 tain illustrations of all the known species of this Family, both existing and extinct. 



The drawings have been prepared by Mr. Wolf, Avhose name is a sufficient 

 guarantee for their fidelity. Their value will be enhanced from the fact that this 

 Work will be the last to contain a complete series of Plates from the pencil of this 

 artist. This Work will be issued in Parts, each to contain four Plates, coloured 

 by hand ; and it is expected that about twelve Parts will complete the publica- 

 tion. The size is Royal Folio, One hundred and fifty copies only will be printed ; 

 and the Drawings will be erased from the stones as soon as this number is reached. 



The price of each part (to Subscribers only) will be Two Pounds Ten Shil- 

 lings, PAYABLE ON DELIVERY ; and it is expected that a subscription will be 

 continued until the Work is complete. 



All communications for the Work to be addressed to Mr, R. H. Porter, 

 () Tenterden Street, Hanover Square, London, W., by whom Subscriptions will
