 Sinologists | Gustaaf Schlegel
Schlegel's naturalist father Hermann (1804-1884), a native of Saxony who had been trained in Vienna, had moved to the Netherlands in 1827 to join the staff of the Leiden Museum.
Also in 1890, Schlegel's student de Groot was appointed to the Chair of Ethnology, further strengthening the Leiden end of the Leiden-Paris axis.
In Schlegel's half, von Zach was later to say, "not a single sentence was translated correctly." von Zach on one occasion referred to Schlegel as a "pathological phenomenon." This is perhaps a little strong, and on the question of whether the mind has a use in Sinology, we consider that the jury is still out.

At the time of its discovery, the species was quite common on South Island and in the southern parts of North Island, where it lived both on the coastal plains and in the mountains.

The Leiden Museum possesses three specimens of the northern subspecies (among which the holotype, the skin used in Schlegel's description) and six of the South Island Piopio.

 Philipp Franz von Siebold Summary
It contained a survey of Japanese literature and, in addition, a Chinese, Japanese and Korean dictionary.
The zoologists Coenraad Temminck (1777-1858), Hermann Schlegel (1804-1884) and Wilhem de Haan (1801-1855) "scientifically" described and documented von Siebold's collection of Japanese animals.
The result led to the Fauna Japonica, a series of monographs published between 1833 and 1850, making the Japanese fauna the best-described non-European fauna - a remarkable feat for von Siebold.
