Abstract:

ABSTRACT: Louis Fraser, sometime curator of the museum of the Zoological Society of London, was described by his contemporaries as a protégé of the 13th Earl of Derby, an “excellent naturalist”, a “zoological traveller” and the author and publisher of Zoologica typica. Published sources provide some information about Fraser but it is not entirely supported by papers in the Public Record Office, Kew, by the minutes of the council meetings of the Zoological Society of London and by Lord Derby's correspondence held at Liverpool and Philadelphia. Fraser corresponded with Lord Derby for eleven years between 1840 and 1851 and his letters to Lord Derby, together with other archives, provide a more accurate and detailed account of this eventful decade of his life, which included his experiences as zoologist on the 1841 naval expedition to the River Niger and his visit to Tunisia in 1846 collecting for Lord Derby about which, hitherto, little has been written.

Abstract:

The State Zoological Museum and the Establishment of the Polish Academy of Sciences: The Beginnings of the Institute of Zoology of the Polish Academy of Sciences The State Zoological Museum, established in 1928, inherited and developed the legacy of the Zoological Cabinet of the University of Warsaw (existing since 1818). The Cabinet’s collection had been gathered for decades and belonged to eminent personages not only in Poland but also in Europe. The Museum and its collections were threatened many times: first by a great fire in 1935, then by the German attack on Warsaw in 1939 and subsequent occupation, as well as by the outbreak of the Warsaw Uprising and the destruction of the city. After the post-war reconstruction of the Museum, it was time to function in a new political reality, in which the most significant change for this institution was the establishment of the Polish Academy of Sciences. A planned inclusion of the State Zoological Museum in the structures of the newly-founded Polish Academy of Sciences meant that the scientists had to face a dilemma: in exchange for research funds and career development opportunities, they were expected to show favour to the communists and readiness to implement the idea of socialism. In the background of this process, numerous scientific conferences took place, where controversial visions of the future of biological sciences clashed. This process resulted in the transformation of the State Zoological Museum into the Institute of Zoology of the Polish Academy of Sciences.

Abstract:

This paper considers some aspects of the history of the Zoological Museum and the Zoological Institute of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, which appeared on its base in 1931, during two decades following the outbreak of the First World War. It deals with the scientific, social and political consequences caused for the Zoological Museum by the First World War, two Revolutions of 1917 and subsequent Civil War. The paper describes establishment of the Museum’s Council, which ruled from 1917 to 1930, and an attempt to evacuate collections in 1917, as well as conditions under which the Museum zoologists had to work in the period of the wars and revolutions. The first years of the restoration of normal work of the Zoological Museum after the Civil War are considered, as well as the effects of the flood, which damaged the Ichthyological, Herpetological and Osteological departments of the Museum in 1924. The renaming of the Museum into the Institute during the reform of the Academy of Sciences in 1929–1934 is discussed as well as layoffs and repressions during this reform. The paper considers changes in the Exhibition Department, made on demand of the authorities. The information is given about the Faunistic Conference of 1932, which was hosted by the Zoological Institute of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR under the slogan for “the Party’s” and “Bolshevik’s faunistic studies”.

Abstract:

While Secretary of the Zoological Society of London (1935–42), Julian Huxley used that institution to undertake several types of reform related to his promotion of ‘general biology’. Huxley's goal was to place synthetic, analytical and explanatory work at the centre of the life sciences. Here, zoological specifics served only as instances of generic processes. Huxley's campaigning fitted both into his own lifelong obsession with synoptic views and into much larger transformations in the epistemic culture of the life sciences during the interwar years. However, such campaigns also had their detractors, and the Zoological Society of London provides a superb example of the backlash provoked against these reforms. In 1942 that backlash led directly to Huxley's dismissal as Secretary of that society. This episode serves as a reminder to understand the plurality of views in play during any historical period. In this case, general biology was resisted in a factional dispute over what should be the priority of the life sciences: objects versus processes, induction versus explanation, and particulars versus generics.

Abstract:

E. F. Martynova (1970) described two species of Protura from the Tian-Shan Mountains of Kyrgyzstan: Hesperentomon tianschanicum and Acerella montana. The descriptions are now outdated due to progress in proturan taxonomy in the last three decades, and the systematic position of A. montana is unclear. I redescribe A. montana based on the holotype female and another specimen mounted on the same slide. This slide is preserved in the Zoological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, St. Petersburg, Russia. The paratypes were not marked. I thank the head curator of Zoological Institute RAS, Dr. V.A. Krivokhatsky, Dr. V. Kuznetsova (St. Petersburg) and Dr. A. Nadachovska (Krakow) for their kindness and help. This work was supported by grant NN303 0683 34 from the Ministry of Science and Higher Education, Poland.

Abstract:

The most important zoological collection in London outside of the British Museum was that established by the Zoological Society of London. It was to have only a fleeting existence of 30 years from its foundation in 1825. Yet in that short space of time, its collections of vertebrate specimens came to rival those of the British Museum both in volume and in taxonomic value, and attracted visiting workers from Europe to study its specimens. To some extent its extraordinary success was due to the high calibre of its contributors during the expansionist and exploratory period of the British Empire, but the quality of its curatorial staff played an important role in its success. Well within the three decades of its lifespan inadequate funding leading to difficulties with accommodation and insufficient spending on the care of the specimens caused the collection to deteriorate. Within the administrative priorities of the Society the Museum took second place to the Menagerie and by 1854 the dispersal of the collection had commenced. Some of the material came to the British Museum but not all the important specimens. Many specimens including type material and historically important collections were dispersed to relatively obscure local collections in which their importance has been lost sight of, if it was ever recognized. This paper outlines the history of the Zoological Society's Museum, discusses the importance of its holdings and assesses the contribution that it made to the collections of the British Museum.

Full text

Abstract:

Brian Houghton Hodgson's “Zoology of Nipal” is one of the great “what ifs” of nineteenth-century natural history. The product of over 20 years' research, incorporating thousands of pages of notes and drawings that detailed many species new to European science, it was intended to be the standard work on Himalayan animals. However, it was never published, and Hodgson gave up his zoological studies after 1859. Based on research at the Zoological Society of London, which holds eight albums of Hodgson's drawings, this paper explores and analyses the scientific and institutional factors that shaped Hodgson's work on Himalayan fauna. It sets Hodgson in the context of colonial natural history, demonstrating that he was able to keep up-to-date with the fierce debates that transformed zoology in London's scientific institutions. In particular, Hodgson's admiration for the Quinarian ideas of William Sharp Macleay, Nicholas Aylward Vigors and William Swainson is identified as key to his own attempts to classify Himalayan animals, supported by an analysis of the form and content of his collections of zoological illustrations. As well as seeking to broaden our understanding of Hodgson himself, this review seeks to demonstrate the potential of zoological imagery to throw a new light on pre-Darwinian natural history, a complex field with considerable scope for further study.

Abstract:

The turbulent history of Warsaw resulted in great losses in Polish zoological museums and archives especially during First and Second World War (Kazubski 1996; Fedorowicz & Feliksiak 2016). However, before 1939 Warsaw’s zoological collection deposited in the State Zoological Museum (now called: the Museum and Institute of Zoology Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw—MIZ PAS), especially the department of neotropics, used to be one of the best developed and well cataloged collections in Europe. There were also many holotypes of mammal species stored here after Polish expeditions to the neotropics. As a result of these events current bibliography and on-line databases (GBIF, VertNet) up to now did not mention the location of holotypes of collected taxa or even recognize them as missing (Ramírez-Chavez et al. 2014; Patton et al. 2015). We reviewed the collection to estimate the presence and status of the surviving descriptive types (holotypes). The aim of this study was to order our knowledge about the holotypes taking into account especially information about lost specimens and to explain the contradictory information about their status in the present. In 2015–2016 all type specimens in the MIZ PAS collection of neotropical mammals were revised. During revision relevant information from specimen labels was compared with the data provided in the original descriptions contained in publications from the end of nineteenth century (Taczanowski 1881; Thomas 1884; Stolzmann 1885; Thomas 1893; 1894). The results were compared with the collection databases of the Natural History Museum in London (http://data.nhm.ac.uk). Systematics and species nomenclature were followed by Wilson & Reeder (2005). Zoological nomenclature types were followed by International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN). The results of the revision are presented as a systematic list.

Abstract:

The zoological relationships between the Zoological Institute and the Museum of the Russian Academy of Sciences, St. Petersburg (ZISP), and the Zoologisches Forschungsmuseum A. Koenig, Bonn (ZFMK), started with Alexander Koenig who was born in St. Petersburg in 1858. Together with his family he moved to Bonn in 1867 where he later became an ornithologist who founded his own zoological museum in this city in 1912. 11 years after his death (1940), a herpetological department was founded, and a close cooperation between the herpetology departments of his museum and that of his home city began to develop, first only by correspondence. In 1981 a first personal contact became possible in Budapest and could be intensified after 1988 by several mutual visits to St. Petersburg and Bonn, respectively. Further contacts happened during congresses, primarily those of the European Herpetological Society (SEH) where representatives of both institutions served also as presidents. Scientific contacts culminated in two well-attended international symposia on agamid lizards in both cities.

Abstract:

Since 1993, the first zoological journal Selevinia has been launched in Almaty. Selevinia publishes articles in various branches of zoology, including taxonomy, fauna, parasitology, and many others. The articles published in the journal contain information on the fauna of Kazakhstan and neighbouring countries. Articles on the fauna, as well as on ecology and animal behaviour predominate. In total, 963 scientific works (495 articles, 155 short reports, and 313 notes) were published in the first 20 volumes of the journal (1993–2013), including 132 theriological articles. A bibliographic review of theriological articles is given, in particular about the composition of fauna (3) and on several species of different systematic groups, e.g. rodents and bats (5), ungulates (5), and carnivorans (16). Among the latter, articles on representatives of the family Felidae predominate, such as on the Turkestan lynx (Lynx lynx isabellinus), the caracal (Lynx caracal), the African wildcat (Felis lybica), the snow leopard (Uncia uncia), and the leopard (Panthera pardus). All issues of the journal are freely available online. According to the interlibrary exchange, the journal reaches 63 libraries in 35 countries. Some articles are published in English, the rest having English summary that facilitates access by foreign readers to scientific articles published in the journal. Selevinia issues for 2012-2019 are posted electronically with full access to texts on several websites, including the websites of the Institute of Zoology of Kazakhstan, the Central Scientific Library of the Academy of Sciences of Kazakhstan, and the Kazakhstan Association for Biodiversity Conservation.

Abstract:

Zoological collections house a huge range of biological diversity preserved in a wide variety of ways ranging from microscope mounts to whole animals preserved in fluids. The result is that these collections consist of a wide range of differing materials which can make the long term care and conservation of such collections a considerable challenge. This workshop is designed for museum professionals with the aim of giving an introductory overview on museum conservation approaches towards the care of zoological collections. This will be achieved through identifying the key risks and looking at the application of both remedial and preventative conservation methodologies to their care. The format of the workshop will be lectures on specific topics with group discussions, along with (where feasible) activities in small groups and practical examinations of specimens. Topics covered will include: Introduction to the concepts of ‘museum conservation’ and its application within the Natural Sciences. The types of material found in zoological collections – an overview of the core collection types, the chemistry of preservation and the potential long term challenges these present. An overview of the key agents of deterioration. Environmental effects and how to recognise them. Awareness of hazardous materials and core H&S issues encountered with the care and handling of zoological collections. Assessing collections and deciding conservation priorities. Fur, feathers and bones - practical conservation approaches to cleaning, consolidation and repair. Fluid collections - practical conservation approaches to handling, identifying fluids and carrying out remedial activities. Other key collection areas – e.g. conservation of entomology and other dried invertebrate collections; microscope slide collections. Consideration of the care and conservation of specialist collections e.g. historic models such as Blaschka glass models. Discussion and feedback from attendees will be a core part of the day.

Abstract:

The results of the research on the history of formation and growth of Theodosius Dobrzhansky as a scientist in his first and most important Kyiv period are presented. This period lasted from 1909 to 1924 (15 years in total) and included studies at the First Kyiv Gymnasium (until 1917), 4 years of study at the University of St. Volodymyr (1917–1921) and work at the Department of Zoology of the Kyiv Polytechnical Institute (1920–1923) and the Zoological Museum of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences (1921–1922 [1923?]). The essay has been prepared considering numerous clarifications on misbeliefs accumulated in various sources, in particular on dates, places of residence and work, names of institutions, organisations, etc. Peculiarities of his work and activity in the Ukrainian Scientific Society, in the Department of Zoology of Kyiv Polytechnic, and in the Zoological Museum (Zoological Cabinet) of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences are analysed. Information on places of study and work, topics of scientific publications and reports, information on created collections and circles of communication is given. The motives for further change of place of work and departure of the scientist to St. Petersburg, where he spent the next 4 years, and to the United States are considered. The Kyiv period is considered being key for the formation of the scientist and his main scientific interests, as well as for the practice of communication with leading experts in their field and for the organisation of successful work despite social difficulties and upheaval.

Abstract:

This article examines the life and zoological research of Jesse Walter Fewkes of the United States, whose later career as a pioneer in cultural anthropology overshadowed his significant earlier contributions to zoology. The primary focus of his zoological work was on planktonic Cnidaria, especially the Siphonophora. He also carried out detailed investigations on larval development of echinoderms and worms. A bibliography of Fewkes's publications in natural history and a list of the nominal taxa he established reflect the scope of his contributions.

Full text

Abstract:

Joseph Banks possessed the greater part of the zoological specimens collected on James Cook's three voyages round the world (1768–1780). In early 1792, Banks divided his zoological collection between John Hunter and the British Museum. It is probable that those donations together comprised most of the zoological specimens then in the possession of Banks, including such bird specimens as remained of those that had been collected by himself and Daniel Solander on Cook's first voyage, and those that had been presented to him from Cook's second and third voyages. The bird specimens included in the Banks donations of 1792 became part of a series of transactions during the succeeding 53 years which involved the British Museum, the Royal College of Surgeons of England, and William Bullock. It is a great pity that, of the extensive collection of bird specimens from Cook's voyages once possessed by Banks, only two are known with any certainty to survive.

Abstract:

The work examines the circumstances of the transfer of the largest collection of butterflies, collected by Grand Duke Nikolai Romanov for 26 years, to the Zoological Museum of the Imperial Academy of Sciences in St. Petersburg in 1899–1900. The gift was made on the condition that the collection would retain the name of the donor; that, because of its considerable size, there will be a special custodian; that it would remain untouchable and without resupply, except for the species that may come from the Russian Empire; that it will be available for the work of scientists and professionals interested in the field. Two requirements were added a little bit later. The collection should have been kept in the same cabinets as it was at the Grand Duke’s palace. Otto Hertz was to be left the custodian with the position of senior zoologist. The main sources of the article are the minutes of the meetings of the Physics and Mathematics Department of the Imperial Academy of Sciences, museum reports, books of receipts from the Scientific Archives of the Zoological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, materials of the St. Petersburg branch of the Archive of RAS and the Russian State Historical Archives.

Abstract:

During the early 1870s a young zoologist who worked as a Privatdozent delivering lectures at different Prussian universities invested much of his family wealth and solicited his fellows' contributions to establish a research facility by the sea. The young zoologist happened to be called Anton Dohrn. From the time it opened its doors, the Anton Dohrn Zoological Station – or Naples Zoological Station, as it was originally called – played a crucial role in shaping life sciences as it facilitated research aimed at explaining the mechanics of inheritance. During the last quarter of the nineteenth century and the first decades of the twentieth, zoologists attempted to explain how evolutionary changes occur within a population and become stabilized. In so doing, they looked at developmental processes as well as environmental pressure, coming up with different hypotheses to explain inheritance. In some cases, their research was highly speculative, whereas in other cases they conducted cytological observations to identify the material basis of heredity. Research on evolution and development has been carried out in different places, and zoological stations like the one in Naples have played a major role in this story. However, numerous biological institutions active at the turn of the twentieth century have not received much attention from historians.

Abstract:

Millions of hand-coloured illustrations were incorporated in zoological books and journals between about 1710 and 1925. All the combined skills of the artists, etchers, engravers and lithographers, to produce good and accurate figures for these illustrations could be ruined by bad colouring. Yet we know the names of very few colourists who undertook this vital part of the publishing process. The identity of some of the British colourists, their working conditions and wages, and their method of working have been established from many scattered sources.

Abstract:

We present a new use for a poorly preserved turtle specimen that teachers can easily use in demonstrating vertebrate anatomy or adaptive herpetology at the high school or college level. We give special attention to illustrating the sigmoid flexure of the neck as certain turtles withdraw their heads. This ability is anatomically and biologically important in that it protects the turtle from predators and is one of the major anatomical radiations that occurred in turtle evolution. The lesson also demonstrates how turtles, whose anatomy is confined within a rigid compartment, have their organs arranged and how adaptive strategies overcome this spatial constraint.
