This award allow the establishment of a regional archival center for early life history stages of fishes (eggs and larvae) of the Pacific Northwest at the University of Washington. The project will consolidate and curate 7 individual collections now at UW (1 at School of Fisheries; 2 at School of Oceanography; 1 at Int. Pac. Halibut Comm.) and a t government agencies (3 at Alaska Fisheries Science Center) in the Seattle area. The consolidated collection -- 48,000 lots -- will be the third largest fish egg and larval holdings in the U.S. The collection transfers have the written approval and recommendation of the USNM, the National Marine Fisheries Service of NOAA and the IPHC. The USNM is not in position to accommodate these collections; but, as required by law, a representative collection of the holdings at the National Marine Fisheries Service will be made available to the USNM. Each of the separate collections will now receive far better curatorial care and more research use in the archival center. The increased availability of a reorganized, integrated collection will help fill the demand for larval fish specimens for research and education in ecology, systematics, embryology and morphology and will also promote ontogenetic studies.

该奖项允许在华盛顿大学建立太平洋西北地区鱼类（卵和幼虫）早期生活史阶段的区域档案中心。该项目将整合和管理目前在西澳大学的7个个人藏品(1个在渔业学院，2个在海洋学院，1个在Int。Pac. Halibut Comm.)和西雅图地区的一家政府机构（阿拉斯加渔业科学中心的3家）。合并后的藏品——48000件——将成为美国第三大鱼卵和幼虫库。藏品转移得到了USNM、NOAA国家海洋渔业局和IPHC的书面批准和推荐。USNM无法容纳这些藏品；但是，根据法律要求，国家海洋渔业局将向美国海洋管理局提供具有代表性的馆藏。每一个单独的收藏现在都将得到更好的策展照顾，并在档案中心得到更多的研究利用。重新组织的综合收集的增加将有助于满足生态学、系统学、胚胎学和形态学方面的研究和教育对仔鱼标本的需求，并将促进个体发生研究。
