1903. Prakger. — Work of the Fa7ma and Flora Covimiftee. 129 



One other valuable piece of work carried out hy the Com- 

 mittee must be referred to. In the report which Prof. Haddon 

 made to the Committee in 1893, he advocated the formation 

 of a bibliography of Irish natural history. The Committee 

 took up the idea at once. First R. LI- Praeger and then J. N. 

 Halbert weni employed in preparing a slip-catalogue of all 

 books, papeis, and notes bearing on Irish animals or plants. 

 The work was laborious, but it has now been completed as 

 regards zoology. The records have been copied on standard 

 American catalogue cards, and the whole housed in an oak 

 card-catalogue case in the National Museum. This 

 bibliography has already proved of the greatest service in the 

 course of frequent references^ to the scattered records of Irish 

 zoology. 



In conclusion, it may be useful to list the papers which 

 have been publivShed dealing, in whole or part, with work 

 carried out under the Committee's auspices. In the following 

 list numerous short notes are omitted. The list contains not 

 only reports on work done directly under grants from the 

 Committee, but papers in which records made on expeditions 

 organized or financed b}' the Committee form an}^ consider- 

 able part ; also certain papers, such as Scharff's " List of Irish 

 Cetacea" which have been published in accordance with the 

 Committee's scheme of publishing all the groups of the Irish 

 fauna and flora as opportunity serves.
