| If during one’s work one comes across certain names again and again, names of old collectors, of one’s colleagues in earlier days, who with their private museums laid the foundation of our scientific institutions, one naturally becomes keen on knowing more about them. The results of this curiosity, collected by and by in spare time and sometimes too in time stolen from other more serious occupations, are given here to the public in the hope that they may meet their interest. As to me I thought it a pleasure and certainly worth the trouble. I first collected all that I could find in a casual way and at last I hunted for them more systematically, until the time came that circumstances put an end to it. Incomplete though this list may be, I now send it to the... |

| Since the time of the great geographical discoveries, since Henry the Navigator of Portugal and Christopher Columbus started to open up the whole world to the curiosity of naturalists, the Dutch and the English have played an important role in the explorations of the riches of God’s Nature. The Monarchs were the first to set up collections of animals and other natural curiosities from foreign tropical (and also arctic) countries and from everywhere. We need only remember Albrecht Dürer’s diary from 1520—1521, when he visited the Low Countries. |

| Two species of leeches only have been collected by dr HUMMELINCK in 1936—1937, but these are important as they evidently prove the occurrence in warm tropical waters of species hitherto only recorded from non-tropical areas. Helobdella scutifera is distinguished from H. stagnalis by AUTRUM, 1936, p. 26 and 34, though PAWLOWSKY (cf. AUTRUM 1939, Bronns Kl. u. Ordn., Hirudineae 2, p. 500) considered them synonymous. AUTRUM (l. c. p. 500 and footnote) remarks that H. stagnalis is not known from tropical localities, supposing the habitats in Ecuador, Brasil and Paraguay perhaps to be non-tropical because of their particular position. Our material, however, shows affinities to both species and tends to affirm the identity of H. stagnalis and H. scutifera. It is... |

| After a short illness, Professor de Beaufort died at the age of 89 years at Amersfoort, near his country-home “De Hooge Kley” at Leusden. Born on the 23rd March 1879 at Leusden, Lieven Ferdinand de Beaufort was the son of the historian and statesman W. H. de Beaufort. Growing up on the beautiful estate “Den Treek”, the country-seat of his father, Lieven Ferdinand de Beaufort showed a great interest in nature from his earliest years. After completing his time at the Secondary School (Hogere Burger School) at Amersfoort and gaining additional qualifications in Latin and Greek, in 1899 he became a student at the University of Amsterdam where Max Weber and C. Ph. Sluiter taught zoology, Hugo de Vries and Ed. Verschaffelt botany, and Eug. Dubois geology and... |

| Een feestnummer ter ere van het bereiken van de 70-jarige leeftijd, een mijlpaal, en wel een zeer belangrijke mijlpaal in verband met het daaraan onafwendbaar verbondene emeritaat, verlangt een korte terugblik op alles wat tot nu toe bereikt werd, een verantwoording tevens van de aard dezer publicatie, die een hulde wil zijn van allen, die met de geleerde in aanraking kwamen, als collega’s in binnen- en buitenland, als leerlingen, als vrienden allen. LIEVEN FERDINAND DE BEAUFORT werd geboren de 23e Maart 1879 te Leusden, als zoon van den staatsman en historicus Mr. W. H. DE BEAUFORT. Reeds vroeg trok hem de natuur, die hem door zijn opgroeien op het buiten „Den Treek” bij Amersfoort zo nabij was. Na de H.B.S. te Amersfoort en het z.g. Staatsexamen in 1899... |

| When Clark (1921) cleared the genus Linckia from superfluous synonyms, he could give no opinion on Linckia rosenbergi Von Martens 1866, p. 63 from Amboina. The unique holotype was in the Berlin Museum and hence not easily accessible to him, the species had not been described again. In his key Clark lays the stress on Von Martens' remark: "Die Porenfelder liegen zwischen den zwei Reihen grösserer Plättchen an der Armseite dicht aneinander, ohne alle Unterbrechung (wie bei Ophidiaster suturalis Müll. & Troschel), aber die Poren behalten dieselbe Anordnung in runde Gruppen (Felder) von circa 10 Poren bei". Clark interpreted this as follows: "Poriferous areas between superomarginals and inferomarginals in an unbroken, continuous series, more or less... |

| Es wird Xerobdella-Material aus 11 neuen Fundorten in Jugoslawien erwähnt. Wir wissen leider noch nicht genug über die Variabilität der beiden Xerobdella-Arten (X. lecomtei und X. anulata) um mit Sicherheit sagen zu können ob hier zwei Arten oder zwei Subspecies einer Art vorliegen. Je mehr Exemplare bekannt werden, desto grösser erscheint die Variabilität. Es ist nicht sicher ob wirklich bei allen als X. lecomtei beschriebenen Tieren genau die Zahl der Ringe zwischen den Genitalöffnungen gezählt worden ist. Unsere Exemplare zeigen 4 bis 5 Ringe, während Autrum nur 4½ Ringe für X. anulata angab, dagegen 3 bis 3½ Ringe für X. lecomtei. Vorläufig nennen wir unsere Tiere darum Xerobdella anulata Autrum, 1958, die vermutlich südlich der Julischen Alpen vorkomme. |

| At the request of the Curator of the paleontological collections of Teyler’s Museum, Haarlem, two tests are described belonging to the old collection, described by T.C. Winkler in the ”Catalogue systématique de la collection paléontologique de la Musée Teyler”, Haarlem, 1864, p. 196 under Nr. 10980 as “Cidaris spec.” from Maastricht. Dr. C. O. van Regteren Altena, because they proved to belong to a new species, registered them under the new Nr. 16053. No exact layer in the Cretaceous is mentioned, as stated below they may belong to remaniated Eocene material. For the genus Scutellina L. Agassiz, 1841, we refer to Mortensen’s Monograph of the Eohinoidea IV, 2, 1948, p. 229, and to J. Wyatt Durham’s chapter on the Clypeasteroids in R.C. Moore’s Treatise on... |

| Among a collection of fishes received from a fish dealer, destinated for the Aquarium of the Amsterdam Zoo, Mr. Fr. de Graaf found three nudibranchs. He kindly permitted us to study them alive and afterwards to preserve them in the collections of the Zoological Museum. The specimens were collected in the neighbourhood of Djakarta, Indonesia. Colour paintings were made after the living specimens by our painter Mr. Jos Ruting, who also copied in black and white some drawings — published before — for comparison. The Director of the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie at Leiden, Prof. Dr. L. D. Brongersma and its Curator for molluscs, Dr. C. O. van Regteren Altena, were so kind to put van Hasselt’s original painting of Doris lineolata at our disposal. This... |

| In May 1938 I had the opportunity to observe seven living Aplysia depilans in the Zoological Station Naples. Notes on the size and colour were made and different methods of preservation were tried. As one often wonders how much of the original colour pattern has been preserved in museum specimens of Aplysia, it seems important to give the result of the comparison of the living specimens as studied in 1938 and the same specimens after 18 years of preservation, in 1956. The best way of preservation appears to be killing in diluted alcohol as specimen nr. V shows. |

| Up to now the genus Holectypus Desor (1842, p. 52) 1847, (cf. Mortensen, 1948, Monogr. IV 1, p. 26) in its restricted sense (with 4 genital pores) has not been recorded from the Senonian. So the two specimens described below as H. boschmai nov. spec. may have been remaniated and finally deposited in the Senonian of South-Limburg. They then may belong to the Jurassic species H. corallinus d'Orbigny, 1850. Though the preservation of two other specimens of Holectypus from the Limburg Senonian does not permit to decide whether a fifth genital pore is present, it is presumed there was. These two specimens are described as H. macrostomus nov. spec. As said, up to now no Senonian Holectypus is known with 4 genital pores. Holectypus boschmai nov. spec. (pl. XIV)... |

| Characterized by a small hemispherical test. Ambulacra with simple primaries; pores in a regular, simple series; nearly every ambulacral primary plate with a tubercle. Ambulacra hourglass-shaped, as they are narrower at the ambitus, while the interambulacrals are extraordinarily widened there, extra IA plates wedging in from the borders. IA plates low, each with a horizontal series of tubercles. No clear distinction between primary and secondary tubercles, no distinct vertical series of tubercles. Apical system unknown. Peristome rather large. Spines unknown. |

| 1 specimen, Inhaca Island, Delagoa Bay near Lorenço Marques, coll. Prof. Dr. C. J. van der Horst. This animal closely resembles Ophioteresis elegans Bell, 1892 (Proc. Zool. Soc. London, p. 178, Pl. XI, Fig. 1—5) and Ophiothela tigris (Lyman, 1871, III. Catal. Mus. Comp. Zool. VI, p. 10 in Mem. Mus. Comp. Zool. Harvard Coll. II), both described more in detail by MORTENSEN, 1913 (Mindeskrift for Japetus Steenstrup, X, København). See also SOLLAS, 1914, in Phil. Trans. R. Soc. London, ser. B, vol. 204, Pl. 9, Fig. 2. It differs, however, in having the skin of the upper side of the arms covered by rough thorny nodules, while the smooth grains on the upper side of the disc occur here only between the large radial shields. |

| Professor I. Q. van Regteren Altena was zoo vriendelijk mij een aantal teekeningen ter beschikking te stellen, die eens aan het huis Plantijn moeten toebehoord hebben. Immers, sommige daarvan hebben gediend als voorbeeld voor houtsneden in den Herbarius von Dodonaeus van 1618, gedrukt „t'Antwerpen in de Plantynsche Druckerye van Balthasar Moretus" (zie Engel, in: Ned. Kruidk. Arch. 53, 1943, p. 46-55). Wanneer men de fraaie teekeningen vergelijkt met de reproducties in het Cruydtboeck, is het opvallend, dat de teekeningen losser, zwieriger en natuurlijker zijn, terwijl de houtsneden allerlei wijzigingen vertoonen, die klaarblijkelijk aangebracht werden ten einde de figuur in het formaat van het houtblok te doen passen. Toch komen beide tot in finesses... |

| A beautifully preserved fragment of the test of a fossil Echinoid from the Maestrichtian Cretaceous, found at Belvédère, Caberg and kept in the Natuurhistorisch Museum, Maastricht under no. 1340, differs from the other species of the genus Phymosoma, hitherto described (cf. Fell & Pawson, 1966: U 395). It is a great pleasure to dedicate the description of this obviously new species to my friend and colleague Leo Brongersma in remembrance of the many and wide contacts we enjoyed since I tried and initiated him into the secrets of zoological museumwork, while as a student he occupied an ever increasing space in my room at the Zoological Museum of Amsterdam University. The fragment of this Phymosoma includes an ambulacrum and an interambulacrum and... |

| In March 1958 Dr. J. H. WESTERMANN and Mr. H. KIEL collected some fossil Echinids on the islands of St. Kitts and St. Eustatius. The fossils of St. Kitts were found in a yellow limestone (sample nr. 42), situated on the west flank of Brimstone Hill, belonging to a series of peculiar-looking upturned sedimentary beds, occurring around a volcanic plug (MARTIN-KAYE, 1959). According to C. T. TRECHMANN (1932) the fauna of these beds is put down as Pliocene, possibly late Pliocene. |

| Diagnosis. Aplysiidae of conical form, narrower in front, wide and obliquely truncate behind. Integument more or less warty, the warts bearing villi; warts and villi being wholly retractile. Parapodia united, save for a dorsal slit; the free lobes covering the slit leave two conspicuous respiratory openings, one at the posterior and one at the anterior 'end. The posterior respiratory opening, corresponding to the mantle-siphon, lies about in the middle of the posterior disc, the anterior opening outside the disc, somewhat in front of the disc's anterior margin. Shell solid, hatchetshaped, the free spire calloused. Penis armed or unarmed. Radula with inconspicuous, often reduced rhachidian tooth and many laterals with long simple cusps. Short history of the... |

| The following paper was written in the first place by one of us (H.E.) on the basis of specimens in the Amsterdam and Leiden Museums and on others lent by the Bernice P. Bishop Museum and Dr. W. K. Fisher. The MS was then submitted to the other two authors. One of them (D.D.J.) compared it closely with specimens in the British Museum (Natural History) —fifteen of M. clavigera, the two types of M. victoriae, one specimen each of M. Bradleyi and M. Fisheri—and suggested such alterations and additions as he thought necessary. After a careful study of the types of M. victoriae he concluded that it is safer to regard it as a separate species and added the description given below. In the same way the third author (G. C.) contributed his remarks after the study... |

| Woutera Sophie Suzanna van Benthem Jutting was born 6th February 1899 in Batavia, Island of Java, Netherlands Indies (now Djakarta, Djawa, Indonesia) from Dutch parents. Her father, Wouter Christiaan LL.D. (Leiden), then a member of the High Court of Justice in Batavia, had served his entire career in the Netherlands Indies. Her mother, Sophie Henriëtte Aegidia Bosch, was the daughter of a high-ranking civil officer in the Dutch colonial government. Tera’s father retired in 1900 and returned with his family to the Netherlands, settling first at Nijmegen and later at Heemstede near Haarlem. There, in 1915, Tera’s mother died from tropical spruw, then nearly always fatal. Her father died at Haarlem in 1933. From 1911 until 1916 Tera attended the secondary... |
