My only fear in publishing" this list, long as it is, is that it may 

 lead intending contributors to imagine that the above are all that 

 are required. The fact is, that of Erytliraa Centrurium alone are 

 there representatives from each of the five divisions. I have merely 

 indicated those species of which we have no representatives at all, 

 and which cannot be easily procured near Marlborough, but as will 

 be seen from the Table above given, every division is most inade- 

 quately represented, and I can only repeat that I shall gladly enter 

 into correspondence with anyone who is anxious to help in the work. 



In conclusion and as an encouragement to intending contributors, 

 a few of the more interesting points of the collection, as already 

 formed, may be mentioned. 



What are called the Batrachian Banimculi will, I trust, be well
