Carl Arend Friedrich Wiegmann, was born at Berlin on March 

 I St, 1836, and was son of the well-known Professor of Zoology, Dr. 

 A. F. Aug. Wiegmann. He prepared himself for the career of 

 apothecary, studied at the University of Berlin, and travelled 

 afterwards in different countries of Europe and in the United States of 

 America. In 1866 he bought a dispensary at Jiiterbog, near Berlin, 

 and settled in 1877 at Jena in order to devote his time exclusively to 

 zoological studies. 



Wiegmann was an ardent student of malacology, and all his 

 zootomical researches are distinguished by accuracy and thoroughness. 

 Besides numerous short articles in scientific periodicals, he published
