When studying the European Caridea of the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie at Leiden and of the Zoological Museum at Amsterdam, some specimens of the genus Pandalina came at hand, which proved to belong to a new species. These specimens had already been reported upon by Hoek (1882), who considered them to be Pandalina brevirostris (Rathke). Comparison with typical specimens of Pandalina brevirostris, however, showed various constant differences, which in my opinion justify the separation of Hoek's specimens as a distinct species. In the present paper an enumeration of the specimens of both species of Pandalina present in the above mentioned Musea is given. Pandalina profunda nov. spec. (fig. 1a-c) Pandalus brevirostris Hoek, 1882, Niederl. Arch. Zool.,... |

In most Dutch scientific and popular books dealing with Polychaeta, the common amphictenid of the Dutch North Sea shore is indicated with the name Pectinaria belgica (Pallas, 1766). In preparing a revision of the Dutch Polychaeta, one of us (J. A. W. L.) studied the extensive collections of Dutch representatives of the family Amphictenidae present in the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie at Leiden and the Zoological Museum at Amsterdam, as well as newly collected material from the Dutch beaches. Comparing these specimens with the account by Fauvel (1927:218225) of the Amphictenidae in the Faune de France, all of the Dutch specimens (with the single exception of a specimen of Pectinaria (Amphictene) auricoma collected in the former Zuiderzee) proved to... |

For about half a year (February-July, 1953) Dr. M. Boeseman, curator of Fishes of the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie, was the guest of the Instituto Tropical de Investigaciones Científicas at San Salvador. During this time Dr. Boeseman made extensive collections in numerous localities throughout the Republic of El Salvador and, though his main attention was directed towards the fishes, an interesting collection of Decapod Crustacea was collected and sent home to Leiden. This collection forms the main subject of the present paper. As Dr. G. Kruseman, curator of Insects of the Zoological Museum at Amsterdam, collected some Decapoda in the same region during his stay in El Salvador in the summer of 1952, this material also is included in the present... |

The present paper is intended to be the first in a series revising the various families of Decapod Crustacea known from the Red Sea. This series is based in the first place on the material brought together by the 1962 and 1965 Israel South Red Sea Expeditions 1) (hereafter indicated as ISRSE I and II respectively), in both of which the author took part. Also Red Sea material from other sources is included, foremost among this is the material from near Elat on the Israel coast of the Gulf of Aqaba brought together by the Zoology Departments of the Universities of Tel-Aviv and Jerusalem. Also all the literature dealing with Red Sea representatives of these groups, as far as known to me, is taken into account. In this way it is hoped to give an accurate... |

Though the number of species of macrurous Decapoda known from subterranean waters is rather extensive, there are surprisingly few species of crabs that have been found in that habitat. Wolf (1934: 105, 106) listed only four species of Brachyura, three of which are epigeal forms, which had only accidentally entered subterranean waters. Hartnoll (1964: 79; in press) made it clear that at that time only three species of crabs could be considered to be truly troglobic: Sesarma jacobsoni Ihle, 1912, which so far is only known from caves in Central Java, Sesarma verleyi Rathbun, 1914, from caves in Jamaica, and Typhlopseudothelphusa mocinoi Rioja, 1953, from a cave in Chiapas, S.E. Mexico. The last mentioned species, which belongs to the family... |

The first species of the genus Enoplometopus to become known to science is E. occidentalis, described in 1840 by J. W. Randall under the name Nephrops occidentalis and said to be "brought from the west coast of North America by Mr. Nuttall" (Randall, 1840: 139). The type locality indication is obvious erroneous as the species does not seem to occur in the eastern Pacific and is quite common in the Hawaiian Islands; as Thomas Nuttall visited the Hawaiian Islands from January to March 1835 and between September 1835 and March 1836, it is most likely that his Enoplometopus material was obtained then. We propose therefore the corrected type locality indication 4'Hawaiian Islands". In 1862 A. Milne Edwards described a second species of the genus, E. pictus, and... |

In a number of widely separated places in the tropics, both in the Atlantic and in the Indo-West Pacific, bright red coloured caridean shrimps have been reported from a most peculiar habitat. This habitat is formed by salt water pools which are seemingly shut off from the sea and are often situated at a considerable distance from the shore; these pools, however, must have an underground connection with the sea as their water level falls and rises with the tides. In several instances the pools are in total darkness (in caves) or in semi-darkness. Apart from this habitat and their red colour, the six species of shrimps so far observed in these pools have very little in common: they belong to 5 different genera and represent 3 different families. All of them... |

On the initiative of Dr. A. D. J. Meeuse investigations were made on the fauna of the greenhouses of several Botanic Gardens in the Netherlands; material was also collected in greenhouses of other institutions and in those kept for commercial purposes. The isopods contained in the collection afforded many interesting species, so for instance six of the species are new for the Dutch fauna, viz., Trichoniscus pygmaeus Sars, Hyloniscus riparius (Koch), Cordioniscus stebbingi (Patience), Chaetophiloscia balssi Verhoeff, Trichorhina monocellata Meinertz and Nagara cristata (Dollfus). Before the systematic review of the species a list of the localities from which material was obtained is given here with enumeration of the collected species. I. Greenhouses of the... |

One of the important features of the mammal collection of the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie is its wealth in old types. This is mainly due to the fact that the first director of the Museum, Coenraad Jacob Temminck (1778-1858), was one of the foremost mammalogists of his time, and during the entire period of his directorship (1820-1858) was very active in improving the mammal collection. He himself described numerous species based on material in the possession of the Museum, but he also acquired type specimens of species described by other zoologists, either through exchange or purchase, or as a gift. Temminck very well realized the importance of types, even though he did not attach to them the great value that we do now. At that time it was not... |

In the collection of the Haifa Sea Fisheries Research Station, among material trawled in Mersin Bay, S. E. Turkey, two Brachyuran crabs were found which prove to be of great interest. One, Actaea rufopunctata (H. Milne Edwards), has a rather wide distribution in both the Atlantic and the Indo-West Pacific regions, but only very few records from the Mediterranean are known as yet. The other, Ixa monodi, a species of IndoWest Pacific origin, is new to science, while the genus to which it belongs is now reported for the first time from the Mediterranean. Actaea rufopunctata rufopunctata (H. Milne Edwards, 1834) (pl. IV fig. 1) An ovigerous female (cb. 20 mm) 1) was trawled in Mersin Bay in August 1954. The specimen fully agrees with the published accounts of... |

A new species of scyllarid lobster, Ibacus chacei, from eastern Australia is described and illustrated. The new species can be distinguished from all other known Ibacus species by the shape of the third maxilliped. Ibacus brevipes Bate, 1888 is recorded from Australia for the first time. Seven out of the eight known species of Ibacus are now recorded from Australia. Colour descriptions, and updated distributions for all Australian Ibacus species are included, plus further comments on the type locality of Ibacus peronii Leach, 1815. Colour illustrations and a key to the eight known species of Ibacus are also provided. |

Shortly after the printing of my 1954 paper on C. S. Rafinesque as a carcinologist (Holthuis, 1954, Zool. Verhand. Leiden, no. 25, pp. 1-43) had been completed, I became aware of the fact that, when preparing the above publication, I unfortunately had overlooked the existence of one more publication by Rafinesque which contains information on Crustacea. The present note deals with this 8th carcinological publication by Rafinesque, the reference to which is the following: 1818 (August). Journal of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia. Vol. i. Part I. Philadelphia. 8 vo. pp. 220, and 9 plates. May to December, 1817. Amer. monthly Mag. crit. Rev., vol. 3, pp. 269-274. A (very) critical review of the publication mentioned in the title of... |

From 30 October to 3 November 1975 an expedition, organized by the Department of Zoology of the University of Tel-Aviv, investigated the marine fauna of the Eastern Mediterranean north of Sinai Peninsula, R.V. "Shikmona" for this purpose was kindly placed at the disposal of the expedition by the Israel Oceanographic and Limnological Research Ltd. The expedition worked on the continental shelf at depths of about 25 to 65 m and its stations (indicated with the letters SIM, for Sinai-Israel-Mediterranean) ranged from 32o 41' to 34o 11Έ. In the collections a species of Alpheus was found which proved to be different from any species so far reported from the Mediterranean. Therefore it was suspected that it was of Indo-West Pacific origin and had migrated from... |

During the summers of 1962 and 1963 the Geologisch en Mineralogisch Instituut of Leiden University and the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie at Leiden carried out a joint exploration of the geology, oceanography and biology of Ria de Arosa, a fiord-like bay in northwestern Spain, north of Vigo. These investigations were not confined to the Ria proper, but also included the affluent rivers like the Rio Ulla and Rio Umia. These explorations will be continued in 1964. In July 1963 a specimen of a peculiar isopod was found by the oceanographic party when exploring the Rio Ulla, a river emptying in the northeastern corner of the Ria de Arosa. This find caused the biologists to give more attention to the locality where the animal was caught and many more... |
