Introduction

James Peter Hill (1873 - 1954)

| Ambrosius Hubrecht

Dr Peter Giere (curator of the embryological collection)

James Peter Hill (1873 - 1954) University of Edinburgh, Royal College of Science in London, and demonstrator in Sydney, Australia. His extensive embryo collection was transferred and added to the Hubrecht Collection in 1966 from the University College London by his daughter Catherine Kirkham Jones. Both collections have subsequently been transferred to Embryological Collection, Museum für Naturkunde, Leibniz Institute for Research on Evolution and Biodiversity.

"By far the largest addition to the Hubrecht Collection was the material collected by James Peter Hill (1873-1954). This consists of about 3,000 bottles of material in alcohol 28,000 microscope slides specimens blocked out in wax; detailed field and laboratory notebooks, and other documentation; and photographs, including pairs of stereomicrographs of platypus and other embryos, to be viewed with the special pair of viewing glasses which survive in the collection."^[1]

Stage 8 Embryo

"Dobbin" Embryo

Further descriptions of the "Dobbin" Embryo characterised as (Carnegie Stage 8) can be found in the following papers:

Hill JP. and Florian J. The development of head-process and prochordal plate in man (1931) J Anat. 65(2): 242-6. PMID 17104317

Hill JP. and Florian J. A young human embryo (embryo dobbin) with head-process and prochordal plate. (1931) Phil. Tran. Roy. Soc. London B, 219: 443-486.

Hill JP. and Florian J. Further note on the pro-chordal plate in man. (1931) J. Anat., 46: 46-47. PMID 17104356

Note the rostral end of notochordal process was at first mistaken for prechordal plate, see published correction.
