described by him in his monographs, and in 1877 Mr. H. N. 

 Moseley presented his types of species of Bipalium. 



ENTOZOA. 



The basis of this collection was a series of specimens named 

 by Prof. Siebold, and it was made generally available by the 

 " Catalogue of . . . Entozoa," prepared by Dr. W. Baird in 1853. 



The collection was revised in 1881 and 1882 by Dr. L. Orley, 

 who made a report, which was published in vol. ix. (1882) of 

 the Annals and Magazine of Natural History. 



Since that date Dr. O. von Linstow has been so obliging as 

 to determine specimens sent him for examination. 



C. Chronological List of the Principal Accessions to 

 the Collection of Worms. 



No collection of Worms of any importance seems to have been 

 made before 



1851, 



when a collection of Entozoa, notable at the time, was purchased 

 from Prof. Siebold ; this was made generally known by the 

 catalogue prepared by Dr. Baird in 1853 (12mo, 132 pp., 2 pis.). 

 Col. Montagu was much interested in Worms, and the " Old 

 Collection" contained a number of his specimens and those 

 of Dr. Leach ; these were added to, chiefly by Dr. Johnston, 

 Mr. Robertson, and Mr. Laughrin, and in 



1865 



a catalogue of " British Non-parasitical Worms" was published. 

 30 specimens of Polych?eta, from off the Shetlands, were pre- 

 sented by Mr. Gwyn Jeffreys, and a few Entozoa from animals 

 in the Zoological Gardens were presented by Dr. Murie. 



1866 and 1867. 



About 80 Worms from Polperro were purchased from Mr. 

 Laughrin. 



1872. 



266 accessions, of which the most notable were the Scan- 

 dinavian Oligochsetes obtained from Dr. Eisen.
