A new species of slipper lobster is described from Saint Helena, where the species seems to be endemic. Known under the vernacular name Stump, the species forms the subject of a local fishery, carried out since early times. Previously the species has been identified with various Scyllarides species from the Atlantic and East Africa.

The Talaud Islands are forming part of the Malay Archipelago, being situated north of Celebes and the Moluccas, south of Mindanao and east of the Sangihe group, between 3°45’ and 5°35’ N. lat. and 126°32’ and 127°10’ E. long. The main group consists of three larger islands, viz. Karakelong, Salebaboe and Kaboeroeang. The Nenoesa islands, a group formed by the small islands of Garete, Karaton, Merampi, Mengkopoe, Intata, Kakelotan and Maroh are situated northeast of the main group, including also Miangas (Palmas), an islet about 65 miles north of Karakelong, near Mindanao.

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...

Under the auspices of Leiden University and with the financial aid of various organisations and institutions, Messrs. E. Hennipman, P. Nijhoff, C. Swennen, A. S. Tulp, W. J. M. Vader, and W. J. J. O. de Wilde, most of whom are biological students of Leiden University, made a collecting trip to Turkey from March to July 1959. Extensive collections of plants and animals from Turkey were brought together, while moreover incidental collecting was done on the way home in Greece and Jugoslavia. A narrative of this trip will be published by Nijhoff & Swennen. The Decapod and Stomatopod Crustacea brought home by the expedition form an extensive and well preserved collection, which contains many very interesting items. It is gratifying to see that...

Introduction. — By far the most important and fundamental carcinological publication of the first half of the 19th century unquestionably is Henri Milne Edwards's (1834-1840) "Histoire naturelle des Crustacés", which treated all species of Crustacea known at that time in an exceedingly clear and comprehensive manner. The work was published in three volumes of text and one atlas. The dates of publication of it have never caused any difficulty. It was generally accepted that volume I was published in 1834, volume II in 1837, and volume III in 1840. These dates have never been challenged, and on closer examination indeed prove to be correct. About the date or dates of the atlas authors were vague and usually cited 1834-1840, or 1840, or they cited the atlas...

Interessante waarnemingen van epizoïsche kreeftachtigen op zeezoogdieren langs de Nederlandse kust (Cirripedia, Amphipoda) In de tweede helft van 2003 spoelden twee juveniele bultruggen Megaptera novaeangliae (Borowski, 1781) aan op de Nederlands kust, de eerste op 7 oktober op de Maasvlakte net ten zuiden van de ingang tot de haven van Rotterdam, de tweede op 20 december nabij Katwijk, Zuid Holland. Deze soort was nog niet eerder gemeld van de Nederlandse kust. Op de bultruggen werden vier soorten kreeftachtigen gevonden: Conchoderma auritum, Coronula diadema, C. reginae en Cyamus boopis. De laatste drie soorten zijn nieuw voor de Nederlandse fauna. Exemplaren van de parasieten zijn opgenomen in de collectie van het Nationaal Natuurhistorisch...

INTRODUCTION Ligur uveae is generally considered an anchialine species (found in land-locked, generally supralittoral saltwater pools) with the type locality given simply as "Uvea, Loyalty Islands" by Borradaile (1899). The species is widely distributed geographically, although locally evidently confined to a very restricted habitat. Its known range extends from the western Indian Ocean to Polynesia: Aldabra, western Indian Ocean (Borradaile, 1917; Gordon, 1936); Halmahera, northern Moluccas, Indonesia (Holthuis, 1947; 1963); Uvea, Loyalty Islands (Borradaile, 1899; Gordon, 1936); Sayawa Islet near Uvea (Monod, 1968); Vatulele Island, Fiji Archipelago (Gordon, 1936; Derrick, 1957; Marden, 1958; Reed & Hames, 1967); Vanua Vatu and Vanua Levu Islands,...

Changes in the nomenclature of the Orang Utan recently proposed by Röhrer-Ertl are shown to be unnecessary. The generic name Pongo Van Wurmb, 1784, for the genus, P.s. satyrus Linnaeus, 1758, for the Sumatran subspecies, and P.s. borneensis Van Wurmb, 1784, for the Bornean subspecies, as used by Röhrer-Ertl all are invalid, and should be replaced by the correct traditional names, Pongo Lacépède, 1799, for the genus, P.p. pygmaeus (Linnaeus, 1760) for the Bornean subspecies, and P.p. abelii Lesson, 1827, for the Sumatran subspecies.

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...

The present paper is based mainly on material collected at the Canary Islands during the spring of 1947 by Dr. G. Thorson of Universitetets Zoologiske Museum at Copenhagen and Dr. C. O. van Regteren Altena of the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie at Leiden. Most of the specimens were collected by Dr. Thorson, who devoted almost all of his time to the study of the litoral fauna, while Dr. Van Regteren Altena studied the inland fauna and only made occasional visits to the sea shore. The shrimp fauna of the Canary Islands is very poorly known. In 1839 Erulle, in the large work of Webb and Berthelot on the Natural History of the Canary Islands, listed 5 species of Caridea and since that time just two more species have been added to the list. The material...

The study of the older literature on Crustacea, from Linnaeus (1758) to H. Milne Edwards (1837), has been much neglected by modern carcinologists. A result of this is that many wrong names at present are used, especially for European species. The European species namely were most extensively studied by the older authors, while moreover in the middle of the previous century handbooks on the carcinological fauna of several parts of Europe were published (for instance Bell's (1844-1853) "A History of the British stalk-eyed Crustacea", and Heller's (1863) " Die Crustaceen des südlichen Europa"), which for many authors made a consultation of older works superfluous. It is astonishing to note how many names at present are used incorrectly for species of the...

In 1880, 1881, and 1882 the French research vessel "Travailleur" explored the deep waters of the Bay of Biscay (1880, 1881, 1882), off the Portuguese coast (1881, 1882), the Mediterranean (1881) and the eastern Atlantic from the Bay of Biscay as far south as the Canary Islands (1882). In 1883 the "Travailleur" was replaced by the larger "Talisman", which ship explored the eastern Atlantic between the Bay of Biscay and the Cape Verde Islands, visiting also the Azores, and going as far west as 31°34'N 41°15'W (of Greenwich = 43°35'W of Paris; the longitudes of the "Travailleur" and "Talisman" stations were always given relative to Paris). A select company of French zoologists was on board the "Talisman" on her (June-August) 1883 cruise. Among these...

De schipper bracht het dier levend naar het Nederlands Instituut voor Onderzoek der Zee (N.I.O.Z.) te Den Helder, waar het direct in een aquarium geplaatst werd. Het dier bleef bijna twee maanden in leven en stierf op 4 april 1974. Het behield zijn blauwe kleur tot het laatst. Jammer genoeg vervelde het dier niet, zodat het niet bekend is welke invloed het vervellen op de kleur heeft. Mej. S.

INTRODUCTION From mid-January 1961 until the end of 1966 macroplankton was collected by the crew of "Texel" lightship (position: 53°01'30"Ν 04°22' E) and identified afterwards in the Nederlands Instituut voor Onderzoek der Zee, at that time still in Den Helder. The nets, of Saran gauze with a 2 mm mesh and an opening of 1 m2, were originally intended for catching elvers, for investigations reported upon by Creutzberg, 1961. The original aim of the present plankton project was to catch Scyphomedusae, but soon after it had been started all the available macroplankton was sorted out and, if possible, identified. This explains why the decapod larvae, dealt with in the present paper, came to be collected by nets, quite unfit for that purpose. When the meshes...

Alpheus saxidomus new species, a rock boring snapping shrimp from the Pacific coast of, Costa Rica, with notes on Alpheus simus Guérin-Méneville, 1856

Recently, Professor Dr. Rudolf Fischer, Institut für Geologie und Paläontologie, Philipps-Universität, Marburg, F. R. Germany, submitted for identification some material of an Alpheid shrimp, which was found to be responsible for a considerable erosion of part of a rocky shore on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica. The species proved to be new to science, while also the rock-boring activities seem hitherto to be unknown for the Alpheidae, or, for that matter, for Decapod Crustacea as a whole. The new species proves to be closely related to Alpheus simus Guérin-Méneville from the Caribbean area, but it shows minor, but evidently constant differences. It is a great pleasure to thank Professor Fischer for his kindness in allowing me to study this material and...
