EDITORIAL NOTE. 



We had hoped to have the collections made on the Abor 

 Expedition worked out completely, and to have published a final 

 summary with figures of characteristic animals. The war, however, 

 interrupted the progress of the work, which has continued for 

 10 years. As there seems little prospect of completing it now and 

 as the delay is causing serious bibliographical inconvenience owing 

 to the lack of an index to the volume, we have decided to bring it to 

 a close. At some future date it may be utilised in a general study 

 of the Himalayan fauna.
