Preface. vii 



Mr. J. H. Gurney, Mr. J. E. Griffith, Rev. H. A. 

 Macpherson, &c. &c., for the use of letters and other 

 valuable information. 



In conclusion, let me add that if the perusal of 

 this Memoir recalls the warm and never-forgotten 

 friendships of other days, sunny hours spent in kin- 

 dred pursuits, and the painstaking and unselfish 

 assistance given to every young Naturalist, my aim 

 in publishing it will have been accomplished, namely, 

 to give pleasure to my dearest Brother's many 

 friends.
