Importante raccolta di studi scientifici di biologia marina, realizzati sotto la direzione del Principe Alberto I di Monaco (Parigi, 1848 – Parigi, 1922). Alberto I, ancora molto giovane, ad appena ventidue anni, iniziò a coltivare la passione per le scienze naturali e in particolare per l'oceanografia. Si interessò ai nuovi strumenti che la tecnica metteva a disposizione per lo studio dei fondali marini, e con il sostegno di importanti scienziati compì studi oceanografici, realizzò mappe e carte nautiche. A lui si deve la fondazione di quello che sarebbe divenuto l'”Istituto Oceanografico” di Monaco, che include oggi un acquario, un museo e una biblioteca. Disponiamo di questo fascicolo VIII relativo a Epizoanthus, Caryophillia, Deltocyathus, Flabellum, Stephanotrochus, Balanophyllia.
