possible number of duplicates which the rest of the series might 
yield when eventually worked up. With the receipt this year of 
approximately 100,000 specimens of Philippine fishes this method 
of arriving at a fair estimate of the number of duplicates available 
for distribution proved utterly inadequate. It has therefore been 
considered the better plan only to list the number of duplicates 
actually segregated. It may be further noted that the figures for the 
division of plants are exclusive of the lower cryptogams. In the 
following table the figures in parentheses indicate the number of 
duplicates included in the total:
