FISH-CULTURE. 



(A n exhaustive list of books on this subject has not been attempted and of the 

 papers to be found in periodicals and the transactions of Societies only the 

 earlier and more important have been included. With very few exceptions 

 the works recorded are in the British Museum Library, in the Denison 

 Collection or in the possession of the Editor. The old writers on fish-ponds 

 of the pre-scientific era are contained in our main or angling list, but refer- 

 ences to them are here inserted.)
