The materials are taken directly to a laboratory on deck. After being sorted to eliminate useless residue, the materials for zoology are sent to the central laboratory, whilst those for oceanography go to a third laboratory.
The musuem houses tens of thousands of specimens and even today, researchers come to Monaco from all over the world.

Interesting! I was there 1 hour before closing time which was not enough as they closed parts of the exhibition already 15 min before official closing time. So I couldn't see this floor here.
You had luck that you could take the photos without people around... Thanks for showing!

I hope that in the early days of examining ocean specimens they had a way to preserve them, or it could be a long voyage back to the museum.
Fascinating place!
