Catalogue Of The Marine Mollusks Of Japan With Descriptions Of New Species And Notes On Others Collected By Frederick Stearns PDF Download

Excerpt from Catalogue of the Marine Mollusks of Japan: With Descriptions of New Species and Notes on Others Stearns Collected by Frederick Stearns It may be noticed that some new specific names employed here in resemble the names of certain localities or islands of the Japanese Empire; but we must here explicitly declare that between such specific and geographic names no necessary connection exists; and the former, except where the contrary is stated, should be taken as mere arbitrary or meaningless words. They will, therefore, not be subject to change on account of modifications in the current mode of transliteration from Japanese to the Roman character, nor from other causes.
