USES OF THE FISH MUSEUM. 



fellow countrymen, whether interested in sea or river 

 fisheries, but also for gentlemen officially concerned 

 with fish culture in other countries such as Germany, 

 France, Eussia, Australia, America, New Zealand, &c. 



Hoping that this book may be the means of recruit- 

 ing many to the good cause of fish culture, I now take 

 the opportunity of giving an abbreviated catalogue of 

 my museum's contents, trusting that mf readers may 

 be induced to pay it a visit, and learn practically the 

 lessons which I have endeavoured to teach, whether 

 in my official or private capacity. 



Where not otherwise indicated, the numbers denote 

 casts in plaster, every one of which I have made with 

 my own hands, assisted by my secretary, Mr. Searle, 

 and Mr. Edon, the curator of the Museum. In support 

 of my Museum I receive a small annual grant from the 

 Department.
