In the Author Catalogue the numbers placed within square brackets

 indicate the scope of each paper indexed. The meaning of these 

 numbers will at once be found by reference to the Schedule. 



In case the abbreviated titles of Journals are not understood, a key 

 to these is provided at the end of the volume. 



Topographical Symbols. 



In this volume geographical position is denoted by one or two letters 

 printed in italics. The meaning of these symbols will be found in the 

 system of Topographical Classification \vhich is printed in four languages 

 and placed between the Schedules and the Author Catalogue. Thus df 

 means " occurrins^ in France " or " with reference to Franco."
