  between 
  1886 
  and 
  1900, 
  part 
  iv 
  being 
  devoted 
  to 
  " 
  Mollusca 
  

   Marina", 
  and 
  part 
  v 
  with 
  its 
  supplement 
  to 
  " 
  Mollusca 
  Terrestria 
  et 
  

   Fluviatilia". 
  A 
  second 
  edition 
  of 
  the 
  first 
  three 
  parts 
  appeared 
  in 
  

   two 
  numbers 
  in 
  1901 
  and 
  1905. 
  

  

  The 
  wliole 
  collection 
  was 
  transferred 
  by 
  Canon 
  Norman 
  to 
  the 
  

   British 
  Museum 
  (Natural 
  History) 
  during 
  his 
  lifetime, 
  while 
  his 
  

   almost 
  equally 
  noteworthy 
  collection 
  of 
  books 
  and 
  pamphlets 
  "was 
  

   presented 
  to 
  the 
  zoological 
  departments 
  of 
  the 
  University 
  of 
  

   Cambridge. 
  

  

  In 
  these 
  days 
  of 
  specialization 
  tlie 
  hreadtli 
  of 
  Canon 
  Norman's 
  

   interests 
  may 
  well 
  be 
  considered 
  remarkable. 
  Not 
  only 
  was 
  he 
  an 
  

   acknowledged 
  autliority 
  on 
  Bryozoa 
  and 
  Crustacea, 
  but 
  was 
  equallj- 
  

   well 
  acquainted 
  with 
  the 
  Mollusca, 
  Tunicata, 
  Foiaminifera, 
  and 
  

   Sponges. 
  Moreover, 
  he 
  was 
  not 
  merely 
  a 
  describer 
  of 
  new 
  species 
  

   and 
  a 
  discoverer 
  of 
  interesting 
  forms, 
  for 
  liis 
  researches 
  were 
  of 
  real 
  

   value 
  in 
  enlarging 
  our 
  knowledge 
  of 
  the 
  marine 
  fauna 
  in 
  general 
  ; 
  

   while 
  liis 
  definition 
  of 
  tlie 
  " 
  British 
  area 
  in 
  marine 
  zoology", 
  issued 
  

   ill 
  1890, 
  has 
  been 
  generally 
  accepted. 
  For 
  an 
  appreciation 
  of 
  him 
  as 
  

   a 
  man 
  and 
  a 
  naturalist, 
  reference 
  should 
  be 
  made 
  to 
  the 
  article 
  by 
  

   Dr. 
  S. 
  F, 
  Harmer 
  in 
  "Nature" 
  for 
  November 
  1919 
  (p. 
  188), 
  "to 
  

   which 
  we 
  are 
  indebted 
  for 
  the 
  foregoing 
  facts. 
  Norman's 
  services 
  to 
  

   science 
  received 
  a 
  fitting 
  acknowledgment 
  by 
  the 
  bestowal 
  on 
  him 
  

   in 
  1906 
  by 
  the 
  Linnean 
  Society 
  of 
  tlie 
  Linnean 
  Medal.

  became 
  a

  its 
  President 
  in
