A collection of 15 scientific papers on the toxins and pharmacologically active substances produced by marine animals, and the physiological effects of environmental pollutants on marine organisms. Contributions include studies of shark-repelling ichthyotoxins secreted by soles of the genus Pardachirus, venoms of marine molluscs, nematocyst discharge in jellyfish and sea anemones, and the effects of heavy metals, hydrocarbons and other pollutants on fish and mussels. An interesting contribution to the early development of marine toxicology, ecotoxicology and marine natural-products research.
