MARINE TOXINS AND VENOMOUS AND POISONOUS MARINE ANIMALS

sufficient to say at this time that awaiting such a development the
physiopharmacologist has a good deal of work yet to keep him occupied.
IX. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Some of the data presented in this contribution have not heretofore
been reported. They are taken from a long term study on marine
toxins supported by contract NONR 2571(00) from the U.S.N. Office of
Naval Research. We are indebted to that Office for permitting us to
include these data, in this review.
I wish to express my appreciation to the following persons, all of
whom have given freely of their advice during the preparation of the
manuscript: Dr. P. R. Saunders, Dr. L. H. Hyman, Dr. C. Hand,
Dr. D. Nicols, Dr. R. F. Nigrelli, Dr. R. Endean, Dr. E. J. Schantz,
Dr. P. Helfrich, Mr. W. Fry, Dr. C. Alender, Dr. J. Dubnoff, Dr.
E. A. Robson and Dr. F. S. Russell. I am also indebted to Cornell
Maritime Press for their kindness in permitting me to reproduce some
of the figures used in this article and noted as (Halstead, 1959).
Lastly, I wish to express my appreciation to my good friend and
colleague, Dr. Bruce W. Halstead, who following the loss of my own file
on the Dinoflagallata and their toxins, kindly made available his
manuscript and references for the chapter on Protozoa from his forthcoming book, “Poisonous and Venomous Marine Animals of the
World ”
