Collection methods and comments
| Collection methods: | survey of museum collection |
| Reason for describing collection: | taxonomic analysis |
| Collection method comments: This collection gathers all the specimens that could not be assigned to any of the other Egerkingen collections (fissures alpha, beta, etc...) based on the aspect of the fossils and the nature of the matrix. It is a collection 'by default' but that belongs to the Egerkingen fissure complex. | |
