THE NATURALIST is the oldest Scientific Periodical in the British Isles, 

 dating - back to 1833. It has thus existed for well upwards of 

 70 years — a fact that speaks convincingly of the continued interest 

 and practical utility which have invariably characterised its pages. 



THE NATURALIST to-day numbers amongst its contributors many 

 leading scientific writers, whose original contributions record 

 the latest results of their work. The Magazine is specially 

 devoted to papers and notes bearing upon Natural History, 

 Geology, and Prehistoric Archaeology. Every effort is also 

 made to ensure the journal being of the greatest value to Field 

 Naturalists, no matter in which branch of Natural History they 

 may be interested. 



THE NATURALIST arrangements for the near future provide for many 

 first-rate articles by recognised authorities^ The letterpress, as 

 heretofore, will be interspersed with ' numerous illustrations, 

 and in addition will be accompanied by a number of high-class 

 plates of special value to Naturalists, Geologists, and Antiquaries.
