[After the diagnosis of the branch (" provincio") follow "Classium distinctio" (p. 100), "Classis i. Mamma- 

 lia" (diagnosis, p. 100) ; " Ordinum distribntio" (with diagnosis, pp. 107-110) ; and, lastly, "Index familiarum 

 et subfamiliaruni " (pp. 111-113). A like sequence is adopted for the other classes (Aves, Amphibia, and Pisces). 

 The mammals are divided into 41 families and 75 Bobfamilies, monotypic families being represented by subfam- 

 ilies of equal extent. J

[The diagnoses of the orders and including groups ore repeated from the earlier article (1838) ; but interca- 

 lated therewith, and forming an unbroken series, are the diagnoses of the families and subfamilies, which are 

 the same as those enumerated in the " Index familiarum et suhfamiharum " of the earlier article. The groups 

 Placentaiia and Implacentalia are, however, designated "series" instead of "subclasses", and the Edncabilia 

 and Ineducabiria "subclasses" instead of "sections"; the subfamilies 15 and 16. 23 and 25, and 53 and 54, 

 are severally reversed in position with respect to each other.]
