  • This, however, is a complete misunderstanding, which shows that Malm cannot have seen, much less read, Neill's paper on the whale stranded near the town of Alloa, but must have quoted at second hand from Eschricht's Schema A, in his sixth essay upon the Cetaceans Vidensk K. D. Selsk. Skrifter, ser. 5 i iii iii or perhaps from the corresponding schema in the same author's ‘Zoolog. Untersuchungen über die nordischen Wallthiere.’
