Description:
Richard Frey's worldwide Diptera collection. Ca. 10.000 species, including type material of some 700 taxa. Mostly material acquired by Frey, but some species have been added in the 1960s. After Frey's death, the Finnish material has been removed and placed in the Diptera East Fennoscandia collection of MZH.
A preliminary catalogue of species/taxa names is available for this collection: https://tietopankki.luomus.fi/species-lists-in-luomus/insect-lists-of-luomus-collections/coll-richard-frey-mzh-fmnh-luomus-taxon-list-part-1-xylophagidae-to-dolichopodidae/. See links on the page for subsequent parts of the catalogue.
A majority of the type specimens have been databased, but not photographed. Data is available through GBIF (dataset https://www.gbif.org/dataset/489cf6d8-4171-46bd-94b1-ca514fb2043f) and the Finnish National Biodiversity Portal FinBIF (https://laji.fi/en/observation/map?collectionId=HR.163).

Notes about the data:
Identification reliability varies strongly within the collection. A few families or other taxa have been recently examined and re-identified, but most are in need of revision.
With few exceptions, all Finnish material originally kept in Coll. Frey have been moved into the MZH/Luomus Diptera Fennica collection.
