+When you fill a drawer in cabinet eight with a single genus, remove that drawer and sort the genus into the locations in which it was collected. Certain locations will usually go into certain collections, most have tags denoting the collection they are part of, or in ROME's case have a ROM number or IIS number on the insect label, but for those that do not, here is a rough categorization of where they go:
