V. — Acquisitions.'^ 

 Mammalia. 



The accessions during the past year have been both numerous 

 and important. Chief among them is the Lataste collection, most 

 generously presented by M. Fernand Lataste. This great collection 

 contains about 1,500 mammals, mostly from Europe, North Africa, 

 and South America ; and it formed the basis of M. Lataste's well- 

 known researches in mammalogy. Of the total number received, 

 about 1,000 specimens, including the types of 21 species and sub- 

 species described by M. Lataste, have now been registered and 

 incorporated in the collection. 



Another important accession is the large collection of heads, 

 horns, stuffed specimens and skins of Big Game, formed by the late 

 Captain F. C. Selous, D.S.O., and presented to the Museum by his 

 widow. Although naturally African game-mammals predominate 

 in this collection, it contains specimens from other regions, including 

 many fine heads of Moose and Caribou from North America. 



Special attention may be drawn to the following acquisitions, 

 arranged in geographical order : — 



Europe.
