  • On the Crabs of the Family Ocypodidae in the Collection of the Raffles Museum M. W. F. TWEEDIE
    Reprint from Bulletin of the Raffles Museum, Singapore, Straits Settlements, No. IS, August 1937 On the Crabs of the family Ocypodidae in the collection of the Raffles Museum hy M. W. F. TWEEDIE M. W. F. TWEEDIE On the Crabs of the Family Ocypodidae in the Collection of the Raffles Museum By M. W. F. TwEEDiE, M.A. The material described in this paper has been collected for the most part during the last four years, mainly in mangrove swamps around Singapore Island and at a few localities on the east and west coasts of the Malay Peninsula. The greater part of the paper and most of the figures were prepared at the British Museum (Natural History) during August and September, 1936, and my grateful acknowledgments are due to the Director for permission to work there and for facilities provided, and particularly to Dr. Isabella Gordon for her unfailing help and encouragement. I wish also to express my thanks to the Directorates of the Zoological Museums at Leiden and Amsterdam for permission to examine types, and for the helpfulness and courtesy with which I was received by the members of the staffs of these museums. Finally acknowledgments are due to Prof. Dr. H. Balss, Dr. B. N. Chopra and Dr. C. J. Shen for their kindness in comparing specimens with types and authentic specimens in their respective institutions. The mode adopted for collecting the material may be of interest to collectors of Crustacea, and possibly other invertebrate groups, in the tropics. It was found that if crabs, especially Grapsidse and Ocypodidse, are put straight into alcohol, they tend to die slowly and in their struggles to shed their limbs and damage each other, so that often less than 10% of the collection survive as perfect specimens.

  • Early Scouting in New South Wales
    Early Scouting in New South Wales J.X. Coutts file notes. Transcriptions (where provided) from the original (all errors intact) are included for searchability. THE GAME OF SCOUTING It was in 1907 that Baden-Powell held an experimental camp on Brownsea to test his ideas which he incorporated in his book “Scouting for Boys”, and it was in 1908 that the book first appeared to fire the imagination of boys and unintentionally start a movement which spread in a few years to all corners of the earth. Today there are eight million Scouts in over one hundred countries of the world, and the number continues to grow. Scouting grew spontaneously. B.-P. intended “Scouting for Boys” to provide programme suggestions and material for existing boys’ organisations. But as a result of the book, boys all over the country formed themselves into Scout Patrols and chose Scoutmasters from adults of their acquaintance. In that way the Scout Movement came into being and Baden-Powell became its Chief Scout. How can we account for this phenomenal spread of the game of Scouting? What is there about it that attracts like a magnet, boys of all classes, colours, languages and religions? It is because the whole scheme of Scouting is based on the normal desires of the boy. It provides a natural outlet for his bubbling energy, which is harnessed to good purpose. To the boy, Scouting is fun; it is a great game played with his comrades, as campers, pioneers and frontiermen. The aim of Scouting is to produce better citizens. It provides opportunities for developing those qualities of character which make the good citizen – honour, self-discipline and self-reliance, sense of duty and of respect for others.

    RAYMOND B. MANNING A Review of the Genus Harpiosquilla r (Crustacea, Stomatopoda), r with Descriptions of Three Mew Species SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • 1969 NUMBER 36 SERIAL PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION The emphasis upon publications as a means of diffusing knowledge was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution. In his formal plan for the Insti- tution, Joseph Henry articulated a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This keynote of basic research has been adhered to over the years in the issuance of thousands of titles in serial publications under the Smithsonian imprint, com- mencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Annals of Flight Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes original articles and monographs dealing with the research and collections of its several museums and offices and of professional colleagues at other institutions of learning. These papers report newly acquired facts, synoptic interpretations of data, or original theory in specialized fields. These pub- lications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, laboratories, and other interested institutions and specialists throughout the world. Individual copies may be obtained from the Smithsonian Institution Press as long as stocks are available.

  • Malaysia Singapore & Brunei
    © Lonely Planet 338 Sabah Malaysia’s state of Sabah proves that there is a god, and we’re pretty sure that he’s some sort of mad scientist. Sabah was his giant test tube – the product of a harebrained hypothesis. You see, on the seventh day, god wasn’t taking his infamous rest, he was pondering the following: ‘what would happen if I took an island, covered it with impenetrable jungle, tossed in an ark’s worth of animals, and turned up the temperature to a sweltering 40°C?’ The result? A tropical Eden with prancing mega-fauna and plenty of fruit-bearing trees. SABAH SABAH This ‘land below the wind’, as it’s known, is home to great ginger apes that swing from vine-draped trees, blue-hued elephants that stamp along marshy river deltas and sun-kissed wanderers who slide along the silver sea in bamboo boats. Oh but there’s more: mighty Mt Kinabalu rises to the heavens, governing the steamy wonderland below with its impos- ing stone turrets. The muddy Sungai Kinabatangan roars through the jungle – a haven for fluorescent birds and cheeky macaques. And finally there’s Sipadan’s seductive coral reef, luring large pelagics with a languid, come-hither wave. In order to make the most of your days of rest, we strongly encourage you to plan ahead. Sabah’s jungles may be wild and untamed, but they’re covered in streamers of red tape. With a bit of patience and a lot of preplanning, you’ll breeze by the permit restrictions and booked beds.
