1900. 
L. JÄGERSKIÖLD, Ph. D. (Zoologist, Helminthologist), made a journey to Fin- 
marken (Sörvaer, Söroen, Alten Fjord, Öx Fjord, etc.), in order to study the marine 
fauna and the Helminths. From the 20th of May to the Ist of September. At his 
own expense, assisted by a donation from Professor G. RETZIUS. 
1902 & 1903. 
H. BRUNANDER, Phil. Cand. (Zoologist; Oligochaeta), undertook expeditions in 
the above years to Gotland, Luleå and Skåne, in order to collect and study especi- 
ally marine oligochaeta. Grants from the Royal Academy of Science, from the State 
Museum, and out of the funds of the BJURZON Trust. 
1902 & 1903. 
E. LÖNNBERG, Ph. D. etc., spent about six weeks during each of the above 
years in exploring marine fauna in "Skelderviken", "Torekov", and "Laholms-bugten"', 
in order to make collections of marine animals. The expeditions were made in his 
official capacity as Fishery Inspector. 
Besides the expeditions and voyages above enumerated, many others are to be 
noted. I am not now, myself, in a position to take up a more detailed inquiry into 
the matter in question. Even at this date, it is in many cases almost impossible to 
give an exact account of all the exploratory expeditions, which have started from 
our country for the purpose of investigating the northern and arctic regions. For 
reasons easily to be understood my report of these voyages cannot but be very dis- 
connected and incomplete. It seems to me, however, that at any future date it will 
prove hardly possible to give any review of these voyages and expeditions in a more 
thorough-going manner, many of them being totally forgotten. 
Collections of marine animals, preserved in the State Museum at Stockholm and 
in the Museum at Upsala etc. have been made by CARL AURIVILLIUS, Ph. D. (Zoo- 
logist — in a wide sense), from Hardanger Fjord in Norway; C. BovaALniuvs, Phil. 
Cand. (Zoologist, Carcinologist), from the West Coast of Norway; GADD and NYLANDER 
(Zoologists), from the Waranger Fjord: A. MALM (Zoologist and Super-intendent of 
the Zoological Museum in Gothenburg), from the West Coast of Sweden; W. LJUNGMAN, 
Ph. D. (Zoologist; Echinoderms), from the West Coast of Sweden, when on board a 
Swedish Gunboat(?); T. Fries, Ph. D. (Botanist), from Finmarken (1857 and 1864); 
Count T. THoTttT and G. KOLTHOFF (Ornithologists), from Iceland and the Faroe Is- 
lands (1872), G. KOLTHOFF and ÅA. R. BUNSOW (Zoologists and Ornithologists), from
