List of sirenian fossils housed in the "Bethlen Gabor" College in Aiud, Romania.

–Abstract: A museum collection represents an assemblage of cultural and natural goods which can be accessible for both the wider public as well as researchers. The sources which represent the origins of the objects that make up a collection can originate from donations, acquisitions or discoveries resulting from systematic studies in the field. The discovery of a new collection which resides in a museum's depository represents a momentous occasion. The Fuchs Herman Collection, while of a smaller size, contains
 several sirenian fossil remains discovered in areas inside and around Cluj-Napoca by the respective paleontologist, a former teacher at the "Babes-Bolyai" University. The collection itself is of great importance, because it is a part of the "Bethlen G?bor" College school museum's patrimony, from Aiud. To this extent, the collection can help in ensuring the use of new, alternative teaching methods, the consolidation of knowledge and offers the
 possibility for the development of the students' desire to learn. The sirenians from this collection are documented by fragmentary ribs and vertebrae, therefore an assignation
 from systematic viewpoint below the order level is not possible. The target of this paper is the inventory of the sirenian fossils from the Fuchs Herman Collection, thereby contributing to the development of the scholar museum.
