Zombori, L.: Zoological collectings by the Hungarian Natural History Museum in Korea. 110. A report on the collecting of the sixteenth expedition

words on the history of the Hungarian Natural History Museum and on the various Korean zoological materials deposited in there. The lecture tour lasted for three weeks. I returned from Seoul on the 16th November via Bangkok, Singapore and Copenhagen and reached Budapest on the 18th. Much of my time in South Korea was taken up by travelling, preparing and lecturing. However, owing to the understanding of my hosts I also had some spare time. This was spent mostly by visiting various localities with a view to see and select future collecting sites. At some of these excursions I was able to make limited collectings. Subsequently, I give a list of these localities. The fifteenth expedition closed its list of localities with the number 1596.
