The BONE of the ANTILOPES HORN; which is solid, and also spiral or twisted, but without Rings. Given by Henry Whistler Esq;.

Three other SKULS about the same bigness. One whereof, given by Henry Whistler Esq;.

Another GREY GULL, whereof the Rump, Tail, and upper part of the Wings are very white. Given by Henry Whistler Esq;.

The SKULL of a SEAL. Given by Henry Whistler Esq;. The Teeth are shaped somewhat like a Dogs. The tops of them all are flat, being doubtless filed off. The processus of the Os Frontis which makes up the Orbit of the Eye in Land-Animals, is here wanting; and the said Bone pinched up much more narrowly: Both to make room, as it should seem, for a very large Eye. The passage into the Ears stands very oddly. In Dogs, Cats, and most other Land-Animals, forward and outwardly. But here it stands just oppositely, sc. behind and inwardly.

The MOLUCCA-CRAB. Cancer Molucensis. The best figure hereof is given by Besler, who alone shews the Eyes; yet not so clearly as could be wished. Not ill described by Joh. de Læt. That which Clusius makes to be the fore part, he makes the hinder: and Wormius doth the like; and saith, it is plain, from the position of the Legs; With both whom I agree. And to what Wormius saith, I also add, the position of the Eyes; for from Clusius's Description, it would follow, that they stood in the hinder part of the Crab. Here are eight or nine of them; the entirest and largest, given by Henry Whistler Esq;.

A West-Indian TARGET. Given by H. Whistler Esq;.

The FAN of an Indian King. Given by H. Whistler Esq;. Made chiefly of the Feathers of Peacocks Tailes; composed into a round Form. Bound altogether with a circular Rim, above a foot over, consisting of the parts of certain Plants like split Cane. The middle strengthen'd and divided into squares with cross Bars, made of the same materials, and some of them deyed Red. The bottom of each Square over-laid with Moscovy-Glass. And in the middle of each, a knot of white Feathers, like the Flower of a Jacynth.
