   The Department of palaeozoology at the Swedish Museum of Natural History
in Stockholm has no indication of formal loans of ammonites to Rousseau
Flower. Neither has the Department of Palaeontology at the University in
Lund or the Swedish Geological Survey.
   However, Rousseau Flower spent more than a month in 1968 travelling
around the Palaeozoic of Sweden together with Dr. Lars Karis
(lkaris@sgu.se) gathering vast collections of cephalopods, mostly of
Ordovician age.
   My question is: How do you know this material is Swedish? If no one
claims it and the material is well labelled the Swedish Museum of Natural
History would be willing to give it a home.
