Young,” and that Professor Louis Agassiz, at his laboratory 
in Charleston harbor, had had specimens. McCrady was, I

Macon, North Carolina, and Vicinity " (Nos. 1-3), Proc. Acad. 
Nat. Sci. Phila., 1871, 1877. The vertebrate lists are much 
more complete than the invertebrate. There are recorded 
24 mammals, 133 birds, 27 reptiles, 6 amphibia, 111 fishes. 
Of the invertebrates recorded the only list approaching com-

Many of the Beaufort forms have been first described by 
some of the older naturalists, whose collections were made 
farther south, along the coasts of South Carolina, Georgia, and 
Florida. Among such may be especially mentioned Catesby!,
