NOTICE 



The present list completes the European portion of the series intended to show 

 what works have been received in the way of exchange by the Smithsonian Insti- 

 tution, and includes likewise all transactions of learned societies and periodicals 

 which have in any way been added to its library. Part first was published in Vol. 

 VII. of Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge, and embraced the countries for 

 which Dr. Fliigel acted as agent, namely, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Russia, 

 Holland, Germany, Switzerland, and Belgium. The present or second part includes 

 France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and 

 Ireland, the agents for which countries are Hector Bossange, Paris, and Henry 

 Stevens, London. 



The Smithsonian Institution, desirous of collecting together all published trans- 

 actions of societies and scientific periodicals, will be happy to receive from its 

 correspondents any additions to these lists, especially when such will serve to 



complete series already in its possession.

Secretary S. I.
