Report on tSie Zoological Survey ofIndia for the years 1926-27,

1927-28 & 1928-29.

Introduction.

During the period under review in this triennial report the work ofthe Zoological Survey of India has been steadily progressing and extend¬ing. In my last report I pointed out that a " very important branchin which the Zoological Survey of India can be and, I hope and believe,is of very material assistance is that of friendly collaboration with otherzoological and scientific institutions, either research institutions orpurely educational bodies". During the past three years the extentof this collaboration has been steadily increasing and it is becomingmore and more widely recognized by other institutions and by Pro¬vincial Governments that the Zoological Survey of India can be ofmaterial use to them. In consequence of this increased recognition,the Zoological Survey of India has been approached on several occa¬sions and asked for assistance either in the investigation of certainproblems or for advice regarding proposals that have been put beforethe Local Governments in the several provinces. As regards the latter,this department has been asked for advice on the following questions :—

(i) Organization and improvement of the Fishery Department,by the Government of Madras.

(ii) The institution of a biological station and hatchery on theChilka Lake, by the Government of Bihar and Orissa, and

(Hi) The protection of lizards, by the Government of Bengal.In each case the Zoological Survey of India submitted advice and

recommendations, but at the present time no information has been re¬ceived as to how far the various provinces concerned acted upon theadvice. Investigations in the field were undertaken in 1926 at the re¬quest of the Pasteur Institute of Eangoon, the cost being met by aspecial grant from the Indian Research Fund Association to the Gov¬ernment of Burma, in order to discover whether it was possible thatthe disease Schistosomiasis could be imported into Burma from China.Several cases of this disease had occurred amongst the Chinese cooliesemployed at Namtu in the Upper Shan States and it was thoughtthat the disease might spread. As a result of our investigations wewere able to inform the Pasteur Institute and the Government ofBurma that we were unable to detect the presence of any likely molluschost and that it was, therefore, not necessary to take any special quar¬antine or preventive measures.


ii Report on the Zoological Survey of India

There has been, during the past three years a very close co-operationbetween the Zoological Survey of India and (a) the Harcourt ButlerInstitute of Public Health, Burma, and (b) the Calcutta School of Tro¬pical Medicine. The former Institute has on many occasions sent uscollections of animals for identification and these have always beenpromptly dealt with. In the case of the latter Institution, the Directorof the School of Tropical Medicine invariably sends an invitation to theDirector of the Zoological Survey of India to attend the monthly con¬ference of research workers engaged in the institution. So far as waspossible and whenever time and circumstances permitted I have at¬tended these meetings and on several occasions have been able to assistwith suggestions and advice. In 1927 at the meeting of the Par EasternAssociation of Tropical Medicine, the Director of the Zoological Surveyof India was appointed as a delegate to the Conference by the Govern¬ment of India and was also made a member of the Exhibition Com¬mittee. The Zoological Survey of India got together three Exhibitsfor the Congress, viz. :■—

(i) Snakes of India, poisonous and non-poisonous.(ii) The mollusc hosts of the Indian Pork-tailed Cercaria.

(in) Natural Enemies of mosquito larvae.I might here also draw the attention of the Government of India

to the very great amount of work which the officers of this departmenthave to do in connection with the identification and naming of thematerial of different classes of animals in various parts of India andoutside for different institutions and for private individuals. Withthe increasing number of research workers in India enquiries in con¬nection with the relevant literature pertaining to different subjectsand the lines of work to be taken up by different individuals are alsoincreasing.

Very close co-operation has grown up during the last few yearsbetween the Zoological Survey and the Archaeological Survey of India.The Archaeological Survey during their extensive excavations at Mohen-jo-daro in Sind, Harappa in the Punjab and Nal in Baluchistan, haveexcavated a number of human and other animal remains and at the

request of Sir John Marshall, the then Director-General of Archaeologyin India, the Zoological Survey of India undertook to investigate andreport on these finds. The report on the human remains excavatedat Nal, which I mentioned in my last report, is now in the press. Sincethen we have been asked to examine the human and animal remainsfrom the other two sites, and a full report on the animal remains ex¬cavated at Mohenjo-daro and a preliminary report on the human re¬mains from Mohenjo-daro have been compiled and submitted.

Similarly the officers of the Zoological Survey of India work in veryclose co-operation with those of the Geological Survey of India. Inthis connection particular mention may be made of the work of Dr.Baini Prashad, who has had to study the fossil forms equally with therecent ones in connection with his revisions of the various families of


for the years 1926-29. iii

aquatic Gastropods and Lamellibranchs. He lias written several paperson the fossil fresh water molluscs which he has worked out within recent

years.

In 1920 I was asked by the Department of Education, Health andLands to submit a scheme for the expansion and improvement of theZoological Survey of India; the complete programme to cover a periodof 5 years. In this programme I included a scheme for the provisionof (a) a fire-proof building to house the collections, library and labora¬tories of the Zoological Survey of India and (6) a marine biological sta¬tion at Karachi. In addition I asked for an increase in both the gazet¬ted and non-gazetted staff, the former being for the appointment of anAnthropologist, as well as for the provision of funds for the remodel¬ling and renovation of the Public Galleries. Owing to force of circum¬stances, consideration and sanction of this programme by the Govern¬ment of India had to be postponed, and the Government has, therefore,been approached and requested to consider and sanction certain indi¬vidual items that had been included in it. The post of Anthropolo¬gist to the Zoological Survey of India was sanctioned in 1927 and Dr.B. S. Guha was appointed.

The chief problem with which the Zoological Survey of India hasbeen faced during the past triennial period is the necessity for increasedspace in which to accommodate our collections and library, as well asthe provision of laboratory space for the increasing number of researchworkers who now come to the Indian Museum for the purpose of con¬sulting our library and reference collections. During the past threeyears a number of collections that had previously been sent out to ex¬

perts in other parts of the world have been returned to us identifiedand named. Among the collections I may specially mention thoseof the Nematodes, by Dr. H. M. Baylis (British Museum; Natural His¬tory Section), of the Deep-sea Sponges, by Mr. L. Burton (BritishMuseum ; Natural History Section), of the Leeches, by Prof. Percy Moore(University of Pennsylvania, U. S. A.), of the Echinoids, by Dr. R.Koehler (of Lyons, France) and of the Flat-fishes, by Mr. J. R. Norman(British Museum; Natural History Section). All of these additionsmust now be accommodated in the named reserve collections. It isnow generally recognised that a named and identified collection, neces¬

sitating as it does at least one bottle for each species, occupies far moreshelf space than does an unnamed collection, and the return of thismaterial, while adding greatly to the value of the named collectionunder the care of the Survey, has taxed our accommodation to theextreme limit. The steady increase in the library of the ZoologicalSurvey of India has reached such a point that in the course of a yearor two we shall be unable to accommodate all our books, etc., in theroom at present occupied, unless very extensive alterations and theintroduction of steel-shelving throughout from floor to ceiling be car¬ried out. The appointment of an Anthropologist has furthermore ne¬cessitated the creation of an anthropological laboratory, and at thesame time the number of outside research workers in Zoology and An¬thropology has increased to such an extent that we are now compelled


iv Report on the Zoological Survey of India

from time to time to refuse requests for laboratory accommodation.A list of workers who have made use of our library and laboratoriesis given in Appendix H.

In view of these difficulties and to meet the needs for expansionof all the various sections of the Museum, the scheme for the erectionof a fire-proof building has been put forward, independently of thefive-year programme, and has been strongly recommended to the Gov¬ernment by the Trustees of the Indian Museum ; this fire-proof build¬ing will house the laboratories, library and research collections of theZoological Survey of India, and, as a result, a considerable amount ofadditional space for extra galleries will be rendered available in themain block of the Museum. It is hoped that in the very near futurethe scheme will be sanctioned and funds provided.

Staff.

During the last three years the staff of the Zoological Survey ofIndia has been increased by the temporary appointment of an Anthro¬pologist, but even now the strength of the department, as sanctionedby the Secretary of State for India, is short by two officers. Proposalswill shortly be submitted to the Government for filling up these appoint¬ments and bringing up the cadre to its sanctioned strength. On theinstitution of the Zoological Survey of India in 1916, the Anthropolo¬gical and Ethnological collections were placed under the care of theSurvey, but there was no special officer appointed to be in charge ofthese collections until 1927 when the Government of India sanctionedthe appointment of an Anthropologist and Dr. B. S. Guha was appointedas a probationer for two years. It is hoped that the Government ofIndia will confirm Dr. Guha and make the appointment a permanentone.

At the commencement of the period under review Dr. Baini Pra-shad, Superintendent, Zoological Survey of India, was away on leave.While on leave in Europe he was deputed to attend the InternationalOrnithological Congress at Copenhagen from the 19th May 1926 to2nd June 1926 as a representative of the Government of India.On his return to duty in April, 1927, he resumed charge of the mollusccollections and has been continuing his research on this group. Dr.Prashad has already achieved a considerable reputation in Interna¬tional circles as an authority on the Mollusca and he has been entrustedby Prof. Max Weber with the task of examining and reporting on thecollections of Lamellibranchs made by the ' Siboga' Expedition inthe Dutch East Indies.

In July, 1927, I proceeded home on three months' leave in orderto attend the International Congress of Zoology in Budapest. As thiswas the first occasion on which the Congress had met since 1913, I feltthat it was essential that a representative from the Zoological Surveyof India should be present in order to re-establish the friendly relation¬ship that had been interrupted during the War with Zoologists in Euro¬pean and other countries and particularly with Zoologists in what hadbeen enemy countries. The Asiatic Society of Bengal very kindly


for the years 1926-29. v

nominated me as their delegate and the Government of India sent mefrom London to Budapest as their official representative from any Sec¬tion of the British Empire. During the period of my absence Dr. BainiPrashad officiated as Director and Dr. Hora as Supejintendent. Onmy return at the beginning of October, Dr. Hora proceeded to Englandon leave and took up his residence in Edinburgh University, where hehas been carrying out research on the fauna of torrential streams forhis D.Sc. degree, which he obtained in December, 1928.

Dr. H. S. Pruthi at the commencement of the period under reviewwas on study leave in England, having been granted a Rockefeller In¬ternational Scholarship. On his return in November, 1926, he tookcharge of the Entomological collections.

Mr. George Yarugis, B.Sc. who had been filling the vacancy in thestaff of the Zoological Survey of India caused by Dr. Pruthi's leave,terminated his appointment as a temporary Assistant Superintendentbut continued to work in the Museum until November, 1926, when heleft in order to take up an appointment under Messrs. Brunner, Mond& Co. (India), Ltd.

Mr. M. Sharif, M.Sc. has more or less continuously filled up the va¬cancies during the absence, first of Dr. Baini Prashad and latter of Dr.S. L. Hora on combined leave in Europe, from 31st October, 1925 to8th April, 1927 and from 9th April, 1927 to 11th March, 1929 respect¬ively. During this time he has been working on Ticks and Fleas, bothof which are of great importance as parasites of animals, and has alreadypublished a monographic revision of the Ixodid Ticks of India.

Galleries.In my last report I called attention to the deplorable condition

of the Vertebrate galleries in the Indian Museum. As I remarked" little or no work has been done on these galleries for many years pastand the exhibits, through decay from dry-rot or old age, have steadily

b 2


vi Report on the Zoological Survey of India

deteriorated At the present time these galleries remain in very muchthe same condition, though attempts have been made to improve theexhibits by the introduction of fresh material. A number of old exhi¬bits have been removed and fresh ones introduced in their place. Alist of the new additions to the Bird and Mammal galleries is attached(Appendix F), and the collection of snakes prepared for the, exhibitionof the Far Eastern Association of Tropical Medicine has been incorpo¬rated in the exhibits of the Reptile gallery. One of the Assistant Taxi¬dermists has been detailed for special work and is at present employedin completely overhauling the Amphibian exhibits. The Fish galleryhas been improved by the addition of a number of models, exact indetail and coloured to resemble the live animal, in order to demonstratethe adaptations in this group of animals to the conditions prevailingin mountain streams and rapid running rivers. The Insect galleryis in a satisfactory condition and has been improved and enriched bythe incorporation in it of the exhibit of the natural enemies of mos¬quito larvae. This exhibit was also got together for the meeting of theFar Eastern Association of Tropical Medicine and was later transferredto the Insect gallery. In addition, enlarged models, exact in everydetail, have been made by our modeller, of the Common Cattle Tick,the Dog-flea, and of Anopheles rossi and have been added to the gal¬lery. In spite of these additions the general condition of these galleriesleaves much to be desired. The show-cases are antiquated and occupyfar more space than is necessary and a complete rearrangement is ur¬gently required. In order that the Vertebrate galleries be broughtup to date and be put in a condition comparable to those of other modernmuseums, it will be necessary to carry out extensive improvements,and the Government of India have been approached with the requestthat funds should be granted for this purpose and it is hoped that thisfinancial grant will be made in the near future.

A thorough rearranging and cataloguing of the important collectionsin the Ethnological gallery has been undertaken. As is the case withmost of the galleries of the Indian Museum, the objects in this galleryare much too crowded and in most cases they have, in the absence ofany storage rooms for reserve collections, had to be placed in the show¬cases. This has rendered adequate and intelligent display impossible.Owing to the fact that there has never in the past been a special officerof the Survey in charge of these collections, the records of the variousobjects are in many instances inadequate and in some cases have beenfound to be inaccurate and misleading. This state of affairs is, so faras is possible with our present confined space, being gradually reme¬died. The Andamanese and Nicobarese collections have been rearrang¬ed in the show-cases with proper descriptive labels, and this work willprogress steadily in the future.

Among the additions to the Ethnological gallery, I may speciallymention (1) objects from the Naga Tribes, collected for us by Dr. J.H. Hutton, (2) objects illustrating the life and habits of the Kadirsand Malayans of the Cochin Hills, procured for us by Mr. Govinda Menon,Conservator of Forests, Cochin State, and (3) Andamanese and Nieo-


for the years 1926-29. vii

Research Work in the Laboratories. , ^yv*

That a verv satisfactory amount of orip-inal research work has teencarried onfoythe department during the last three years is clearly in- \1L^dicated by the number of papers that have been published by officers 1/^of the department (vide Appendix I). As regards mv own contributions. / VW »

T have not been able to carry out as much as T had hoped and expected./ ^ ^ <

A very large part of my time has necessarily to be devoted to routine' &}>duties connected with the administration of the department and the LJU"1editing of our publications. In this latter work I have been very greatly , i.assisted by Dr. Baini Prasbad, Superintendent, and Mr. Bateman, Libra¬rian, who also acts as Press Clerk, but, even so, the time that is avail¬able for research is very limited.

With the Indianisation of the department and the slow but gradualincrease in the number of research workers in this country, there hasbeen a considerable increase in the amount of time that has had to bedevoted to the correction and emendation of papers received for publi¬cation. In certain cases, authors are not sufficiently cognisant of theEnglish language to be able to express themselves clearly and this hasentailed a very careful scrutiny and occasionally an almost completere-writing of articles submitted for publication. It was felt that onecould not decline to accept such articles, if the matter contained wasof value—even though the expression was faulty—and the correctionand re-writing of such articles occupies a considerable time. The in¬creased requirements of the Audit Department have also thrown a con¬siderably increased a,mount of work on the Plead of the department.So far as was justifiable and legitimate I have delegated a certain amountof the routine work of the department to certain of my subordinateofficers—thus Dr. Prashad lias been placed in charge of routine finan¬cial matters, and Dr. Chopra is in charge of the departmental storesand is responsible foi seeing that these are maintained in a satisfactorycondition and are periodically checked.

The Zoological Survey of India has also undertaken to submit tothe Editors of " Biological Abstracts " notices of all papers dealing withpurely zoological subjects in every serial publication printed in Indiaand Ceylon. These abstracts are of the very greatest use and import¬ance to zoologists throughout the world and it was felt that in orderto ensure that the research work being carried out in this country wasmade widely known and received full recognition from zoologists over¬seas, it was necessary that the Zoological Survey of India, who are alonein a position to carry on this work, should undertake the necessaryduties.

Among the various pieces of research that have been carried outin the laboratories of the department I may here make special men¬tion of Dr. Chopra's paper on " The Indian Ephemeropteia (Mayflies)"Part I, Mr, Mohammad Sharif's "Revision of the Indian IxodidaoP'


viii Report on the Zoological Survey of India

published in the " Records of the Indian Museum " and Dr. B. Pra-shad's two papers " Recent and Fossil Yiviparidae " (Plate A, shtl s ofViviparidae) and " The Mantle and Shell of the Viviparidae publishedin the "Memoirs These two latter papers comprise the thesis for whichDr. Prashad was awarded the D.Sc. degree by Edinburgh University.

Dr. H. S. Pruthi has been carrying out work on the revision of theIndian Jassids, and his monographic work on this important groupof bugs is nearing completion. He has also been devoting special atten¬tion to experimental Zoology in connection with the work he was doingin Europe during his tenure of the Rockefeller Research Fellowship. Theresidts of his published work in this connection have already been con¬firmed in several points by workers in other countries.

In the Anthropological laboratory, work has been steadily proceed¬ing. I have already mentioned the investigations that have been under¬taken on behalf of the Archaeological Survey of India into the humanremains excavated at Mohenjo-daro and Harappa. In my last reportI called attention to the work that had been undertaken in order toelucidate the physical features of the prehistoric and early inhabitantsof India. This work has progressed steadily and, in addition to theabove, a very important collection of skulls recovered by the BernardExpedition from the head-hunting Naga Tribes has been entrustedto us for study by the Government of Burma. The report on theselatter skulls by Dr. B. S. Guha, Anthropologist to the Zoological Surveyof India, and Mr. P. C. Bose, M.Sc., M.B., one of the research studentsworking in the laboratory, is nearing completion.

Field Work.

In continuation of the policy, that has been followed in past years,of revisiting from time to time areas that have previously been surveyed,Dr. Srinivasa Rao and Mr. Sharif carried out a tour of the backwatersof Cochin State in 1927, and the opportunity thus afforded was takenof sending Dr. Guha to the same district to carry out anthropologicalinvestigations among the primitive tribes of that area. Dr. Chopra in1929 carried out an extensive survey of some of the rivers of the NorthAVest Frontier. This was in continuation of the Mollusc Survey thatwas commenced in 1919 and has been carried on with interruptionsever since.

Two areas that are at the present time undergoing very considerablechanges, as a result of certain engineering schemes, were investigatedduring the period under review. The first of these was the MancharLake in Sind. As a result of the erection of the Sukhur Barrage onthe Indus river and the correlated extensive irrigation works the Man-char Lake will very shortly cease to exist. As this lake is a very im¬portant centre of migratory wild fowl Dr. Prashad and Dr. Choprawere sent to survey it in 1928. The second area is that of VizagapatamHarbour. Originally a backwater, this area is being constructed intoa harbour and it was thought advisable to investigate the changes thatare and will in the future be taking place as a result of this construe-

tion work. Dr. Srinivasa Rao and Mr. Varugis visited this area in May1926 and Dr. Rao paid a second visit in 1929.

During the latter part of 1926 Dr. Hora carried out a series of toursto various localities along the slopes of the Himalayas in order to makea special study of the fauna of torrential streams. During the courseof this work he visited the Kangra Valley, Kalimpong and Shillongand his results have been incorporated in his thesis " Ecology, Biono¬mics and Evolution of the Torrential Fauna " (Plates B, C, types oftorrential streams in different parts of India), for which he has beenawarded the D.Sc. of the Edinburgh University and which is beingpublished in the " Transactions of the Royal Society of London ".

The period under review has seen the completion of the report onthe survey of the Chilka Lake and we have now commenced a surveyof the fauna of the Nerbudda river. As this is one of the few largerivers of Peninsular India that flow from East to West-—all the otherssuch as the Godavari, the Kistna and the Cauvery flowing,,from Westto East—it was thought that a survey of its fauna might yield somevery interesting material. Work on this survey was commenced in1926 when, with the permission of the Durbar of Rewa State, Dr. Horabegan the investigation of the fauna of the headwaters in the neighbour¬hood of Amarkanthak. Dr. Pruthi visited this area in January, 1927,and in addition to making collections of the fauna he also carried outinvestigations regarding the Hydrogen-ion concentration of the watersof the upper tributaries. The survey was continued in 1927 by Dr.Chopra and Mr. Sharif, who carried out the investigations further tothe West and in April, 1927, and reached Jubbulpore, and later in Nov¬ember and December of the same year Dr. Pruthi again continued thesurvey carrying it on as far as Hoshangabad.

As previously mentioned, Dr. H. S. Rao carried out an extensivesurvey of the Burma-Chinese Frontier in the Upper Shan States inOctober 1926—January 1927. The primary object of this survey wasto investigate the possibility of the spread of Schistosomiasis fromChina into Burma. A large and interesting collection of Molluscs wasbrought back, but examination revealed the absence of any species like¬ly to be the intermediate host of the parasite. Dr. Chopra was simul¬taneously despatched to Burma to make a survey of the IndawgyiLake, in continuation of the Lake sirrveys instituted by the. late Dr.Annandale. The fauna of the Lake proved to be particularly interest¬ing and contains a relict marine fauna (PI. D, a species of Pipe-fish),thus corroborating the views held by Geologists that in time past theAndaman Sea extended far to the north into Upper Burma. At theconclusion of his survey of the Jake Dr. Chopra joined Dr. Rao andasisted him in his Mollusc survey of the Frontier region.

From time to time, as opportunity offered, work was continued onthe survey of the Salt Lakes in the vicinity of Calcutta, and for thispurpose a camp was erected at Dhakindari at the northern end of thelakes in April 1926, and again in February and March 1928. The thanksof the Zoological Survey are due to Mi. S. R. Lasker, of Calcutta, whoon both occasions very kindly allowed the camp to be pitched in his

c 2

garden. In August 1928 Dr. Chopra and I carried out a tour in theAndaman Islands and I also took the opportunity of visiting Car Nico-bar in order to investigate the find of several mace-heads and an axe-head that had been discovered there during the process of road making.These objects are all made from the shell of a species of Tridacna (Giantclam) and are totally unlike anything that has been previously foundin these Islands. Dr. Chopra and I accompanied by Mr. Hodgart, col¬lector, were able to make valuable collections in and around the reefsof Macpherson Strait and in this we were greatly assisted by the helpgiven to us by Mr. J. M. Wright, I.C.S., Acting Chief Commissioner,and by Mr. W. Mason, Chief Forest Officer, Andamans, who kindlyplaced the S. S. " Surmai" at our disposal while we were surveyingMacpherson Strait and a motor boat during the survey of Port BlairHarbour and its neighbourhood.

While in the Andamans I took the opportunity of visiting Car Nico-bar, accompanying Mr. J. M. Wright, Acting Chief Commissioner, ona tour of inspection. While in Car Nicobar we carried out excava¬tions at a site that had shortly before yielded several mace-heads andan axe-head, cut from the shell of the Giant clam (Tridacna). Wewere fortunate enough to find another mace-head, as well as a numberof fragments of human remains, and it seems clear that the site wasan old " bone yard " where the Nicobarese, as they still do, threw outthe remains of dead persons, after exhumation. I also took the oppor¬tunity of making a collection of Nicobarese skulls for the Indian Mu¬seum collections.

Dr. Guha has carried out two tours in the Cochin and AnamallaiHills, in order to make an anthropological survey of the primitive tribesof these regions, which are fast dying out. He was able to securevaluable anthropological and ethnological materials from these primi¬tive tribes, and he has been able to show that in the extreme interiorof these hills remnants of a genuine Negrito race still exist.

I cannot leave the consideration of this branch of work without

making some mention of the Surgeon-Naturalist to the Marine Surveyof India. Since 1916 the Surgeon-Naturalist has been an ex-ojficioofficer of the Zoological Survey and ranks as a Superintendent or Assis¬tant Superintendent according to his rank in the Indian Medical Service.

At the commencement of this triennial period the post of Surgeon-Naturalist to the Marine Survey of India*was held by Major R. W. G.Hingston, I.M.S. Major Hingston was appointed Surgeon-Naturalistin September, 1925, and at the close of his first season's work, in April,1926, proceeded to England on study leave. His period of leave wasextended by one year, at the termination of which he resigned fromthe service and the post of Surgeon-Naturalist again fell vacant. TheDirector-General of the Indian Medical Service informed the Govern¬ment of India that|he was no longer able, owing to present conditions,to provide any suitable officer to fill the vacancy and I, therefore, putforward a proposal that the appointment should be transferred fromthe Indian Medical Service to the Zoological Survey of India and that,instead of a Surgeon-Naturalist, the cadre of the Zoological Survey


for tTie'years 1926-29. xif

of India should be increased by the creation of the post of Naturalistto the Marine Survey, the necessary medical work on board the " Inves¬tigator " being entirely transferred to the Assistant Surgeon, who alreadyis in medical charge of the crew.

This proposal is understood to be still under the consideration of theGovernment of India.

Library.

Mr. C. 0. Bateman, the Librarian, submits the following report onthe library :—•

" I was in charge of the library throughout the three years underreview, except for eight months from the 7th June 1926 to the 6th Feb¬ruary 1927, when I was granted combined privilege leave and furlough.During this period Mr. E. C. Dormieux, Senior Gallery Assistant, offi¬ciated as Librarian from June 7th to October 6th, 1926 and from Octo¬ber 30th to February 6th, 1927. For the remaining period of October,from the 7th to the 29th, when Mr. Dormieux was himself on leave,Babu S. C. Ray, the Assistant Librarian, officiated in the appointment.

" At the beginning of the year 1926 the Government of India sanc¬tioned an additional post of Assistant Librarian and Babu S. C. Ray,who previously held the post of Cashier, was promoted to the new postfrom the 1st April 1926. Fie has proved a very hard working and wil¬ling assistant and has made himself conversant with the various dutiesin the library and is now of great assistance in this work.

" The additions to the library for the three years 1926-27, 1927-28and 1928-29 number 7274. They are shown in detail in Appendix J.2568 books and serials were purchased, 3894 received in exchange andthe remainder presented.

" The work in the library has been kept up to date and all new booksand serials have been catalogued and in addition the serials have beenentered up in the interleaved copy of the " Catalogue of Scientific Pe¬riodicals ". This involves some duplication of work, but should proveuseful in the event of a revised edition of the Catalogue being published.

" A work that involved a great amount of time and labour was thesorting out of a large number of books, pamphlets and serials that wererepresented in the library by duplicates. Their removal has set freea large amount of space on our shelves that was badly needed. Shellspace is a problem that is ever present in a constantly growing libraryand although we have been able to purchase five large new cases for thelibrary during the last three years this seems only to have helped matterstemporarily. Floor space and shelf space is a matter that causes veryconsiderable anxiety.

"

Every facility has been given to outside workers to consult thelibrary and during the years under report more than 70 teachers, stu¬dents and others made use of'the library. Among those that consultedthe library the following may be specially mentioned:—Mrs. II. Lind¬say, Mr. H. C. Das Gupta of the Presidency College, Dr. C. Strickland

" The practice of lending out books from the library to workers inscientific institutions and colleges throughout India and Burma is aboon that is being greatly appreciated as more than 580 volumes havebeen lent out during the last three years. In most cases the bookshave not suffered and the scheme has worked satisfactorily, but in afew instances owing to faulty packing and bad handling in the postthe books have come back to us in a torn and damaged condition. Weare taking steps to obviate damage to the covers of books by protect¬ing them with metal corner clips, but at the same time it has to be im¬pressed on the borrower that the greatest care must be taken whenpacking and returning books.

" A piece of work that involved considerable time and labour onthe part of the duftry was the sorting and rearrangement of the stockof scientific publications of the department. The publications haveentirely outgrown the space for storing them and as new publicationsare received from the printers they have to be stacked on open tables.No way out of this difficulty is at present apparent till more floor spaceand more almirahs are available.

" An important departure was made in the latter half of the year1928 in connection with the current literature. This literature was

collected and arranged alphabetically in boxes and placed in a specialalmirah set apart for the purpose. Formerly current literature wasplaced in the usual places in the shelves at the end of the series andwas scattered through the several almirahs reserved for serials. Thisinnovation will now greatly facilitate ready reference to the recentliterature in one place.

"

Owing to the great demand in which the two regular publications■—the " Records " and " Memoirs of the Indian Museum "—are held,we have been able to extend our exchange list during the last three yearsby entering into exchange relations with about 21 scientific institu¬tions and societies in Great Britain and in foreign countries. Thismethod of obtaining the publications of other institutions is of greatbenefit to the library.

" The library is one of the largest, if not the largest, of zoologicallibraries in the East, but the grant for its maintenance is not as ade¬quate as one could wish. However, in 1928 the Government of Indiasanctioned a special grant of Rs. 5,000 ; with this amount we were enabledto purchase a large number of the latest works dealing with zoologyand anthropology. The section of the library dealing with the latterscience has been sadly neglected in past years, but with the start nowmade and with the works we hope to purchase as occasion arises, we


for the years 1926-29. xiii

should have a fairly representative collection of books in this sciencein the near future.

"

Although a complete list of all additions to the library is specifiedin detail in Appendix J, it may be well to draw attention here to someof the more important books and periodicals that have been acquired.

" A complete set as far as available of the " Boletin " Memorias "and other publications of the Instituto Espanol de Oceanographia, Mad¬rid. These publications were not hitherto available in India and wereacquired by exchange.

" Nineteen volumes (Vols. XX-XXXVIII) of the " Transactions ofthe American Microscopical Society received in exchange. With theaddition of these 19 volumes the set in the library has been completedas far back as the year 1899.

" A. set of the " Journal of the Anthropological Institute of GreatBritain and Ireland" Vols. XXXII-LIII, presented by the AsiaticSociety of Bengal.

" Vols. I-XXTV (1908-1926) of " Papers from the Carnegie Insti¬tute of Washington as well as a large miscellaneous collection ofother works, presented by the Carnegie Institute. These volumes area valuable addition to our library.

" A set of " Bulletin d'Histoire Naturelle d'Autun Vols. I-XXVII(1888-1914), purchased. This serial was not available in any libraryin Calcutta.

" Several missing parts of volumes from Vol. I-XVII (1883-1928)of the " Bulletin of the Illinois State Laboratory of Natural Historyreceived in exchange."

Publications.

Fifteen parts of the " Records of the Indian Museum consistingof three parts and an appendix to Vol. XXVIII and Vols. XXIXand XXX complete, have been published during the last three years,as well as three parts of the " Memoirs ", and part X of the " Echino-derma of the Indian Museum " dealing with the Echinoidea. A com¬plete list of the papers published in these journals is to be fouud in Ap¬pendix I. A list of papers by members of the department publishedin other scientific journals is also given in the same appendix.

of

Introduction.

With the exception of the report for the year 1916-17, which dealtwith the work of the newly founded Zoological Survey of India duringthe previous year, the succeeding reports have all been triennial andhave dealt with the work of the Zoological Survey of India during theperiods under review. As was pointed out by Lt.-Col. R. B. SeymourSewell, Director of the Zoological Survey, in his triennial report for theyears 1926-29, " the work of the Zoological Survey of India has beensteadily progressing and extendingIt is, therefore, unfortunateto have to present a report for the period 1929-32 which can hardly bedescribed as an account of the progress of the work of this compara¬tively young department. During the years 1929-30 and 1930-31 thework of the department was progressing steadily, though not at the rateat which it had been anticipated when the last triennial report waspresented, but as a result of the unfortunate financial depression inthe country the final year of the period under review has been a parti¬cularly critical one in the history of the Zoological Survey of India.In pursuance of the scheme of retrenchment in the Civil expenditureduring the year 1931-32 the annual grant of the department was verymaterially reduced and as a result its activities have had to be consider¬ably curtailed. Indeed, at the present time, its work may be sum¬marised as that of conservation and preservation of the material andinformation collected since the foundation of the department in 1916and prior to that by the Natural History Section of the Indian Museumsince 1875, rather than of carrying out both extensive and intensivesurveys of the fauna of the vast area of India.

2. During the first two years of the period under review the " friend¬ly collaboration either with research institutions or purely educationalbodies " referred to in the previous triennial reports steadily increased,and it was generally being recognised more and more by other institu¬tions and Provincial governments that the Zoological Survey can helpmaterially in connexion with any enquiries of a zoological nature thatare referred to this department.

3. During the period under review the department has, in additionto numerous minor enquiries, been asked for advice about (1) the shellfisheries in the Andamans and their economic exploitation, (2) theidentification of monkeys, rats, Cyclops and other animals for the Cal-


ii Report on the Zoological Survey of India

cutta School of Tropical Medicine, together with references to relevantliterature in a number of instances in connection with the researchwork of that institution, (3) supervision in connexion with the excava¬tion and identification of the human and animal remains at Harappaand Mohenjo-daro, and (4) anthropological work connected with theCensus operations.

4. It is not necessary to consider in detail the work which this de¬partment has had to do in reference to the identification of variouskinds of animals for the Calcutta School of Tropical Medicine, the Ilar-court Butler Institute of Public Health, Rangoon, the Bombay NaturalHistory Society and other Institutions all over India.

5. The supervision in connexion with the excavation and identifica¬tion of the human and animal remains at Harappa and Mohenjo-darohas entailed a great deal of work on the Anthropologist and other officersof the department. The amount of work which still remains to be doneis fairly large and will take the officers of the department several yearsbefore the results can be completed. Details of the Anthropologicalwork in connexion with the Census Operations are given further onand I need only remark here that the work done under the supervisionof the Anthropologist of this department will make the forthcomingCensus Report much more valuable and complete than the previousReports.

6. Early in 1930 it was found that fishing for Trochus shells hadbeen carried on surreptitiously by Japanese divers coming over to theAndamans in motor boats from Singapore, and at the instance of thethen Chief Commissioner, Lt.-Col. M. L. Ferrar, investigations werestarted by Dr. S. L. Hora and myself for devising means of conservingthe fishery and making it into a source of permanent income to theAndaman Administration. After the preliminary investigations referredto above further work was continued by two of the assistants of thedepartment and later by Dr. S. B. Setna, Ph.D., Officiating AssistantSuperintendent. Dr. C. Amirthalingam, who was specially appointedas the Research Officer, Andaman Fisheries, started work at Port Blairon the 22nd June 1931. His investigations have mainly been directedto the investigation of the scientific aspects of the various phases inthe life-history of the Trochu-s, popularly known as the Top or Pagodashell. The work which the officer has done has consisted primarilyin the charting of the shell-beds in the area, investigations regardingthe biology of the mollusc, Trochus niloticus, its age of maturity, itsbreeding season, the season and rate of growth of its shell, and finally,its enemies. A short period of roughly one year is not sufficient forall these problems to be worked out in detail, but Dr. Amirthalingamhas achieved certain definite results. In reference to this mollusc hehas found that it reaches maturity when about 2 years old; at thisstage the shells are approximately 6-7 cm. in diameter. The breeding-season of this animal in the Andaman waters appears to extend fromApril to June, i.e., during the hot months. After careful observationit has been ascertained that it grows during the monsoon and wintermonths, i.e., from July to February or even March. The rate of growthis 2-3 cm. in height per annum for the first 3-4 years, but later the rate


for the years 1929-32. iii

becomes much slower. Investigations bave also been made regardingthe biology and tbe enemies of this gastropod. The economic resultsof the enquiry are very gratifying. As a result of the modificationsin the regulations governing the issue of licenses for 'the shell-fishing,the royalty for fishing has increased from Rs. 13,114-8-0 in 1929-30 toRs. 17,920 in 1931-32. Dr. Amirthalingam has also done very usefulwork in connexion with the drawing up of regulations for fishing (sensustricto) and the sale of fish in the Andaman and Nicobar waters.

7. No greater compliment could have been paid to the biologicaland the survey work carried on by the staff of the department sinceits foundation than the fact that for the three- important oceanogra-phical and biological expeditions planned or sent out from Englandduring the last decade the leaders of the expeditions should have beenselected from the staff of the Zoological Survey of India. The threeexpeditions are (i) the " Discovery Expedition " to the South Seasfor the investigations of the Whale Fisheries, of which Dr. S. W. Kemp,the then Superintendent of the Zoological Survey of India, was selectedas leader in 1923, (ii) the " Oxford University Expedition " to the forestsof British Guiana in South America of which Major R. W. G. Hingston,who was for a time the Surgeon-Naturalist and an ex-ofjicio memberof the staff of the Zoological Survey of India, was the leader, and (iii)the ' John Murray Oceanographical Expedition" to the Arabian Seaand the Persian Gulf, the leadership of which has been offered toLt.-Col. R. B. Seymour Sewell. A further recognition of the work ofthe Zoological Survey is the change initiated in the policy of the workof the Natural History Museum, South Kensington, London, TheTrustees on the recommendation of the authorities of the Museumhave started sending the workers in the Museum on special expedi¬tions for working in the field and thus gaining a first-hand knowledgeof the groups of animals on which they are working. This policy hadbeen adopted by the late Dr. N. Aimandale, the first Director and foun¬der of the Zoological Survey of India, in connexion with the workof the Natural History Section of the Indian Museum as early as 1907,and later with the foundation of the Survey in 1916, survey work inthe field became an essential part of the duties of the officers of thedepartment.

Staff.

8. The temporary appointment of the Anthropologist referred toin the triennial report for 1926-29 was included in the permanent cadreof the Zoological Survey on 28th June 1929, and Dr. B. S. Guha wasconfirmed in this post. The post of the Anthropologist is one of theappointments of Assistant Superintendents sanctioned for the depart¬ment in 1922, some of which for various reasons have not been filledup so far. During the period under review the post of the Surgeon-Naturalist, which hitherto was held by an officer of the Indian MedicalService jointly lent to the Royal Indian Marine and the ZoologicalSurvey of India, was definitely transferred to the cadre of the Zoolo¬gical Survey, but as a measure of economy the post has not been filled.


iv Report on the Zoological Survey of India

up. It may here be remarked that there has been no Surgeon-Natu¬ralist or Naturalist as he will be termed hereafter, on board the R. I.M. S. " Investigator " since 1926.

9. At the commencement of the period under review, Lt.-Col. R. B.Seymour Sewell, Director, Zoological Survey of India, was away cticombined leave from the 23rd March 1929 to 9th January 1930, duringwhich period I officiated as Director. Part of this leave Col. Sewellspent in study at the British Museum, London, working out the collections of Copepods from the Indian Ocean—a subject on which hehad been engaged for several years. Col. Sewell again went on leaveon the 21st September. 1931 and is not due to return to India till the21st September 1932. Meanwhile the post of Director has, as a mea¬sure of economy, been held in abeyance, and I have been holding chargeof the entire department in my capacity as Superintendent.

10. While on leave out of India for 7 months in 1930, I was deputedby the Government of India to the United States of America for a periodof 4 months to study museum administration and the Natural HistoryMuseums in the United States. I was also placed on deputation fromthe 1st to the 7th of June 1930 to attend the International Ornitholo¬

gical Congress at Amsterdam.11. Dr. S. L. Hora officiated as Superintendent, Zoological Survey

of India, during the absence of Lt.-Col. R. B. Seymour Sewell, Director,on leave and later when I was away on leave in Europe. He was oncombined leave from 7th April 1931 in Europe and during this periodworked in various Natural History Museums in Europe studying thetypes and original specimens of different families of fishes.

12. Dr. B. N. Chopra, Dr. Hem Singh Pruthi and Dr. B. S. Guhawere on continuous duty during the period under review and did nottake any long leave.

13. Dr. H. S. Rao was away on combined leave in Europe for 15months from 4th June, 1929. He spent almost the whole of this timeworking in various Natural History Museums and Marine BiologicalStations in Europe. The experience gained by him as a result of thiswork should prove of great value to the department. Dr. Rao againtook leave for one month from 2nd January 1932.

14. Dr. Mohammad Sharif was appointed in the leave vacancycaused by Dr. H. S. Rao's proceeding on leave and continued to actin this vacancy till the 2nd July 1930. He was on leave for two monthsand one day from the 3rd July 1930 before the termination of his ser¬vice.

15. Dr. S. B. Setna, Ph.D., was appointed in the chain of my leavevacancy on 28th April 1930 and continued to act in this vacancy till10th March 1931. During the major part of his tenure he was engagedon useful work connected with the Andaman fisheries.

16. As has been mentioned already, the Government of India in1930 sanctioned a special Research Officer for the Andaman fisheries,and Dr. C. Amirthalingam, Ph.D., was selected by a specially consti¬tuted committee in London. He joined service on 22nd May 1931


for the years 1929-32. v

and lias been working since his appointment in the Andamans. Asa measure of economy the post of the Andaman Fishery ResearchOfficer, which was sanctioned in the first instance for 5 years, wasbrought under reduction from 8th June 1932, and Dr. Amirthalingamin accordance with his contract was served with six months' notice of

discharge from 8th December 1931. Later his service was extended forone month and he retired from his present appointment on 8th July1932.

17. I append below a statement showing the leave taken by variousofficers during the period under review.

18. Amongst the Superior Non-Gazetted stall I would particularlylike to record the very good work done by Babu A. C. Chowdhury andBabu Sib Chandra Mondul, the two senior artists of the department,who have earned an international reputation for the work they havedone for the department during the last 35 years. Both of them, thoughthey had reached the maximum age limit were kept on in the depart¬ment, as both of them, in spite of their age, were still capable of doingwork of exceptional merit, and it was found impossible to replace them.I would also like to record here the good work done by Mr. R. A. Hod-gart, the Zoological Collector, and Babu J. N. Bagchi, the Head Clerk,both of whom had to retire prematurely in pursuance of the schemeof retrenchment.

vi Report on the Zoological Survey of India

Field Work.

19. In accordance with, the general policy of the work of the depart¬ment every officer, as far as possible, used to spend 2-3 months in thefield every year. Special tours were arranged as opportunity offeredand so far as funds permitted. The policy of revisiting from time totime areas previously surveyed, to complete the faunistic results orto extend biological information already obtained, has also been fol¬lowed.

20. Two important tours were undertaken during the year 1929-30,one being to Chitral in connexion with the visit of Dr. George Morgen-stierne, who had applied to the Government of India, through the Nor¬wegian Institute for Comparative Research in Human Culture, forpermission to proceed to Chitral to carry out a linguistic survey of thatarea. He was accompanied by a zoologist, Dr. B. N. Chopra, and theAnthropologist, Dr. B. S. Guha, from the Zoological Survey. A veryinteresting collection, both of the fauna and of the ethnographical ob¬jects, was obtained and measurements of a fair number of the inhabi¬tants of the country were taken. The second important tour duringthe year 1929-30 was a survey of the Eastern Ghats in collaborationwith the Bombay Natural History Society. Large collections of theinvertebrate and vertebrate fauna of the area were brought back ; partsof these have already been worked out in the laboratories of this de¬partment and by specialists abroad, and incorporated in the reservecollections.

21. In 1930-31 the tours were mainly restricted to investigationsin connexion with the study of the fauna of the hill-streams under thedirection of Dr. S. L. Hora. A party was sent to the Salt Range inthe Punjab to study the fauna in the streams that commence as fresh¬water, but during their flow through salt-bearing regions graduallybecome strongly saline. Tours in connexion with the investigationsregarding the changes that occur in the fauna of streams and riversas the waters changes from fresh through brackish to salt, were under¬taken in various localities along the course of the Hooghly where theadmixture of fresh water with the sea water brought in by the tidesproduces a great deal of change both in the milieu and on the biologicalconditions governing the life of the animals living under such varyingconditions.

22. The field investigations of the Survey during the year 1931-32 were very materially restricted as a result of the greatly reducedfunds, a great reduction in the staff and the reorganisation of the workof the department on a maintenance basis. During the year underreview two of the officers, Lt.-Col. R. B. Seymour Sewell and Dr. H.Srinivasa Rao worked in the Western Ghats in connexion with the prob¬lem of the freshwater Medusa, Limnocnida, and a fair amount of valu¬able information regarding the life-history of this archaic animal wasobtained as a result of this investigation. Further investigations onthe fauna and biological conditions in the saline waters of the Salt Rangewere carried out by Dr. Hem Singh Pruthi, and the results of his inves¬tigations which have added materially to our knowledge of the biono-


for the years 1929-32. vii

mics of the freshwater animals living under such varying conditionsof salinity, are ready for the press. Tours were also undertaken inconnexion with further investigations on the changes in the salinityand of the animal life in the waters of the Hooglily referred to in thetours for 1930-31. The work which the Survey has been doing forsometime past on the animal life of the backwaters was further ex¬tended under the guidance of Dr. B. N. Chopra to the backwaters tothe north of Calicut and Bangalore on the western coast of India.

23. During the period under review several officers of the depart¬ment worked in the Andamans from time to time in connexion withthe investigations of the Troclius fishery and the biological conditionsgoverning the life of this mollusc in the Andaman waters. Preliminaryinvestigations were carried out by Dr. S. L. Hora and myself and furtherwork was done by Col. Sewell, Dr. S. B. Setna and the assistants, BabuD. D. Mukerji and Babu K. N. Das. Since the appointment of thespecial Fishery Research Officer this work has been carried out by Dr.C. Amirthalingam, who made extensive tours in the Archipelago andas far as possible ascertained the extent and nature of the shell-bedsin the area.

24. Dr. B. S. Guha's tour to Chitral has been, casually mentionedabove. During this trip Dr. Guha paid special attention to a studyof the anthropology of the very interesting race of Kaffirs of that region.The Kaffirs are being rapidly converted to Islam and all their ancientrites and customs are dying out. Two villages of the Kaffirs werevisited by Dr. Guha during his tour and information regarding thevarious rites and institutions of the Kaffirs was, as far as possible, re¬corded. Dr. Guha further took anthropometrical measurements ofnearly 800 people of almost all the major racial groups representedin the area. It is hoped that the results, when completely workedout, will prove of special importance in reference to the racial consti¬tution of the people of Northwestern India. In connexion with theCensus operations the services of Dr. Guha were, with the approvalof the Government of India, lent for a time to the Census Department.Dr. Guha on behalf of this department visited Guzrat, Kathiawar,Poona, Orissa, the Indian States of Bhavnagar, Indore, Birwani, Rewa,Hyderabad, Mysore and Cochin, the Portuguese Goa and various partsof the Madras Presidency. During his tours he took anthropometricalmeasurements and secured photographs of a very large number of in¬habitants of the various parts of the country visited by him; the datacollected by him are now being worked out in the laboratories of thedepartment.

Research Work in the Laboratories.

25. The satisfactory extent of the research work carried out bythe officers of the department during the period under review is clearlyindicated by the number of papers they have published (vide Appen¬dix I). As Col. Sewell noted in his remarks in the report for the years1926-29, the major part of his time during his tenure as Director hadto be devoted to the routine duties connected with the administrationof the department and to the editing of the departmental publications.

viii Report on. the Zoological Survey of India

Since Col. Sewell went on leave the administration of the departmenthas become especially heavy. The reorganisation of the department,as a result of the scheme of retrenchment, has involved much extrawork not only in the office but also in connection with the proper up¬keep of the various collections and the issue of the publications of thedepartment. In this work I was materially assisted by Dr. B. N. Chopraa*nd Dr. H. S. Rao.

26. During the period under review several papers received fromoutside sources both in this country and abroad have had to be care¬fully edited and in several cases almost entirely re-written before theycould be published. All this has entailed a great deal of labour, butthe time spent on this work has greatly enhanced the value of the con¬tributions for the zoological workers in this country.

27. In 1929 the first part of Col. Sewell's monographic work on theCopepoda of the Indian seas was published as part I of Vol. X of the'' Memoirs of the Indian Museum ". In this work the author, besidesdealing with the species which he had studied himself, has includedreferences to the Indian species and made the memoir as complete aspossible. The second part of this monograph is in the press and willbe published shortly. In addition to the above, Col. Sewell's Presiden¬tial Address to the 18th Session of the Indian Science Congress, en¬titled " Problems of Evolution ", his paper on the Cercarie Nicoharicaepublished in the " Indian Journal of Medical Research ", and his con¬tributions on the human and animal remains from Mohenjo-daro andHarappa, in collaboration with Dr. B. S. Gulia, published in Sir JohnMarshall's memorable volumes on Mohenjo-daro, are to be speciallynoted.

28. During the period under review I was invited by the editor ofthe " Fauna of British India " to contribute a volume on the IndianPelecypods to the " Fauna " series. A grea-t deal of work in this con¬nexion has already been done and the work which I had been doing onthe Pelecypods of the Dutch East Indies (a volume on the results ofthis work has been in the hands of printers for over a year, and is ex¬pected to be issued during the current year) has greatly advanced thework in connexion with the " Fauna " volume. Reference may alsobe made to a series of four papers entitled " A Revision of the AsiaticSpecies of the Genus Corhicula " published in Vol. IX of the " Memoirsof the Indian Museum ". Other contributions by me on the IndianFauna were published in the " Records of the Indian Museum", the" Records of the Geological Survey of India the " Journal of theBombay Natural History Society the " Proceedings of the Malacolo-gical Society of London " and the " Proceedings of the Royal Societyof Edinburgh ".

29. The work done by Dr. S. L. Hora on the Ecology, Bionomicsand Evolution of the torrential fauna was published during the periodunder review in the " Transactions of the Royal Society of London ".This work, which was presented as a thesis for the D. Sc. Degree of theEdinburgh University, is of very great importance. It is the resultof several years' work in the field, in the' laboratories of the department


for the years 1929-32.

and later in the Zoological Department of the Edinburgh University.In addition to the above Dr. Hora has published several small contri¬butions on fishes from different parts of India. Eor sometimes past hehas been engaged in working out the collections made by the DutchKarakorum Expedition and the fish collected in Chitral.

30. Dr. B. N. Chopra, the Carcinologist, has been working on theCrustacean collections in the Indian Museum and has published a numberof valuable papers on various families of shrimps and crabs in a seriesentitled " Further Notes on Crustacea Decapoda in the IndianMuseum."

31. As has been remarked already, Dr. H. Srinivasa Rao duringhis combined leave worked in various European Museums studyingthe collections of Sponges from the Indian Ocean, and a paper by him,in collaboration with Mr. M. Burton of the British Museum, entitled" On a Revision of Indian Sponges " is now in the press. In additionhe has published several papers on various groups of invertebrates.

32. The first part of the " Revision of Indian Jassids " by Dr. H. S.Prutlii was published as No. 1 of Vol. XI of the " Memoirs of the IndianMuseum". Other parts of the series are in course of preparation.He has also been devoting special attention to Experimental Zoologyand has published a paper in the " Indian Journal of Medical Research "on the influence of temperature and hydrogen-ion concentration onmosquito larvae, and another paper on the causes leading to fish mor¬tality in the Museum tank. This latter work, which was published in" Int. Revue Hydrob. u. Hydrog. Leipzig is of special importance inconnexion with our knowledge of the several important problems inregard to the biology, distribution and mutual relationships of thevarious elements of freshwater faunas. It is a well recognised fact thatthe study of the environments in which various animals live is essentialfor systematic work, and Dr. Pruthi's investigations of the biologicalconditions in the Indian Museum tank have greatly advanced ourknowledge of the ecology of such areas. The adaptation of marinefaunas to freshwater conditions and vice versa has a very importantbearing on the theory of evolution in reference to the origin of differentfaunas. We are fairly well-informed about the faunas of the seacoasts and the estuaries, but very few inland streams, the water ofwhich is highly saline, have been investigated from this point of view.Dr. Pruthi's investigations of the highly brackish streams in the SaltRange in the Punjab, the results of which are ready for the press, havematerially advanced our knowledge of the conditions which governthe animals living in such areas.

33. Dr. M. Sharif who worked as an Officiating Assistant Superin¬tendent in the department for several years, published a paper on IndianFleas and this paper together with the one on Indian Ticks publishedby him previously, served as a thesis for the D.Sc. Examination ofthe University of the Punjab in 1930.

34. The assistants, Messrs. S. Ribeiro, D. D. Mukerji, J. L. Bhaduri,K. N. Das and M. N. Datta have also published several useful paperseither by themselves or in collaboration with the officers under whomthey are working.


X Report on the Zoological Survey of India

35. The progress of the research work in the Anthropological Sec¬tion has been very satisfactory. A number of reports by Col. Sewelland Dr. B. S. Guha on the skulls discovered by Sir Aurel Stein in Mekranand those first found at Mohenjo-daro has already been published andthe work on the second find of skeletons from Mohenjo-daro and Harappais now in progress. In addition, some work has also been done on theskulls discovered by Sir John Marshall at Taxilla and by Mr. Ghoseat the Mauryan site at Bulandibag near Patna. At the suggestionof Dr. J. H. Hutton, Census Commissioner for India, Dr. Guha hascarried out anthropological investigations on the inhabitants of variousparts of India. Several thousand subjects have been measured anda great mass of data collected. These are being biometrically analysedby three statisticians under Dr. Guha's supervision, and it is hopedthat the publication of the results, when fully worked out, will supplyat least some information regarding the origins and relationships of theinhabitants of different parts of India.

3,6. In 1931 a new publication sanctioned by the Government ofIndia was started under the title " Anthropological Bulletins fromthe Zoological Survey of India The first part of this publication,which was issued in 1931, deals with the human relics recovered bythe Naga Hills (Burma) Expedition for the abolition of Human Sacrificeduring 1926-27. It is a joint work by Dr. B. S. Guha and Mr. P. C.Basu, a research scholar in Anthropology of the Government of Bengal.Other numbers of this series are being prepared and will be issued whenready.

37. Two distinguished Zoologists, Dr. A. S. Pearse of the DukeUniversity, Durham, North Carolina, and Dr. Percy Moore of the Uni¬versity of Philadelphia, worked in the laboratories of the departmentfor several months on special biological problems.

Galleries.

38. In the last triennial report Col. Sewell drew attention to thedeplorable condition of the zoological (vertebrate) galleries in the IndianMuseum. Unfortunately owing to lack of funds very little progresshas been made either in the rearrangement of the galleries or theintroduction of new exhibits. The old Eish Gallery was entirely dis¬mantled and reconstructed by remodelling the old cases without muchadditional expenditure. Most of the old exhibits, models, stuffed andspirit specimens have been replaced in the newly arranged gallery by freshmaterial. Unfortunately owing to the very limited space, this galleryis very congested and consequently a small number of exhibits onlycan be accommodated in the rearranged gallery. Exhibits illustratingthe development and parental care of fishes, fishes of hill-streams andthose inhabiting streams of high altitudes, as also peculiar deltaic forms,special types of fishes found in the Burmese and Assamese lakes anduseful and poisonous fishes have in addition to the usual systematicexhibits been placed in the new gallery. The rearrangement, however, isa purely make-shift one and will have to be greatly modified when suffi¬cient funds are available. A certain amount of rearrangement and


for the years 1929-32. xi

replacement of the old and deteriorated exhibits in the mammal gallerieshas also been carried out during the period under review, but with thevery greatly reduced staff in the taxidermist department it will not bepossible to carry out the scheme of reorganisation which had been pre¬pared for the bird and mammal galleries. Work in these galleries willhereafter, with the small staff available, be confined to maintenanceand, as far as possible, to replacement of some of the exhibits fromtime to time.

39. The rearrangement and cataloguing of the collections in theethnological gallery referred to in the last triennial report is still goingon and unfortunately, owing to lack of storage rooms for the reservecollections, and want of assistants will take several years to complete it.The objects in certain show cases have been rearranged as far as possiblewith proper descriptive labels and further work in this connexion isbeing carried on, but it is not possible to bring the gallery to a reallyfirst-rate condition till more funds and staff are available. Theseremarks apply in general to all the galleries under the charge of theZoological Survey of India, and I am afraid this activity of tie depart¬ment will be further curtailed as a result of the reduction in the staffand the grants of the department under the retrenchment scheme.

40. A detailed list of the specimens added to the exhibits in thepublic galleries is given in Appendix E.

Reserve Collections.41. The reserve collections of the department have increased tre¬

mendously. Large collections of unnamed material have been workedout and incorporated in the reserve collections during the period underreview. Amongst the invertebrates mention must be made of the col¬lections of porifera, certain groups of coelenterata, polyzoa, hirudinea,acanthocephala, polychaeta, nematoda and certain groups of echino-derms. The mollusca and crustacea collections are being rearrangedand card-catalogues of the various groups are under preparation.

42. In the insect section the spirit collection was taken out of the.old show cases and rearranged and put into suitable glass cases. Alarge amount of material sent out for identification to specialists abroadhas been received back and incorporated in the reserve collections.

43. The most important work in connection with the rearrangementof the insect collection was the amalgamation and rearrangement of theMuseum and the de Niceville collections of Butterflies which was doneby Brigadier W. H. Evans. The de Niceville collection, as is well-known, is one of the finest collections of Oriental Rhopalocera in theworld. Brigadier Evans, who is recognised as an authority on theseforms, very kindly undertook the work of rearrangement and amal¬gamation of this collection with the Indian Museum collection, and as aresult of uninterrupted work for three months the rearrangement wascompleted about the end of December 1931. The entire collection isnow stored in 30 insect cabinets and is easily available for study. Acard-catalogue of the collection is being prepared and the old pins ofmost of the specimens are being replaced ; this work will take severalyears before it is finally completed.


xii Report on the Zoological Survey of India

44. A fair amount of work was done in rearranging the reserve col¬lections of fish and reptiles and a certain amount on the mammal col¬lections. The collection of bones was overhauled and properly labelled.

45. Thanks to the work done by Dr. Satya Churn Law, an enthu¬siastic ornithologist, the rearrangement of the bird collections of theSurvey has been started and a fair amount of work in this connexionhas already been done. It will, however, be several years before theentire collection is overhauled and brought up to date, both in refer¬ence to the identifications and its arrangement. Dr. Law has, besidesdevoting a great deal of his time to the bird collection, presented largenumbers of skins collected by him in different parts of the country.

46. In Appendices A and B details are given of the collections sentto specialists for study or identification and the collections returnedafter identification.

Library.

47. Mr. C. 0. Bateman, the Librarian, retired on 1st February 1932after serving in the department for nearly 37 years. Throughout hisservice he did extremely valuable work, and I should particularly liketo place on record here the very good work that he did in connexionwith the library and the publications of the department. The excel¬lent condition in which he left the Zoological Survey of India libraryin spite of the very small staff available is to be attributed to his devo¬tion and energy.

48. In 1931 the already insufficient staff of the library was in con¬sonance with the general scheme of retrenchment in the departmentstill further reduced, and only one assistant, Babu S. C. Ray, who washitherto known as the Assistant Librarian, has been left in the library.

4-9. He submits the following report on the library ;—" The library is in good order and the books are generally in a good

state of preservation. The cataloguing of all additions has been carriedout in the manuscript catalogues and the new serials have been enteredup in the interleaved copy of the " Catalogue of Scientific periodicals ".

" The additions to the library for the years 1929-30, 1930-31 and1931-32 number 7,921. They are shown in detail in Appendix J. 2,353books and serials were purchased, 4,764 received in exchange and theremainder presented.

"

During the period under report many valuable and interesting-works have been received by gift, exchange and purchase. Dr. BainiPrashad, while on deputation to the United States of America, tookthe opportunity to secure several rare and valuable books which hehas kindly presented to the library. He was also able to obtain fromseveral institutions the missing parts of a number of serial publicationswhich were wanting in our sets.

" There is a growing demand for the two publications issued bythe department, viz., the " Records " and the " Memoirs of the IndianMuseum and as a result 10 institutions and societies- in Great Britainand in foreign countries have been added to our exchange list during the


for the years 1929-32. xiiila

st three years. Several other requests for the exchange of publica-tlons had to be turned down owing to the limited edition of the " Re¬cords " and " Memoirs

"

Storage space in the library is a pressing need with the growthand the development of the library, and although three new cases forthe library were added during the last three years still more almirahswill have to be arranged for the library before very long. Unfortunatelythe library room is already full and there is no space for further almirahsunless a second gallery is arranged above the existing book-cases.

" The practice of lending out books to workers in scientific institu¬tions and colleges throughout India and Burma is a boon that is beinggreatly appreciated. More than 874 volumes were lent out during thelast three years. In most cases the books did not suffer any damageduring transit and the scheme has worked satisfactorily. In a fewinstances, however, owing to faulty packing and bad handling the bind¬ings of the books were received in a damaged condition; these werereplaced at the cost of the borrowers.

"

Every facility has been given to outside workers to consult thelibrary and during the years under report more than 90 teachers, stu¬dents and others made use of the library. Among those who consultedthe library the following may be specially mentioned:—Brigadier W.H. Evans, C.S.I., C.I.E., D.S.O., Rai Bahadur Dr. Gopal Chandra Chat-terjee, Medical College, Calcutta, Mr. H. R. Hargreaves, M.A., Director-General of Archeology, Mr. J. N. Basu, M.A., B.L., M.L.C., Calcutta,Dr. J. H. Hutton, D.Sc., I.C.S., C.I.E., Census Commissioner for India,Prof. Hem Chandra Das Gupta, M.A., Presidency College, Calcutta,Prof. Percy Moore, Pennsylvania University, Philadelphia, U. S. A.,Dr. S. C. Law, M.A., B.L., Ph.D., Calcutta, Dr. C. Strickland and Dr.P. A. Maplestone, of the Calcutta School of Tropical Medicine, Dr.V. T. Korke, of the Indian Research Eund Association, Mr. J. C. Gar¬diner, Research Institute, Dehra Dun, Prof. D. R. Bhattacharya, Alla¬habad University, Prof. A. S. Pearse, Duke University, North Carolina,U. S. A., Dr. Syuti Issiki, School of Agriculture and Forestry, TaihokuImperial University, Japan, Dr. Ekendra Nath Ghosh, M.D., Calcutta,and the staff of the Zoology Department of the Science College of theCalcutta University.

" The library is one of the largest, if not ' by far the best Zoologicallibrary in the whole of Asia ', but with the present grant for its main¬tenance it will hardly be possible to keep up the present condition ofthe library. Already as a measure of economy several serial publica¬tions have been discontinued, and no new works are being purchased ".

Publications.

50. Fourteen parts of the " Records of the Indian Museum " con¬sisting of two parts and an Appendix to Vol. XXXI and Vol. XXXIIcomplete, have been published during the last three years, as well asfive parts of the " Memoirs", and No. I of the " AnthropologicalBulletins from the Zoological Survey of India ". A complete list of the

c


xlv Report on the Zoological Survey of India

papers published in these journals is given in Appendix I (a), while alist of papers by members of the department published in otherscientific journals is published in Appendix I (b).

Conclusion.

51. Before closing this report I should like to record my indebted¬ness to my colleagues and the staff of the department for the very goodwork they have done under very difficult conditions. The staff of thedepartment and the grant for its maintenance have been very mate¬rially reduced, but the work, except for fresh field investigations, re¬mains the same as ever—in fact in most sections it has very materiallyincreased owing to the smaller number of assistants. It is, however,hoped that with improved conditions it will not be long before the de¬partmental grants are materially increased and the work of the depart¬ment can be carried on as heretofore.
