THE PUBLICATIONS OF THE ZOOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF LONDON. 
Tue scientific publications of the Zoological Society of London are of two kinds—“ Proceedings,” 
published in an octavo form, and “ Transactions,” in quarto. 
According to the present arrangements, the “ Proceedings” contain not only notices of all busi- 
ness transacted at the scientific meetings, but also all the papers read at such meetings and recom- 
mended to be published in the “ Proceedings ” by the Committee of Publication. A large number 
of coloured plates and engravings are issued in the “Proceedings,” to illustrate the new or 
otherwise remarkable species of animals described in them. Among such illustrations, figures 
of the new or rare species acquired in a living state for the Society’s Gardens are often given. 
The “Proceedings”? for each year are issued in four parts, in the months of March, June, 
September, and December. From January 1901 they have been issued as two half-yearly volumes, 
indexed separately. The pagination is now consecutive throughout the issue for the year, so that 
the year and page give the complete reference. 
An “Abstract of the Proceedings ” is published by the Society on the Tuesday following the 
date of Meeting to which it refers. Itis issued along with the “ Proceedings,” free of extra charge, 
to all Fellows who subscribe to the Publications, but it may be obtained on the day of publication at 
the price of Sixpence, or, if desired, sent post free for the sum of Six Shillings per annum, payable 
in advance, 
The “ Transactions ”’ contain such of the communications made to the scientific meetings of the 
Society as, on account of the nature of the plates required to illustrate them, are better adapted 
for publication in the quarto form. They are issued at irregular intervals. 
Fellows and Corresponding Members, upon payment of a Subscription of £1 1s. before the day of 
the Anniversary Meeting in each year, are entitled to receive the Society’s Publications for the 
year. They are likewise entitled to purchase the Publications of the Society at 25 per cent. less 
than the price charged for them to the Public. A further reduction of 25 per cent. is made upon — 
purchases of Publications issued prior to 1881, if they exceed the value of five pounds. 
Fellows also have the privilege of subscribing to the Annual Volume of the ‘ Zoological Record? 
or asum of £1 10s. (which includes delivery), payable on the 1st July in each year; but this 
privilege is forfeited unless the subscription be paid before the 1st December in each year, 
Such of these publications as are in stock may be obtained at the Society’s Office (Regent’s 
Park, London, N.W.), at Messrs, Longmans’, the Society’s publishers (Paternoster Row, E.C.), or 
through any bookseller.
