Today this collection can be used as a nucleus to develop future scientific research projects. Due to the historical background of the specimens and the scattered locations of additional material from various geologic sites, such projects may have to be realised as a cooperative effort between scientists from several institutions of the Central European countries that were historically involved, namely the Czech Republic, Germany, and Poland. 12 1 2009 276 292 10.17704/eshi.28.2.3n50n2xt0u152u57 https://esh.kglmeridian.com/view/journals/eshi/28/2/article-p276.xml https://esh.kglmeridian.com/view/journals/eshi/28/2/article-p276.xml https://esh.kglmeridian.com/downloadpdf/journals/eshi/28/2/article-p276.xml http://meridian.allenpress.com/esh/article-pdf/28/2/276/1618332/eshi_28_2_3n50n2xt0u152u57.pdf https://esh.kglmeridian.com/downloadpdf/journals/eshi/28/2/article-p276.xml https://pubs.geoscienceworld.org/earth-sciences-history/article/28/2/276/614178/a-truly-european-forest-a-historic-lower-silesian
