Object remarks:
Locality remarks: The fish species collected under this station are very unlikely to be found near Cape Town; the label may be altogether wrong /EJS, 1993. Locality is likely until an exotic species is identified. Year of collecting unknown. Probably when Hummel participated as a doctor on Norwegian whalers in 1959, 1960, and 1962 - possibly 1962 /EIÅ, 2001.
