Excerpt from Cephalopods of the Philippine Islands This report is based mostly on the extensive collections of cephalo pods made by the United States Fisheries steamer Albatross between December 1907 and September 1909 in the Philippine Islands and adjacent seas, and deposited in the United States National Museum. The Philippine cruise was under the direction of Dr. Hugh M. Smith, then Deputy Commissioner of Fisheries. The late Dr. Paul Bartsch, formerly Curator of Mollusks, us. National Museum, made many of the cephalopod collections and I am greatly indebted to him and his assistants for the accurate labeling of the collections and the numerous supplementary notes which have proved invaluable during this study. Collections of cephalopods taken at numerous trawling and dredging stations were extensively supplemented by shore collections made both by hand and by shore seines. In addition several valuable specimens were obtained from local fish markets. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
