EXTRACTS FROM REVIEWS. 



'The authors of this catalogue may take a pride in their work, which has evidently been 

 executed with most conscientious care. They have given a short introductory exposition of the 

 principles by which they have been guided, and an excellent brief sketch of the phy.^ical aspects 

 of Yorkshire, and the summary of the results of their investigation of its Vertebrata. The little 

 book is a most valuable contribution to British zoological literature.' — Auu. <£r= Mag. Nat. Hist. 



'The work is an excellent one of its kind.' — Athencrinn.
