The synonymy and bibliography of the species formally treated are given in great full- 

 ness, as are the external characters and anatomy, so far as then known ; also their geograph- 

 ical distribution, habits, and products. Many of the figures are original, and those copied 

 have the originals explicitly indicated. Especially noteworthy is the figure of the skull of 

 Balcena mysticetus, from the sp'ecimen in the Berlin Museum. Notwithstanding the large num- 

 ber of nominal species of Cachalots admitted, this treatise is one of much importance. As 

 already said, the bibliographical references are very full. [719.]
