| In 1904 Mr. J. W. van Nouhuys, the commander of the steamer which brought the Wichmann-expedition in 1903 along the northcoast of New Guinea to the Humboldt Bay, presented to the Zoological Garden at Rotterdam a young cassowary; this bird lived there till May 1907, when it died and when it was, by the kindness of Dr. Büttikofer, the director of the Garden, sent to our Museum. The bird, a male, is now at least four years old; it is full-grown, though its plumage is not yet entirely black, but here and there, and especially between the so-called tailfeathers, some brown feathers are still to be seen. With a few words Mr. Lorentz makes mention of this bird in his narrative ¹) of the expedition, but he does not say, where the bird was caught. As Mr. van... |

| Je rapporte au Lasiodactylus maculosus Olliff (Notes Leyden Museum, VI, 1884, p. 74) sous le nom de variété L. nitidus Grouv., un nombre relativement considérable de Lasiodactyles provenant de Sumatra: Pajakombo. Ces insectes présentent la forme allongée du L. maculosus, la disposition des taches des élytres, etc., mais ils ont la ponctuation du prothorax plus serrée sur le disque. Chez le L. maculosus (ex. type du Musée de Leide) la ponctuation du prothorax devant l’écusson laisse entre les points des intervalles plus grands que les points, tandis que chez le L. nitidus cette ponctuation est uniformément très serrée. L’exemplaire type du L. maculosus Olliff, qui m’a été obligeamment communiqué par Mr. C. Ritsema, n’est pas opaque comme l’indique la... |

| Having recently 1) tried to bring some order into the great confusion, existing in the systematic literature on the Heteropods, and to eliminate some of the difficulties, which the investigator of this group of animals is sure to encounter with, I have been convinced, more than anybody else, that my study could have nothing but a provisional value, and that a firmer base could only be obtained by means of continued labour, and comparison of more material. For a systematic revision I have chosen the family Atlantidae. These animals with their tiny, inconspicuous shells, have received but little attention, and after Souleyet’s memorable work, more than half a century ago, only very few naturalists have dealt with the group. Among them I may name Gould,... |

| Horn, Walther. |
| I got some specimens of Cosmema auropunctata Qued. from my friend Dr. Cr. Wellman, who captured them in Angola (Chiyaka district: XI, 1907). The material enables me to give some additional notes to the author’s description. The »rib« of the elytra is a narrow smooth stripe, just a little elevated in the middle of its breadth. The margin of the elytra, outwards from the white longitudinal line, is glossy blackish, almost polished, sparingly and finely punctured; the disk is dull brownish with greenish rougher sculpture: about as densely but less deeply punctured as in C. Gruti Chd. The ♂ ♂ have narrower elytra than the ♀ ♀, their tips tapering (in the ♀ narrowly rounded) without spine. Underside bald, blue-blackish, base of femora not testaceous. Whole... |

| During a visit to the Leyden Museum I found in the collection a Coleotichus from the Samoa-islands which on examination appeared to represent a new species of this genus. When preparing my Monograph of the Coleotichus (Annales Musei nationalis Hungarici, III, pp. 317 — 361, pls. VIII et IX, 1905) I did not see any material from the Samoa-islands and it is quite interesting to find the genus is represented there by a new species. In my opinion this is certainly one of the intermediate forms which are to be found between the splendid C. Blackburni from Hawaii and the australasian Coleotichus. This new Coleotichus was collected at Savaii, Samoa, by Mr. W. von Bülow, after whom, at the request of Mr. Ritsema, I have named the species C. Bülowi, I append here a... |

| La collection conchyliologique du Musée d’Histoire Naturelle des Pays-Bas est d’origine très hétérogène. Au premier lieu elle dérive du Cabinet de Zoologie, d’Anatomie Comparée et de Minéralogie de l’Université de Leide, qui surtout sous la direction du professeur Brugmans (1786—1819) s’était énormément développé¹). Une autre collection d’objets d’histoire naturelle, sous le nom de „’s Lands Cabinet” était conservée au Trippenhuis à Amsterdam. Ces collections, combinées avec le Cabinet du Prince Guillaume V et la riche collection d’Oiseaux de C. J. Temminck, forment le noyau du „Ryks Museum van Natuurlijke Historie”, institué par décret royal du 9e Août 1820. En 1822 le Musée s’enrichissait des collections, formées par le Professeur C. G. C. Reinwardt 2)... |

| The material of Pteropoda in the collection of the Leydeu Museum is rather poor and consists only of a few species, one of which, however, is new to science, while others are rarely met with. So I think it to be not wholly destitute of importance to enumerate the different forms, as it gives rise to some remarks on morphology as well as on distribution, which will follow after the systematic part. A large deal of the collection was supplied during the last few years by Mr. P. J. Buitendijk, physician at the Royal Steam-Shipping Company » Nederland”, to whom the Museum is indebted for his zealous collecting zoologica, on his periodical travels to the East- and West-Indies and viceversa. As circumstances, however, allowed him to ellect occasional hauls at... |

| Jacobson, Edw.. |
| In dem Bande XXV (1905), Note IX (pp. 133—140), teilte ich einen Brief von Herrn Edw. Jacobson über das Spinnvermögen von Polyrhachis dives Sm. (Java) mit. Seither hat Doflein im Biolog. Centralblatt, 1905, N°. 15 (S. 497— 507) interessante Detailbeobachtungen darüber geboten, wie Oecophylla smaragdina F. auf Ceylon die zerrissenen Gespinnstnester mittelst ihrer Larven wieder zusammenspinnt, die sie dabei als „Spinnrädchen” gebraucht. Dadurch sind Ridley’s und Holland’s ältere Beobachtungen für diese Ameise vollauf bestätigt worden. Ueber dasselbe Verfahren bei der australischen „grünen Baumameise” Oecophylla virescens F.) berichtete Dodd 1) aus Australien schon 1902. Genau so verfährt auch die afrikanische Oecophylla longinoda Ltr. nach den Beobachtungen... |

| Mr. G. S. Miller Jr. from the Washington Museum, presently studying in the British Museum, fixed my attention upon a paper, published in 1841 by de Sélys Longchamps, relating an Arvicola represented in the Leyden Museum and described by him as new under the name of A. arenicola; Mr. Miller suggested that my A. ratticeps (Tijdschrift der Nederl. Dierk. Vereenigiug, Deel V, 1881, p. 105) might be arenicola de Sélys. The original description by de Sélys runs as follows (Bulletins de l’Académie Royale des Sciences et Belles-lettres de Bruxelles, Année 1841, Tome VIII, 2me Partie, p. 236): » Un Arvicola que je n’ai pas encore décrit et désigne » sous le nom d ’Arvicola arenicola. Je l’ai vu cette année » au Musee de Leyde. Cette espece, qui a été recueillie »... |

| Examining a collection of Annelida from the Zuiderzee I met with several individuals of a think can only be Nereis-species, that I N. succinea Leuck. Yet this worm is a somewhat mysterious species, first described by Leuckart in his „Verzeichniss der zur Fauna Helgoland’s gehörenden wirbellosen Seethiere” 1) and, though this author stated that it was very common at Cuxhaven, it appears afterwards only to have been collected again near Norderney by Dr. Metzger 2). At least in Michaelsen’s „Polychaetenfauna der deutschen Meere” 3) it is not mentioned in the „Tabelle der untersuchten Polychaeten” and the only locality, quoted by him, is Helgoland. The detailed description of N. succinea, published by Ehlers in his Borsteuwürmer 4), was based on Leuckart’s... |
