Schreiben von Dr. E. Rüppell an Dr. W. Sömmerring über den im Rothen Meere vorkommenden Dugong (Halicore).
Mus. Senckenbergianum 1(2): 99-114. Pl. 6.
–Describes in detail the anatomy of the Red Sea dugong, and gives some notes on its natural history (as told to him by hunters) and the use of its meat, tusks, and hide. Also comments on the hide's use by the ancient Hebrews to cover the Ark of the Covenant, whence he derives the new name Halicore tabernaculi, given in case the species proves to differ from "H. Dugong of the Moluccas" (113). Sömmerring, however, in a foreword (97-98), explains that Rüppell's account was written in the field without access to a library, and that the Red Sea dugong is undoubtedly the same as the species already described in the literature.
