 by the present generation. 



In the arrangement of the recent Amphibia and Reptiles I

 E. Weldon I ai fl indebted for numerous criticisms of the whole 

 plan of this work. It must, however, be distinctly understood 

 that neither 'of my friends can in any way be held responsible 

 for any mistakes or errors of judgment which may be found in 

 this Classi ncation of Vertebrata.
