DISTRIBUTION LABELS 



These Labels are highly useful to 

 collectors. They show a map of the 

 world (INIercator's Projection) upon 

 which the distribution of species can be 

 indicated by colouring in red. The 

 localities of the various forms are thus 

 seen at a glance. Space is left for in- 

 serting name of species.

 critical and detailed particulars of the occurrence of the rare species ; while under
