(This paper, presented at a meeting of the California 
Academy of Sciences, was in effect privately printed 
because publication of the regular Academy Proceed¬ 
ings had been suspended in 1877 due to the lack of 
funds for publication. The last volume of series 1 of the 
Proceedings, vol. 7, part 1, contains only papers pre¬ 
sented at meetings during 1876. Following suspension 
of publication of the Proceedings in 1877, that is after 
publication of vol. 7, part 1, a series of privately printed 
papers ensued. They are often cited as if they had been 
published in the Proceedings of the California Academy 
of Sciences but, in fact, they are “From the Proceed¬ 
ings, ” meaning that they are from the proceedings of the 
meeting(s) of the Academy, i.e., they had been present¬ 
ed at a meeting. In 1884, a Bulletin was begun by the 
Academy, but it was short-lived and publication ceased 
in 1887 when publication of series 2 of the Proceedings 
was begun in December 1887.)
