- Abstract
The study of museum collections is a permanent concern for us, and the publication for the first time of the data from these collections have scientific, systematic and faunistic importance, providing information about the evolution in time of different species of lepidopterans. This paper aimed to present the collection data for two species belonging to the Genus Vanessa, Vanessa atalanta and Vanessa cardui. The collections of Lepidopterans studied and where these species have been identified are made by: Daniel Czekelius, Eugen Worell, Viktor Weindel, Heinrich Hann von Hannenheim, Rolf Weirauch and Eckbert Schneider. Following the analysis, a total of 101 specimens were concentrated, 52 of the Vanessa atalanta species and 49 specimens of Vanessa cardui. Most of the specimens collected during the time interval between 1904-1984, come from Sibiu and the surroundings of Sibiu or other places in Transylvania. Within the collections, there are also some specimens coming from Dobrogea and Banat but also from other countries such as Republic of Moldova and Spain.
