I am going to become a biology teacher and am looking for preserved specimens to use as visuals.

Specifically, I would like a specimen of P. Negriveter or P. Fera, and L. quinestriatus or O. Doriae preserved in alcohol.

I'm poor at the moment so I won't be able to pay a lot for these specimens, although I'll gladly pay for cheap shipping.

I know that P. Negriveter is commonly raised by people on the boards, as are the scorpions I mentioned.

I'd even trade mealworms or superworms (when the superworms I just started get past the microscopic stage). :D

Oh, and I believe Peter_Parker is, as well.

I appreciate any help.

Heh Heh, thanks for letting everyone know I'm looking for them too :D It's a long shot, but I've had luck getting specimens from petbugs.com in the past. Once a guy's power went out or something and almost his ENTIRE collection perished. I felt sorry for him, but hey, I made off with a ton of great specimens from him :D However some people may not want their "Beloved deceased pet" to become a carcass in some museum, but most don't care too much, especially since we're using them for educational purposes. Try it out!
