Les espèces du genre scylla a Nhatrang (Vietnam)

The species of Scylla found in Vietnam have been studied in relation to the systematic revision made by Estampador, and to establish the distinctive morphological characters of the species. The status of four forms is discussed: Scylla oceanica, Sc. tranquebarica, Sc. serrata, and Sc. serrata var. paramamosain.

Note préliminaire sur huit espèces nouvelles, dont une d'un genre nouveau, d'Hapalocarcinidae (1ère partie)

On the corals of the Nhatrang bay in Vietnam, eight new species of Hapalocarcinidae have been discovered. This paper gives a brief description.

Les pagures du Viet-Nam. 1. Le genre Diogenes Dana

This first note deals with Diogenes of Group II (cf. Forest, 1952, p. 11). This group contains a number of highly variable species which are, in some cases, poorly characterized due to the vagueness of the original descriptions. Diogenes from Nhatrang belong to four different species but only one of them was identified with a species already described: Diogenes avarus Heller. The other three described and figured in this paper, are probably Diogenes Goniochirus, and D. leptocerus, D. serenei sp. nov.

Les pagures du Viet-Nam. II. Sur quelques espèces du Genre Calcinus Dana

The collections of the Oceanographic Institute of Vietnam include several species of hermit crabs of the genus Calcinus Dana. Three of keys were studied by Fize and Serene (1955): C. herbsti Man, C. gaimardi H. Milne Edwards and C. latens Randall . The seventy specimens belong to four species. The first one, C. minutus Buytendijk, was described by Indonesia in 1937; the second one, represented by a single small specimen is related to C. spicatus Forest. Finally, two other are Calcinus vachonis sp. November and Colcinus pulcher sp. nov.

Contribution à l'étude des algues littorales du Vietnam 1: le genre Sargassum

Thirty-six species of Sargassum collected on the sea shore of Vietnam are studied. Four taxa are new: S. Feldmannii, S. Congkinhii, S. piluliferum var. nhatrangensis and S. hemiphyllum forma serrata.
