The historical introduction traces briefly the history of the subject from the time of Aris- 

 totle to date, with copious references to the literature in foot-notes. 



Theil I gives a carefully prepared synopsis of the species, with brief diagnoses, the prin- 

 cipal synonymy, and references to the more important works relating to the species. Theil 

 II is devoted to a general account of the anatomy of the Sirenians and Cetaceans, largely 

 from original investigation. The eight plates are based on material studied by the au- 

 thor. [920.]
