Benjamin Waterhouse Hawkins (1807–1894), celebrated in Britain and the United States for his models and illustrations of extinct animals, also had an extensive lecturing career. This paper discusses the reports of Hawkins’s lectures in Britain, delivered between the 1850s and the early 1880s. Unabbreviated transcriptions of his lectures are rare, but newspaper reports are numerous. Hawkins spoke on comparative anatomy, geology, palaeontology and art, his most prominent themes being the origin of dragon myths and the impossibility of human evolution. Above all, he was known for his ability to sketch natural forms rapidly and accurately as he spoke. Hawkins saw significant success in metropolitan centres, but he also built rewarding relationships with provincial towns. This allowed for substantial engagement with civic scientific communities, whose fossil specimens were used by Hawkins and whose local science initiatives were promoted in press accounts of his lectures. Hawkins’s fervent anti-evolutionism aroused attention, although his alternative explanation of life’s development, “the unity of plan”, led to some confusion, and he became embittered by the spread of evolutionary naturalism. Hawkins’s career faded in the 1880s, but memories of his lecturing style lingered with audiences at the century’s close.
本杰明-沃特豪斯-霍金斯(1807-1894 年)因其制作的灭绝动物模型和插图在英国和美国享有盛誉,同时他还拥有广泛的演讲生涯。本文讨论的是霍金斯于 19 世纪 50 年代至 19 世纪 80 年代早期在英国发表的演讲报告。霍金斯演讲的简短记录非常罕见,但报纸报道却很多。霍金斯的演讲涉及比较解剖学、地质学、古生物学和艺术,他最突出的主题是龙神话的起源和人类进化的不可能性。最重要的是,他以能够边讲边快速准确地勾勒自然形态而闻名。霍金斯在大都市中心取得了巨大成功,但他也与外省城镇建立了有益的关系。霍金斯使用了这些城镇的化石标本,当地的科学活动也在霍金斯讲座的新闻报道中得到了推广。霍金斯狂热的反进化论引起了人们的关注,尽管他对生命发展的另一种解释--"计划的统一性"--导致了一些混乱,而且他对自然进化论的传播感到愤慨。19 世纪 80 年代,霍金斯的事业逐渐衰落,但他的演讲风格在世纪末仍让听众记忆犹新。

Benedykt Tadeusz Dybowski (1833–1930) was a Polish naturalist who, in 1864, was sent into exile in Siberia after the Polish uprising of 1863–1864. In 1865, he began his environmental research near Chita and then in Darasun. In 1868–1872, with his exiled associate Wiktor Ignacy Godlewski (1831–1900) , he conducted the first limnological studies of Lake Baikal. In their work, they used an instruments, tools and traps constructed by themselves. They described the lake’s properties and many of the endemic species like amphipods that lived in the lake. They also discovered many species of molluscs and fishes new to science. Dybowski also studied the differences in the malacofauna of the Caspian Sea and Lake Baikal, the ichthyofauna of the River Amur, the Ussuri and Lake Baikal, and the origin of individual species. The research in Siberia also included birds, that were collected in an innovative way. It was characteristic of Dybowski to create a series of individuals from a particular species. Based on the collected materials, he pointed out the differences or similarities in populations of species from geographically distant regions. The bird specimens thus contributed not only to knowledge of the fauna of Siberia but also to ecological and zoogeographical studies. The wide range of research and scientific discoveries of Dybowski and Godlewski became the basis for shortening their prison sentences and made it possible to return to their homeland. The collections of these naturalists – comprising thousands of specimens of sponges, crustaceans, spiders, molluscs, fishes, reptiles, birds and mammals – are still used today. The purpose of the paper is to disseminate knowledge about these naturalists, who remain well known in Poland, Russia, Ukraine and Germany, and their scientific legacy.
本尼迪克特-塔德乌什-迪博夫斯基(1833-1930 年)是波兰博物学家,1863-1864 年波兰起义后,他于 1864 年被流放到西伯利亚。1865 年,他开始在赤塔附近和达拉森进行环境研究。1868-1872 年,他与流亡同事维克多-伊格纳西-戈德列夫斯基(1831-1900 年)一起,对贝加尔湖进行了首次湖泊学研究。在工作中,他们使用了自己制造的仪器、工具和陷阱。他们描述了湖泊的特性和许多特有物种,如生活在湖中的片脚类动物。他们还发现了许多新的软体动物和鱼类物种。戴博斯基还研究了里海和贝加尔湖的鱼类区系的差异,阿穆尔河、乌苏里江和贝加尔湖的鱼类区系,以及个别物种的起源。在西伯利亚的研究还包括以创新方式收集的鸟类。戴博斯基的特点是将某一物种的个体制作成系列。根据收集到的材料,他指出了地理上遥远地区物种种群的异同。因此,鸟类标本不仅有助于了解西伯利亚的动物群落,还有助于生态学和动物地理学研究。Dybowski 和 Godlewski 的广泛研究和科学发现为他们缩短刑期提供了依据,并使他们有可能返回故乡。这些博物学家收藏的数千件海绵、甲壳类、蜘蛛、软体动物、鱼类、爬行动物、鸟类和哺乳动物标本至今仍在使用。本文旨在传播有关这些在波兰、俄罗斯、乌克兰和德国仍然广为人知的博物学家的知识及其科学遗产。

The ornithology of Agnes Block (1629–1704): Dutch naturalist, artist, collector and patron 艾格尼丝-布洛克(1629-1704 年)的鸟类学:荷兰博物学家、艺术家、收藏家和赞助人

Agnes Block (1629–1704) was a Dutch Mennonite naturalist, collector and patron, as well as an artist herself. In a family portrait by Jan Weenix (1642–1719) depicting Block at her renowned garden estate De Vijverhof near Wageningen, it is the fruiting pineapple, Ananas comosus, believed to be the first to be successfully cultivated in the Dutch Republic, which usually receives the most attention. However, while best known for such horticultural achievements and botanical interests, little attention has been paid to her ornithological endeavours. Block is known to have kept an aviary as well as a natural history cabinet which probably included specimens of birds. She also commissioned at least 18 artists to work for her, and had her exotic birds documented on paper just as she did her plants. In Weenix's painting, it is a drawing of a bird she proudly displays. What bird is it, and why does it matter? This paper offers an identification of the bird depicted –  Cyanerpes cyaneus (red-legged honeycreeper) found only in Neotropical America – and considers what it can tell us about Block's unrecognized place in early modern European ornithology.
阿格尼丝-布洛克(1629-1704 年)是荷兰门诺派博物学家、收藏家和赞助人,她本人也是一位艺术家。在扬-韦尼克斯(Jan Weenix,1642-1719 年)创作的一幅家庭肖像画中,布洛克在她位于瓦赫宁根附近的著名花园庄园 De Vijverhof 中的果实菠萝 Ananas comosus(据信是荷兰共和国第一个成功栽培的植物)通常最受关注。不过,虽然布洛克的园艺成就和植物学兴趣最为人熟知,但她在鸟类学方面的努力却鲜有人关注。众所周知,布洛克有一个鸟舍和一个自然历史橱柜,其中可能包括鸟类标本。她还委托至少 18 位艺术家为她工作,并将她的珍奇鸟类记录在纸上,就像记录她的植物一样。在韦尼克斯的画中,画的是她引以为豪的一种鸟。这是什么鸟?本文对所描绘的鸟进行了鉴定--红腿食蜜鸟(Cyanerpes cyaneus),这种鸟仅见于美洲新热带地区--并探讨了布洛克在早期现代欧洲鸟类学中未被认可的地位。

History of the crested turkey, a rare variant of the domesticated turkey (Meleagris gallopavo gallopavo) 凤头火鸡的历史--驯化火鸡(Meleagris gallopavo gallopavo)的一种罕见变种

In 1919, the famous Dutch poultry judge Cornelis van Gink (1890–1968) was aware of the existence of crested turkeys. Was this bird a natural rarity, variation or mutation? A search through historical records and published works yielded very few references to crested turkeys. From the financial accounts of the Great Condé in 1679 to pictures in books and journals of the eighteenth and nineteenth century in England and America, from a mounted specimen in Parma to a first photograph in 1938 in Newsweek, the beauty and rareness of this bird is evident. Attempts to breed crested turkeys were unsuccessful. In the nineteenth century William Bernhardt Tegetmeier (1816–1912), editor of The Field, had a major interest in these turkeys and together with Charles Darwin (1809–1882) studied and described skull deformations associated with well-known and common crested breeds of chickens. Deformation of the skull was also observed in the mounted specimen of the crested turkey preserved in Parma, Italy. Genetic analyses of crested poultry indicate that a mutation (autosomal incompletely dominant) in the crest gene is responsible for this phenotype. The mutation for crest formation with additional skull deformation might be responsible for some in ovo lethality or poor hatching which could explain the failure or difficulty in breeding this phenotype. In conclusion, all data indicate that the crested turkey is a mutation of the domestic turkey Meleagris gallopavo gallopavo and does not justify a new species or subspecies name.
1919 年,荷兰著名的家禽法官 Cornelis van Gink(1890-1968 年)意识到了凤头火鸡的存在。这种鸟是自然界的稀有品种、变异品种还是突变品种?通过对历史记录和出版著作的搜索,很少有关于冠火鸡的记载。从 1679 年康德大帝的财务账目到十八和十九世纪英国和美国的书籍和期刊中的图片,从帕尔马的一个装裱标本到 1938 年《新闻周刊》上的第一张照片,这种鸟的美丽和稀有显而易见。饲养凤头火鸡的尝试并不成功。十九世纪,《田野》编辑威廉-伯恩哈特-泰格迈尔(William Bernhardt Tegetmeier,1816-1912 年)对这种火鸡产生了浓厚的兴趣,他与查尔斯-达尔文(Charles Darwin,1809-1882 年)一起研究并描述了与著名的普通冠鸡品种相关的头骨畸形。在保存于意大利帕尔马的冠火鸡标本中也观察到了头骨变形。对鸡冠家禽的遗传分析表明,鸡冠基因突变(常染色体不完全显性遗传)是造成这种表型的原因。嵴基因突变会导致嵴形成和额外的头骨畸形,这可能是造成卵中致死率或孵化率低的原因,也可能是导致这种表型育种失败或困难的原因。总之,所有数据都表明,嵴火鸡是家养火鸡 Meleagris gallopavo gallopavo 的一种变异,没有理由命名为一个新种或亚种。

An autograph manuscript written after late October 1747 by Mark Catesby, now in the collections of the University of Virginia, Charlottesville, USA, reveals that he was the author of a summary of the final (eleventh) part of his own book, The natural history of Carolina, Florida and the Bahama islands (1729–1747). The summary was read to the Royal Society by Cromwell Mortimer in February 1748 and was then published under Mortimer's name in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society. Mortimer only lightly edited Catesby's manuscript and added an encomium. In his summary, Catesby took the opportunity, several months after the publication of the final part (“Appendix”) of his two-volume book, to enlarge on a few details.

The forgotten history of Oreortyx pictus (mountain quail), discovered by the Lewis and Clark expedition, 1806 路易斯和克拉克探险队发现的山鹑(Oreortyx pictus)被遗忘的历史,1806 年

Many authors have written about the new bird species discovered by members of the Lewis and Clark expedition (1804–1806), but the history of one species in particular –  Oreortyx pictus (mountain quail) – has remained elusive. Primary sources confirm that Lewis returned from the expedition with a specimen (now missing), which he deposited in the Philadelphia Museum.

许多作者都写过关于刘易斯和克拉克探险队(1804-1806 年)成员发现的新鸟类物种的文章,但其中一个物种--Oreortyx pictus(山鹑)--的历史却一直难以捉摸。原始资料证实,刘易斯探险归来时带回了一个标本(现已失踪),并将其存放在费城博物馆。然而,由于无法解释的原因,亚历山大-威尔逊和其他鸟类学家忽略了这一标本。在此,我回顾了探险及其后的原始资料,包括解决这一长期谜题的新资料。

“Der fluglose Alk”: Johann Friedrich Naumann’s 1844 account of Pinguinus impennis (great auk) "Der fluglose Alk":约翰-弗里德里希-瑙曼(Johann Friedrich Naumann)1844 年对大海鸥(Pinguinus impennis)的描述

This study examines the contribution of Johann Friedrich Naumann (1780–1857) to knowledge of the biology of Pinguinus impennis (great auk; “der fluglose Alk/ the flightless auk”), written for his natural history of German birds, Naturgeschichte der Vögel Deutschlands (1820–1844) and published in the twelfth and final volume in 1844, the year in which the great auk is generally accepted to have become extinct. Naumann, a farmer in a rural area of central Germany, never saw a live great auk, yet by careful examination of the literature, correspondence and conversations with other ornithologists, together with the examination of at least nine skins and three eggs, he produced an extraordinarily accurate and perceptive account of the bird. In the winter of 1830–1831, Naumann obtained his own great auk specimen – a bird in summer plumage – through Johann Heinrich Frank, one of several natural history dealers responsible for importing great auk specimens from Iceland to Denmark and Germany in the 1830s. Naumann noted several differences between the great auk and the smaller but morphologically similar Alca torda (razorbill), and suggested that the two species represented separate genera. Despite the plethora of publications relating to the great auk following its extinction, it is remarkable that Naumann’s exceptional account should have been almost entirely overlooked.
本研究探讨了约翰-弗里德里希-瑙曼(Johann Friedrich Naumann,1780-1857 年)对 Pinguinus impennis(大杓鹬;"der fluglose Alk/ the flightless auk")生物学知识的贡献,这些贡献写入了他的德国鸟类自然史《德国鸟类自然史》(Naturgeschichte der Vögel Deutschlands,1820-1844 年),并于 1844 年出版了第十二卷,也是最后一卷,人们普遍认为大杓鹬正是在这一年灭绝的。瑙曼是德国中部农村地区的一位农民,从未见过活的大杓鹬,但他通过仔细查阅文献、与其他鸟类学家通信和交谈,并检查了至少九张鸟皮和三枚鸟蛋,对这种鸟进行了极为准确和敏锐的描述。1830-1831 年冬,瑙曼通过约翰-海因里希-弗兰克(Johann Heinrich Frank)获得了自己的大鸥标本--一只夏季羽色的鸟,弗兰克是 19 世纪 30 年代负责从冰岛向丹麦和德国进口大鸥标本的几位自然历史学家之一。瑙曼注意到大嘴鸥与体型较小但形态相似的蛏子(Alca torda)之间的一些差异,并认为这两个物种代表不同的属。尽管在大嘴鸟灭绝后,有关大嘴鸟的出版物层出不穷,但令人惊讶的是,瑙曼的特殊描述几乎完全被忽视了。
