ZOOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF LONDON. 



LIST OF PUBLICATIONS. 



The 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 issued in the volumes of the 

 " Proceedings," to illustrate the new or otherwise remark- 

 able species of animals described therein. Amongst such 

 illustrations, figures of the new or rare species acquired in a 

 living state for the Societj^'s Gardens are often given. 



The " Proceedings " for each year are issued in four 

 parts, paged consecutively, in the months of March, June, 

 September, and December. From January 1901 they have 

 been issued as two half-yearly volumes, indexed separately. " 



An " Abstract of the Proceedings "" is published by the 

 Society on the Tuesday following the date of Meeting to 

 which it refers. It is issued along with the " Proceedings," 

 free of extra charge, to all Fellows who subscribe to the 

 Publications, but it may be obtained on the day of publi- 

 cation at the price of Sixpence, or, if desired, sent post free 

 for the sum of Six Shillings per annum, payable in advance. 

 The " Transactions " contain such of the 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 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 1881, 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 305. 

 (which includes cost of delivery), payable on the 1st. of July 

 in each year ; but this privilege is forfeited unless the 

 subscription be paid before the 1st. of December following. 



The following is a complete list of the publications of the 

 Society already issued.
