Bernice Pauahi Bishop Museum (BPBM-ENT)
The Entomology Collection has a long and distinguished record. The J. Linsley Gressitt Center for Research in Entomology serves as the principal U.S.-based entomological resource for documentation of biological diversity and ecosystem studies in the Pacific and Asian regions, and is a major national and international systematic resource. The uniqueness and breadth of the collections and their central Pacific location foster wide international recognition and use, including use as a type and voucher repository.
