The Biological Society of Washington - an international society of biologists whose primary interests center on the taxonomy and systematics of eukaryotic organisms. Members publish their observations in the Society's quarterly journal, the Proceedings of the Biological Society of Washington. Larger studies, symposia proceedings, and special collections of studies are published from time to time in the Society's Bulletin of the Biological Society of Washington.

Paleoinformatics -- Online Museum Catalogs

Peabody Museum of Natural History, Yale University - located in New Haven, Connecticut. Click here to search the invertebrate paleontology data base. For example, use the HigherRanks field and search for Stelleroidea in their data base.

Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University - located in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Click here to search the invertebrate paleontology data base. For example, search for Asteroidea in their data base. It is worth mentioning that the Department of Invertebrate Paleontology has an off-line database that exceeds the on-line database.

Carnegie Museum of Natural History - located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Click here to search the invertebrate paleontology type specimen data base. For example, select Eugasterella in the genus field, and select "list all" for remaining fields.

Muséum d'histoire naturelle de la Ville de Genève - Le département de Géologie et de Paléontologie du Muséum possède plus de 200'000 échantillons de roches sédimentaires et de fossiles d'invertébrés et de vertébrés, d'âges mésozoïque et cénozoïque surtout. Click here to search the data base. For example, search on Stelleroidea in their data base.

University of California Museum of Paleontology - located in Berkeley, California. Click here to search the paleontology specimen data base. For example, select Asteroidea in the Class field, and click the search button.

Florida Museum of Natural History - located at the University of Florida in Gainesville, Florida. Click here to search the invertebrate paleontology specimen data base. For example, select phylum Echinodermata, class Asteroidea, period Devonian, and click the "search catalog" button.

Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County - in California. Click here to search the invertebrate paleontology specimen data base. For example, for Taxon Name select Level "class" and for Name type Ophiuroidea; for all of the Paleozoic select Upper Age as youngest Permian which is given as Tatarian, and select Lower Age as Proterozoic; do not check "this exact age range"; now click the "search" button.

Trans'Tyfipal is a versatile and open database on the TYpes and FIgurated specimens of PALeontology housed in the different paleontological French collections. These specimens - macrofossils and microfossils - are the official and universal references that any paleontologist has to refer before any publication of a paper. This national database associates the laboratories of Paleontology of Dijon, Lille, Lyon, Rennes, the laboratory of Geology of the Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle de Paris (M.N.H.N) and the Association Géologique Auboise (Troyes). Click here for the portal to the data base. Gain access by clicking the OK button for "Non authorized people". For example, search for phylum Echinodermata, class Stylophora, and click the OK button.

The Paleobiology Database - The Database is an NSF-funded project involving more than 70 professional scientific researchers and scores of graduate students. Its goal is to provide global, collection-based occurrence and taxonomic data for marine and terrestrial animals and plants of any geological age.
