LIST OF THE PUBLICATIONS 
OF THE 
ZOOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF LONDON. 
Tue scientific publications of the Zoological Society of London 
are of two kinds—“ Proceedings,” published in an octavo 
form, and “ Transactions,” in quarto. 
According to the present arrangements, the “‘ Proceedings” 
contain not only notices of all business transacted at the scien- 
tific meetings, but also all the ‘papers read at such meetings 
and recommended to be published in the “‘ Proceedings ”’ by 
the Committee of Publication. A large number of coloured 
plates and engravings are attached to each annual volume of 
the “ Proceedings,” to illustrate the new or otherwise remark- 
able species of animals describedin them. Amongst such 
illustrations, figures of the new or rare species acquired in a 
living state for the Society’s Gardens are often given. 
The “ Proceedings” for each year are issued in four parts, 
on the first of the months of June, August, October, and 
April, the part published in April completing the volume for 
the preceding year. 
The ‘‘ Transactions”? contain such of the more important 
communications made to the scientific meetings of the Society 
as, on account of the nature of the plates required to illustrate 
them, are better adapted for publication in the quarto form. 
They are issued at irregular intervals. 
Fellows and Corresponding Members, upon payment of 
a Subscription of One Guinea before the day of the Anni- 
versary Meeting in each year, are entitled to receive all the 
Society’s Publications for the year. They are likewise 
entitled to purchase the Publications of the Society at 25 per 
cent. less than the price charged for them to the Public. A 
further reduction of 25 per cent. is made upon purchases of 
Publications issued prior to 1871, if they exceed the value of 
five pounds. 
Fellows also have the privilege of subscribing to the 
Annual Volume of the Zoological Record for a sum of £1 
(which includes delivery in the United Kingdom only), 
payable on the Ist July in each year; but this privilege 
is forfeited unless the subscription be paid before the Ist of 
December following. 
The following is a complete list of the publications of 
the Society already issued. They may be obtained at 
the Society’s Office (3 Hanover Square, W.), at Messrs. 
Longmans’, the Society’s publishers (Paternoster Row, E.C.), 
or through any bookseller.
