Описание: Excerpt from Annual Report of the Keeper of the Museum of Comparative Zo logy at Harvard College, to the President and Fellows of Harvard College for 1903-1904 The various reports of the assistants in charge of the collections announce a gratifying list of accessions to the stores of the Mu seum. All departments of the Museum already feel the influence of the expedition by which, through the generosity of Mr. John E. Thayer, our collections are being enriched. The Significance of Mr. Thayer's expedition is of especial value. A student of nature himself, he is the son of Nathaniel Thayer, who in 1865, in the early infancy of the Museum, supplied its distinguished founder with all the means for the famous expedition to Brazil, the fruits of which are the basis of the immense storage collee tions now at Cambridge. Among the larger accessions for the year is the extensive Flood collection, chiefly birds, received through Mr. J. E. Thayer (see Mr. Brewster's report), and the donation by Professor H. P. Johnson, who was formerly a student at the Museum, of his large and valuable collection of marine annelids, mostly from the Pacific Coast. Professor Johnson's gift is of especial value as it contains his many types and figured specimens. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
