THE IRISH NATURALIST, VOLS. I. -XXV. 
AUTHOR INDEX. 
BY ALICE SCHARFF. 
The want of comprehensive Indexes to the growing number 
of volumes of the Irish Naturalist has been felt for some time. 
In 191 1 the late R. M. Barrington published at his own expense 
an Index to vols, i.-xviii., compiled by cutting up and pasting 
down in alphabetical order the annual indexes issued with each 
volume. These annual indexes displayed some inequality of 
treatment, and this, combined with the accretion of seven 
volumes more, suggested the compilation of a general index 
to include the matter published during the first quarter- 
century of the Irish Naturalist' s existence. In consultation 
with the Editors, it was decided to compile an Index of Authors, 
funds not permitting of the printing of the much larger amount 
of matter that would have been involved had subjects also 
been included. As regards arrangement, etc., the Index explains 
itself ; it may be pointed out that in the case of reports of 
meeting of Societies, the Society stands as the author, except 
in cases where an abstract of a paper read contains definite 
information ; then an entry is made also under the reader's 
name. I hope that the Index will prove useful to workers 
at Irish natural history.
