 and measures required to insure the prosperity of oyster-culture.

 cultivation at the end of the first year of these investigations. <^Report

Translated by Herman Jacobson from Overzicht van don stand van het onderzoek de 

 oester en haar cultuur betrelfende aan het einde van het eerste onderzoekingsjaar. In 

 1880 the Netherlands Zoological Association devoted its attention to investigations respect- 

 ing the minute anatomy and the biology of the oyster, and an account of the general 

 outline and results of that work appears in this paper.

Translated by John A. Ryder from Recherches sur les organes g6uitaux des huitres, 

 par M. P. P. C. Hoek. Comptes rendus des s6ances de I'Acad^mie des Sciences, Paris, 

 Novembrc G, 1882. States tliat the generative org.ans (of the Ostrea edulis) do not consist 

 of localized glands, but extend over nearly the whole of the body mass. They are not 

 separated on either side of the body from the integument. It is the same cul-de-sac v.hich 

 produces at one time the spermatozoa and the ova. See 1890 a.
