    Description: Woutera Sophie Suzanna van Benthem Jutting was born 6th February 1899 in Batavia, Island of Java, Netherlands Indies (now Djakarta, Djawa, Indonesia) from Dutch parents. Her father, Wouter Christiaan LL.D. (Leiden), then a member of the High Court of Justice in Batavia, had served his entire career in the Netherlands Indies. Her mother, Sophie Henriëtte Aegidia Bosch, was the daughter of a high-ranking civil officer in the Dutch colonial government. Tera’s father retired in 1900 and returned with his family to the Netherlands, settling first at Nijmegen and later at Heemstede near Haarlem. There, in 1915, Tera’s mother died from tropical spruw, then nearly always fatal. Her father died at Haarlem in 1933. From 1911 until 1916 Tera attended the secondary school for girls in Haarlem. Here she learnt very well modern languages and literature (Dutch, French, English, and German), political history and the history of art. The natural history lessons had her lively interest, and, having finished school, she wished to study biology at University level. Her father, however, did not consider that this could help a woman to gain financial independence and advised her to take up teaching. Tera followed her father’s advice and after nearly two years study she passed the required examinations, qualifying 30th April 1918 as a primary school teacher. She then decided to follow her preference for biology.

    Description: INTRODUCTION\n\nThe members of the Ivory Shell genus Babylonia Schl\xc3\xbcter, 1838, belonging to the Buccinidae, are characterized by more or less slender buccinoid shells, mostly ornamented with a beautiful colour-pattern. Some species, e.g. the type species B. spirata, have a conspicuous sutural canal (see pl. 8 figs. 1-3), resembling the spirally arranged staircase of the Babylonian Tower in certain old pictures (pl. 6 fig. 1). Some of the species are found in many collections, others are rarely seen. A l l Recent members of the genus are restricted to the Indo-Pacific region. The fossil Babylonia species are found in a more extensive area, including southern and central Europe.\nThe Recent species have been treated in the well known iconographies of the nineteenth century. Much later a short revision was given by Habe (1965), followed by comments on some species by Altena (1968). It should be emphasized that we have concentrated on the Recent species in this monograph. Far less original research has been done on fossil taxa; many data have simply been taken from the literature here.

    Description: 9. DESCRIPTION D\'UNE NOUVELLE ESP\xc3\x88\nCE DE DEROCERAS DES ENVIRONS DE\nGRENADE 1) M\xc3\xaame pour celui qui ne dispose pas d\'une voiture, la ville de Grenade est un magnifique centre d\'excursions. Les trams et autobus permettent au naturaliste de sortir de la ville en toutes directions et de commencer ses promenades en pleine campagne. Pendant un s\xc3\xa9jour \xc3\xa0 Grenade en avril 1960 je me suis servi quelques fois du tram \xc3\xa9lectrique qui monte la Sierra Nevada vers le sudest et dont le terminus, La Maitena, est un hameau situ\xc3\xa9 \xc3\xa0 une hauteur de 1100 m au dessus de la mer. Le 10 avril en partant de La Maitena nous avons, ma fille et moi, escalad\xc3\xa9 la montagne vers le sud et apr\xc3\xa8s avoir mont\xc3\xa9 plusieurs centaines de m\xc3\xa8tres, j\'ai consacr\xc3\xa9 une demie heure \xc3\xa0 la recherche de mollusques. Ici, \xc3\xa0 une hauteur que j\'estime \xc3\xa0 environ 1500 m, la v\xc3\xa9g\xc3\xa9tation n\'\xc3\xa9tait pas tr\xc3\xa8s abondante: \xc3\xa7\xc3\xa0 et l\xc3\xa0 un arbre ou un arbuste et puis des herbes qui ne couvraient le sol qu\'en partie (pl. VIII). Le long du lit dess\xc3\xa9ch\xc3\xa9 d\'un ruisseau la v\xc3\xa9g\xc3\xa9tation \xc3\xa9tait plus dense et c\'est l\xc3\xa0 que sous une pierre je trouvai deux limaces, le seul butin de ma chasse.\nL\'\xc3\xa9tude de ces animaux m\'a convaincu qu\'il s\'agit d\'une esp\xc3\xa8ce nouvelle.\nJe me ferai un plaisir de la d\xc3\xa9dier au professeur Hilbrand Boschma \xc3\xa0 l\'occasion de son 7oe anniversaire. Qu\'il veuille consid\xc3\xa9rer cette d\xc3\xa9dicace comme un t\xc3\xa9moignage de ma reconnaissance de l\'appui qu\'il m\'a apport\xc3\xa9 tant de fois et dans des circonstances si diverses.\nLes deux animaux furent conserv\xc3\xa9s en alcool de 70 degr\xc3\xa9s apr\xc3\xa8s avoir \xc3\xa9t\xc3\xa9 \xc3\xa9tendus par immersion dans l\'eau pendant une nuit. La description se rapporte aux sp\xc3\xa9cimens ainsi conserv\xc3\xa9s.

    Description: During my stay in Surinam (Dutch Guiana) in the first three months of 1963 most of my time was devoted to the study of the marine Mollusca, on which I shall report later. Now and then, however, I had an opportunity of collecting non marines. The following notes are the result of the study of some of the land snails in the material I collected.\n\nSUBULINIDAE\nLeptinaria (Luntia) insignis (E. A. Smith) Luntia insignis Smith, 1898, Journ. Conchol. 9: 28, fig. 8 (Trinidad); Pilsbry, 1906, Man. Conch. (2) 18: 218, pl. 40 fig. 7; Hummelinck, 1940, Studies Fauna Cura\xc3\xa7ao &c. 2: 98 (Aruba); 3: 115, 116 (Aruba); Morrison, 1943, Nautilus 57: 48 (British Guiana).\nVaricella clappi [non Pilsbry], Meeuse & Hubert, 1949, Basteria, 13: 18, pl. 3 fig. 15 (greenhouse in Botanical Gardens, Utrecht, Netherlands).\nVaricella cf. clappi, v. R. Altena, 1960, Basteria 24: 50 (Tambaredjo, Surinam).\nLeptinaria (Luntia) insignis, Thiele, 1931, Handb. syst. Weichtierk. 1 (2): 552; Haas, 1962, Studies Fauna Cura\xc3\xa7ao &c. 13: 53, pl. 11 fig. I, J (Saba).\nThe figure published by Haas enabled me to identify this species which Hubert & Meeuse thought to be Varicella clappi Pilsbry, and which I recorded from Surinam in 1960. Recently I had an opportunity of confirming this revised identification by comparison of Surinam specimens with the holotype of the species in the British Museum (Natural History).\nI found Leptinaria insignis in two more localities in Surinam, viz., in the Botanical Gardens of Paramaribo, and at the base of the ruins of the synagogue at Jodensavanne, on the Surinam River, some 50 km south of Paramaribo. Morrison (1943) states that in British Guiana the species belongs to \'the smaller species of land mollusks that were found mostly on Kyk-over-

    Description: INTRODUCTION\nThe palaeolithic deposits of the rock shelter of Ks\xc3\xa2r\'Akil in the Antelias valley have been excavated by a group of American Jesuits in the years 1937-1938 and 1947-1948. Recently the fossil bones from these deposits were reported upon by my colleague Hooijer (1961). When he received the material for description it appeared that his samples contained a large collection of molluscan shells and a few spines of echinoderms as well. These are dealt with in the present paper. To the best of my knowledge they are all the remains of molluscs and echinoderms found during the excavation. For further details on the collection and the site I refer to Hooijer\'s paper, which also contains references to the literature on Ks\xc3\xa2r\'Akil.\nA few shells from the neighbouring site Abri Bergy (cf. Hooijer, 1961, p. 56) are mentioned in my list of Mollusca under nos. 6 and 26.\n\nMOLLUSCA\nShells of 45 species of Mollusca have been collected in the rock shelter of Ks\xc3\xa2r\'Akil. They belong to marine, freshwater, and terrestrial molluscs.\nAll the species recorded are still living in the neighbourhood of the locality.\nThe following is an annotated list of these Mollusca. Unless otherwise stated the data on the bathymetrical distribution of marine species have been borrowed from the list on page 808 seq. of volume 2 of the book by Bucquoy, Dautzenberg, and Dollfus. Information on the distribution of non-marine species was found in Germain\'s publication of 1921/1922, and in the literature cited in that paper. Fragments, which are relatively scarce in the material, have been counted for so many specimens as they must at least represent.\nCLASS GASTROPODA
