Tomes (Robert Fisher), oh. ca. 1906 
This writer, the second son of John Tomes, of Weston, 
who resided at South Littleton, Evesham, was more 
interested in mammalia than in ornithology, and in the 
former department he assisted the late Professor Bell 
with the second edition of his History of British Quadrupeds 
(1874). He wrote the bird sections for two of the Victoria 
Histories , that on the county of Worcestershire comprising a 
good annotated list of 207 species, while that on the county 
of Warwick contains 205 species. He was a Fellow of the 
Geological Society and a corresponding member of the 
Zoological Society; he resigned from the B.O.Lh in 1866.
