I don't know if this is the right forum for this but i visited the Sea Aquarium, Bergen aan Zee in the Netherlands some days ago and took some pictures of the mollusks and shells in the collection. Including the labels so i could upload some of them on wikipedia . I'm not an expert but a lot of the labels don't seem to match the represented species. Some are old scientific names (according to WoRMS) a lot of them are misspelled (as if the labels used to be handwritten ?) and often they just depict another species (when I look at the pictures i find via google.)

Might be a good idea to have an expert look at that ?

Regards,
Bart
 
Zoosigns are also only made by people and so errors can occur (source: I make the signs here at our zoo).

The best way would be to write them a nice email.
