GEOLOGY AND PALAEONTOLOGY, 1888. 



The recent sudden death of iMr. S. A. Adamson, F.Ci.S., one of 

 whose last pieces of work was the preparation for press of the 

 present instalment of bibliography (the titles being supplied partly 

 by himself and partly by Mr. A. Harker, M.A., F.G.S.), deprives the 

 'Naturalist' of an able and willing coadjutor, whose loss will be very 

 much felt, and whose place will not easily be filled up. 



The Editors will be glad if some of their geological readers would 

 volunteer to assist Mr. Harker in future instalments by undertaking 

 to furnish titles from such specified periodical literature as may be 

 most convenient. Supposing a Manchester or Liverpool resident 

 were to undertake to examine the Lancashire periodicals and litera- 

 ture, and some Yorkshire resident would undertake the same task 

 for the periodicals of that county, the assistance would be most useful 

 and acceptable.
