26 Somateria mollissima, Leach. Sjelden. Larus glaucus, Briin. Almindelig. Pulmarus gladalis, Lin. Overordentlig talrig. Grylle Mandti, Liclit. Talrig. Uria arra, Schlegel. Talrig. Mergulus alle, Lin. Talrig. Tringa maritima? Er Landets Fauna fattig, er derimod Havets desto rigere, hvorom Yidnesbyrd vil foreligge i samtlige zoologiske Afhaudlinger i denne Generalberetning. Bemerkninger til Kartet. Kartprojectionener Mercators. Maalestokken 1:200,000. Navnene paa Kartet ere alle paaf’orte af mig. Jeg liar for det fdrste belioldt alle de gamle hollandske Navne, i Originalsproget eller oversatte. Dernsest liar jeg belioldt alle de af Scoresby og Carl Yogt givne Navne. Og ende- lig bar jeg tilfdjet en Del nye Navne. Disse ere: Wey- prechts Brce, til Minde om den fremragende Polarfarer, hvis store Plan til Undersdgelse af Polarlandenes fysiske Eorhold nu bliver realiseret; Kjerulfs Brce, efter den beromte norske Geolog; Foyns Brce, efter Capt. Svend Eoyn, der var den fdrste Nordmand, som gik i Spidsen for de Norskes Stel- fangst ved Jan Mayen; Krater Sars, efter Expeditionens Medlem, Prof. G. 0. Sars; Clandeboye Creek, det Punkt, hvor Lord Dufferin var i Land (efter velvillig skriftbg Med- delelse fra Lord D.; se ogsaa “Letters from High Latitudes”, Side 165); Lord Dufferins Brce; Frieles Brce, Griegs Brce, Willes Brce, Petersens Brce, Schiertz’s Top, efter Deltagerne i vor Expedition; Krater Yor ingen, efter Expeditionens Skib; JHosaatm, det lille Krater i Naerheden af Hoyberg (etNavn, der betegner et Tag over en Hostak, der minder om den regelmaessige Kegleform1); Krater Danielssm, efter Expeditionens Medlem, Dr. Danielssen, der botaniserede her; Krater Blytt, efter Prof. A. Blytt, der bar bestemt de paa Jan Mayen indsamlede Planter; Tornoes Bcek, efter Expeditionens Medlem, Chemikeren H. Tornde, som fandt denne, ret vandrige Bade; Scoresby’s Berg, efter den beromte Hvalfanger, bvem Jan Mayens Geografi skylder saa meget. 1 Meddelelse af Dr. Snellen i Utrecht. Somateria mollissima, Leach. — Rare. Larus glaucus, Briin. — Common. Fidmarus gladalis, Lin. — Exceedingly abundant. Grylle Mandti, Licht. — Abundant. Uria arra, Schlegel. — Abundant. Mergulus alle, Lin. — Abundant. Tringa maritima? If the land Fauna of the island is meagre, that of the sea is proportionately rich, a fact which the numerous zoological Memoirs published in this General Report will sufficiently attest. Remarks on the Map. The Map is on Mercator’s projection, scale ttIttvrtt- All of the names are selected by myself. First, I have chosen to retain the old Dutch names, either in the original language or translated. Secondly, I have kept all the names given by Scoresby and Carl Vogt. And finally, I have added new names, viz. Weyprecht's Glacier, in memory of the renowned traveller, whose comprehensive plan for the investigation of the physical conditions of the Arctic Regions is now in course of realisation; Kjerulfs Glacier, after the celebrated Norwegian geologist; Foyn’s Glader, after Captain Svend Foyn, the first of his countrymen who started a Norwegian sealing fishery off the coasts of Jan Mayen; Sars’s Crater, after Professor G. 0. Sars, member of the Expedition; Clandeboye Creek, the spot where Lord Dufferin landed (as kindly communicated by that nobleman from Constantinople; see, too, “Letters from High Lati- tudes,” p. 165); Lord Bufferin’s Glader; Friele’s Glade)-, Grieg’s Glade)-, Wille’s Glacier, Petersen’s Glade)-, Schiertz’s Peak, after gentlemen who took part in the Expedition; the Voringen Crate)-, after the name of the vessel; Hosaa- ten (haycock), the small crater in the vicinity of Mount Hoyberg (Hoyberg is a Dutch word signifying the roof of a haystack1 that in form has some resemblance to a volcanic cone); Danielssen’s Crater, after Dr. Danielssen, member of the Expedition, who botanised on its slope; Blytt’s Crate)-, after Professor A. Blytt, who has determined the specimens of plants collected on Jan Mayen; Tornoe’s Iiimdet, after Mr. H. Tornde, chemist to the Expedition, who on one of our excursions found this for Jan Mayen j copious spring of water; Mount Scoresby, after the enter- prising British whaler to whom the geography of Jan Mayen is so greatly indebted. 1 Communicated by Dr. Snellen of Utrecht.
