The complete work is not covered by these notices, nor is the exact 
date of publication of the numbers of the periodicals given. Wishing 
to get more accurate data I sent to Mr. C. E. Faxon, one of the illus- 
trators, the information I had found and asked if he could add to it. 
Fortunately he had kept his copy in the original covers and had 
recorded on each part the date on which it was received by him. A 
few days before his death he very kindly sent the following compilation 
to me with the permission to use it in this article. 
Fascicles. Pages and plates. Received by Mr. Faxon.

pp. I-XXXI. 273-285. “Rec’d several weeks later.” 
Although these dates of receipt were doubtless in each case from 
one to several days later than those of actual issue, the source of the 
information was so trustworthy and the approximation to the times 
of publication obviously so close, that it seems well worth while to 
place the data on published record.
