728 Zoology. 



Godman (Frederick du Cane). [1834- 



See Martens. 

 Goodwin-Austen (Henry Haversham). [1834- 



The collection of shells from Socotra, described by Col. Godwin- 

 Austin in 1881 and 1883, containing numerous types, was presented to 

 the trustees in 1881 by the British Association. His private collection 

 of Indian Mollusca has been presented by him and is now in course of 

 registration. It contains the types of all the species described by him in 

 his " Land and Freshwater Mollusca of India " and in other publications. 



Gray (John Edward). [1800-1875] 



The private collection of Dr. Gray was presented by him to the Museum 

 in 1874. It contained a number of types of species described by himself, 

 W. Wood, Lovell Reeve, and other writers. Most of the specimens were 

 but poor representatives of the various species, and evidently had been 

 collected for study purposes rather than as cabinet specimens. 



Other types by Gray were received in 1842 and 1844, and were 

 described in Yate's " Account of New Zealand," in Dieffenbach's " Travels 

 in New Zealand," and in Jukes's narrative of the voyage of the Fly. 



Guilding (Lansdown). [1797 ?-1831] 



About the years 1838-1840, the large collections made by 

 Mr. Guilding in St. Vincent's and other West Indian Islands, were sold 

 by auction by Messrs. Stevens, and the Museum acquired a considerable 

 number of the specimens. Some of these are valuable as being co-types 

 of certain species described by Mr. Guilding. 



Hanley (Sylvanus Charles Thorp). [1819-1899] 



The valuable collection of shells got together by Mr. Hanley, at his 

 death, became the property of his nephew, Mr. Crew Hanley. From this 

 gentleman the Museum acquired by purchase the types of 104 species of 

 marine shells. The collection contained numerous other types which the 

 Museum unfortunately was unable to obtain, the collection having been 

 sold to a dealer in Houndsditch, who did not wish to part with any 

 further portions of it. 



H.M.S. "Herald" and "Pandora." 



See Forbes. 

 Hinds (Richard Brinsley). 



Very large collections of shells were made during the voyage of 

 H.M.S. Sulphur in 1836-1842, and an extensive series of the specimens 

 was presented by Mr. Hinds to the Museum in 1842. Two years later, 

 Sir E. Belcher presented 79 co-types of new species described by Hinds 

 in the Zoology of the Voyage, and in 1879 the Museum acquired about 

 80 of his actual types which had passed into the collection of the Eev. 

 T. Lombe-Taylor. When this magnificent collection was sold the 

 Museum obtained these types from Mr. G. B. Sowerby, into whose hands 

 it was placed for disposal. 



Jeffreys (John Gwyn). [1809-1885] 



The large collections of Mollusca made by H.M.S. Lightning, 

 Porcupine, Knight-Errant, and Shearwater w T ere only partly worked out 

 by Dr. J. G. Jeffreys. The specimens described and figured were trans- 

 ferred by his executors to the Museum in 1885, and a complete set of all
