Right now there is passage through the tube. If any one has a better idea to keep this file public and free - please do it and please post links! I do not have the rights to this specimen although the scans are my work.

Upload it to Archive.org perhaps?

Not sure exactly how they deal with rights etc., but there are quite a few type specimens up there already.
