Information plates on entomological boxes

Community and Forum → Entomological collections → Information plates on entomological boxes

It's no secret that as the number of identical entomological boxes increases in the collection, there is a problem with quickly finding the right material in them. Information signs indicating what is stored in the box can help you do this.

As a matter of fact, let's share our experience, whether you use them or not, and if so, what you do, how you attach them to boxes, and what you point out to them (up to what taxonomic rank).
If you want, you can share your photos.

The contents of the box are photographed and printed.
The printout on the box is attached or placed in a bag with the box.
I haven't seen anything better yet )))

We write on the label the name that corresponds to the content-family, subfamily, genus, etc.and attach it in any convenient way (with tape, etc.) to the visible part of the box. Imho, nothing complicated.

Family, genus, etc. taxa are engraved on a metal plate (e.g. brass), which looks noble to me.
