An asterisk (*) following the name denotes an observed fall. Type specimens or 'Name-sakes' for a particular classification are listed in green. Meteorites which are associated with an impact crater of a reasonable size (~8m or more) are listed in red. There is also a list of meteorite name abbreviations used for meteorites from Antarctica and popular desert locations.

Using the left 'Quick Menu' will give you immediate access to a particular classification. (Click here if it does not appear.) If you are trying to find out a particular meteorite's classification you can use your browsers "Find" function which will search and find the meteorite in this main page. I have also created this list to allow for accents to words or letters, so that any search will still recognise the name. This information is a basic listing of most meteorites and which classification they belong to. For more detailed information, there are thousands of various sources available such as books, scientific publications/papers along with other internet sites such as the Natural History Museum (London) and the Meteoritical Bulletin published by the Meteoritical Society.
