Confusion: Senckenberg runs multiple collections, one of which is SMF[edit]
The SMF refers to the Senckenberg Museum in Frankfurt. The Senckenberg Nature Research Society is its parent organisation, which now runs a number of other institutes spread right across Germany, including the Senckenberg Museum of Natural History Görlitz (SMNG) and the Senckenberg Natural History Collections Dresden. The collections of these institutes are not integrated, have separate curators, and physically remain in cities hundreds of kilometres apart. Thus I don't think it makes sense to consider them as part of the SMF. Rather they are sister institutes. I have amended the article where SMNG and SNSD are listed, but this probably needs to be done for some of the other acronyms. And maybe something more fundamental is required.
