NOTICE 



The Classification given in the following pages has been chosen as 

 a convenient manner of throwing the specimens, with their descriptions, 

 together. The large divisions of Cuvier have thus — in the main — been 

 adopted as being more widely known, (although many of them are behind the 

 present state of the Science) while the filling in of genera and species 

 has usually been put, for convenience, in alphabetical form. The Wood- 

 cuts are, some of them, of very mediocre execution, they being intended 

 as simple illustration of a price-list rather than for study, and thus 

 being, for the sake of economy, transfers of figures found in various 

 books. 



For more full information, and for convenience in estimating the 

 space which they will occupy, the two greatest diameters of each 

 specimen are given, except in the cases where these diameters are less 

 than six inches. 



The prices of these casts have been put as low as the present cost of 

 their manufacture will allow. 



Ten per cent, (the simple cost of material employed) should be 

 added to the prices given, for fpackdrSg. When the order is for an 

 amount of §200.00, or over, the packing will not be charged for. 



Payment should in all cases accompany the order. 



Advice will, when desired, be given to those who wish to purchase 

 for a given amount, as to what individual objects in the list best 

 illustrate the kinds which they would obtain.
