Bull. Kilakyushu Mia. Nat. Hist., 20: 81-143, pis. 3-9. March 31, 2001 A list ofJapanese Insect Collection by P. F. von Siebold and H. Burger preserved in Nationaal Natuurhistorisch Museum, Leiden, the Netherlands Part 3. Other Orders by Kyoichiro Ueda1 and Yutaka Yoshiyasu2 'Kilakyushu Museum and Institute of Natural History, 3-6-1 Nishihonmachi, Yahatahigashi-ku, Kitakyushu 805-0061 Japan JLaboratory ofApplied Entomology, Faculty of Agriculture, Kyoto Prefectural University, Shimogamo, Kyoto 606-8522Japan (Received December 19, 2000) Von Siebold left Japan after the Siebold affair (1829) and his assistant H. Burger continued collecting. Burger sent four shipments of natural history material to Leiden (Yamaguchi, 1993: 79) and many insect collections were included in these (Holthuis & Sakai, 1970). As soon as our research began we found that the material collected by von Siebold and Burger had not always been kept separate, and that Burger's material often bore labels with "Japan" only. For example, de Haan (1842-1844) apparently dedicated the specific name of Decticvs biirgeri de Haan, 1843 (p. 214) to Burger, but the four "Cotypus" specimens of D. biirgeri only bear a small, square hand-written label "Japan" (PI. 5: Fig. B). De Haan indicated Burger's name as collector for Phasma (Acanthoderus) japonicum de Haan, 1842 (p. 135) too. With Blattella nipponica Asahina, 1963 we found a circular label with "Japan", the letter being underlined (Fig. 11). This characteristic style is fre quently found on labels among specimens of Orthoptera and related orders. Conocephalus crassiceps de Haan, 1843bears a circular label inscribed "BurgerJapan" (PI. 5: G), so we tentatively assign the specimens bearing those labels to either the Burger or Siebold collection. More detailed comments on particular specimens are given below. Identification of the specimens was mainly based on the identification labels already attached to them. When problems of identification were encoun tered, we asked the specialists on each family for identifications from the photo graphs we took. Naturally a more detailed examination will later be needed for some material. We hope that this list will encourage systematicwork on the species in question. 82 KyoichiroUkda and YutakaYoshiyasu Acknowledgements Prof. Takao Yamaguchi, Kumamoto University and Prof. L. B. Holthuis, Nationaal Natuurhistorisch Museum, Leiden encouraged and helped us in many ways. Prof. Holthuis read the earlier draft of this work through and gave us many useful comments. Dr. Gaden S. Robinson, The Natural History Museum, London also gave us the advice. We are grateful to many systematists, i. e., Dr. Syoiti Miyamoto (Fukuoka City), Profs. Hiroshi Shima and Kazuo Ogata, Drs. Takuji Tachi and Masahiro Sueyoshi (Kyushu University), Prof. Seiki Yamane (Kagoshima University 8c University of Tokyo), Dr. Akihiko Shinohara (National Science Museum, Tokyo), Dr. Kazuhiko Konishi (Hokkaido National Agricultural Experiment Station), Dr. Kaoru Maeto (Forestry and Forest Products Research Institute, Shikoku Research Center), Dr. Takeyuki Nakamura (Tochigi Prefectural Museum) and Mr. Yoshinobu Uemura (Toyosato Museum of Entomology) for gen erous help in giving us comments on the identifications of several specimens of which we sent them photographs. Mr. Akihiko Ichikawa (Osaka City) indicated us the species which were described or recorded from Japan on de Haan's work. Mr. Hisakatsu Minei and Prof. Takeshi Kawarabata, Kyushu University kindly arranged the photograph of the late Emeritus Prof. Teiso Esaki. Finally our list is dedicated to two distinguished entomologists, the late Emeritus Prof. Teiso Esaki, Kyushu University and the late Emeritus Prof. Masuzo Ueno, Kyoto University. They published many papers on von Siebold and his natural history works even in the hard times after the World War II. We could not have started this project with out their efforts in the field.
