more closely connected with the work of the Perthshire Society. 

 The Botanical papers follow ; and after them come the Zoological, 

 divided under the different groups of animals, from the Vertebrata 

 downwards. Under each division or head those papers that relate 

 to Perthshire are placed first, then those that relate to other localities 

 in Scotland, beginning with the southern localities ; and papers on 

 foreign examples bring up the rear. A few papers are added of a 

 popular kind, as well as three obituaries of Scottish naturalists known 

 to be by him. A reference has been added to the place of publica- 

 tion of each article, and the number of pages is stated as an indica- 

 tion of its extent. In a few cases a brief indication has been added 

 of the nature of the papers. 



The following contractions have been employed in the names 

 of the journals referred to: Ann. S.N.H. = "Annals of Scottish 

 Natural History"; E.B. S. Tr. = " Edinburgh Botanical Society's 

 Transactions " ; E.M.M. = " Entomologist's Monthly Magazine " ; 

 Ent. = " Entomologist "; E. W.I. = " Entomologist's Weekly Intelli- 

 gencer " ; J.B. = " Journal of Botany " ; Pres, Addr. = " Presidential 

 Addresses to the Perthshire Society of Natural Science," published 

 in the P.P.S. = " Proceedings of the Perthshire Society of Natural 

 Science"; Tr.P.S. " Transactions " of the same Society. The 

 designations of any other journals referred to are intelligible without 

 explanation in the forms in which they stand in the list. The 

 references are in many cases given only to the year of issue, as 

 the most convenient (and sufficient) mode, but where it appeared 

 desirable the volume also has been quoted. 



I have to offer my thanks to Mr. H. Coates and to Mr. Frank 

 H. White for assistance in the compilation of this list.
