Excerpt from The Development of Admetus Pumilio Koch: A Contribution to the Embryology of the Pedipalpi I Began my investigations of the development of Admetus pumilio in November 1899. During the previous year I had been studying the development of spiders under Prof. A. Goette, in Strassburg. Through the kindness of Prof. R.Burckhardt I received materials to examine, which he had obtained from Dr. Goeldi in Para. These materials consisted of two females of Admetus pumilio each of which carried a batch of eggs, which will be described under Stages II and V. In January, 1900, I received two further batches of eggs, this time through the kindness of Dr. G.Hagmann, also in Para, unfortunately only one of these batches was of use, from it I procured Stages I, II, and IV, the other had been deserted by the mother animal, as Dr. Hagmann stated. Cuts through embryos coming from this batch only show an inner mass of yolk surrounded by a thick and dense layer of bacilli. I was not able to procure any further material. At this place I must also express my thanks to Prof. F.Zschokke, Director of the Zoological Institute of the University of Basle, in whose laboratory this paper was prepared, and to Prof. R.Burckhardt, to whom I am much indebted for the help he rendered me during my studies, and more especially whilst working at this paper. I must also express thanks publicly to Dr. Goeldi and Dr. Hagmann for having procured me the materials, and to my friend arid fellow-student Oskar Huber, for some of the drawings given in this paper.
