Overview

EAN: 11734337

Tuhinga 16, 2005, contains nine articles about animals, plants, museum exhibitions, and politics in science. Five articles deal with a variety of species: ectoparasites from New Zealand birds, descriptions of scales from triplefin fishes, the rediscovery of important fossil moa bones in the London Natural History Museum, Te Papa's collection of invertebrate type specimens, and a study of a large group of New Zealand lichens. Two articles examine and discuss recent successful exhibitions held at Te Papa, while another report on the dealings of a 19th Century curios dealer, and another delves into the affairs of New Zealand’s colonial men of science.
