 note = {An original manuscript titled“ Hoya-ko"( On ascidians), with an introduction dated 1825( late Edo Period),written by Mr.Ansho Hei,a medical practitioner in the Tokushima clan in Japan,was identified among 4 similar manuscripts( 3 being transcribed) deposited in the Tokyo National Museum (the original therein),the Dai-tokyu Memorial Library of the Gotoh Museum,the Toyo Bunko,and the National Diet Library.The manuscript was of particular interest because it had resulted from the author's own experience of handling living ascidians,as well as including some criticism of previous Japanese literature,both practices being very unusual among pre-modern naturalists.A modern Japanese translation of the manuscript is presented with detailed explanatory notes, together with some original drawings( mainly of external appearance and showing natural coloration),which indicate how ascidians were recognized by pre-modern naturalists. The original manuscript likely influenced the later work“ Atan Sanshi"( Biota and natural products in Awa and Awaji regions), prepared by the clan and its successors up to the early Meiji Period.},
