This work (Bulletin No. 51) is one of a series of papers intended to illustrate the collections belonging to or placed under the charge of the Smithsonian Institution and deposited in the United States National Museum.

The publications of the National Museum consist of two series— the Bulletin and the Proceedings.

The Bulletin, publication of which was commenced in 1875, is a series of elaborate papers issued separately and based for the most part upon collections in the National Museum. They are nionographic in scope and are devoted principally to the discussion of large zoolog- ical groups, bibliographies of eminent naturalists, reports of expedi- tions, etc. The bulletins, issued onty as volumes with one exception, are of octavo size, although a quarto form, known as the Special Bul- letin, has been adopted in a few instances in which a larger page was deemed indispensable.

The Proceedings (octavo), the first volume of which was issued in L878, are intended primarily as a medium of publication for newly acquired facts in biology, anthropology, and geology, descriptions of new forms of animals and plants, discussions of nomenclature, etc. A volume of about 1,000 pages is issued annually for distribution to , libraries, while a limited edition of each paper in the volume is printed and distributed in pamphlet form in advance.

In addition, there are printed each year in the second volume of the Smithsonian Report (known as the Report of the National Museum) papers, chiefly of an ethnological character, describing collections in the National Museum.

Papers intended for publication by the National Museum are visually referred to an advisory committee, composed as follows: Frederick W. True (chairman), William H. Holmes, George P. Merrill, James E. Benedict, Otis T. Mason, Leonhard Stejneger, Lester F. Ward, and Marcus Benjamin (editor).

PREFACE.

The purpose of this bulletin is to present a list, with index to titles, of the publications of the U. S. National Museum, which consist of an annual Report, an annual volume of Proceedings, Bulletins, Special Bulletins, and Circulars.

The Report constitutes the second volume of the Smithsonian Report, and the first one thus issued is for the year 1884. A certain number of these volumes is assigned to the Museum for distribution to libra- ries, to correspondents, and to contributors to the collections, while a considerable part of the edition is distributed by members of Congress. The special papers in these volumes, for the most part describing ethnological collections in the National Museum, are furnished free to those interested.

The series of Proceedings of the National Museum began in 1878, and 23 volumes, containing 1,240 separate papers, have been published. These papers, which are technical, describe, or are based wholly or in part upon, material in the Museum. The volumes are sent only to libraries, while the separate papers are furnished without charge to specialists and others engaged in scientific work.

The first number of the Bulletin was issued in 1875. Of the latest in the series, No. 50 (The Birds of North and Middle America), only the first volume, relating to the Fringillidas, has been issued. The bulletins are intended principally for libraries, but are also given to known specialists working on the groups to which they relate.

Special Bulletins, in quarto, have been issued at irregular intervals, but this form has been used only where a size larger than octavo was deemed especiall}' desirable. The last one published (No. IV) is the first volume of a monograph of the American Hydroids, and relates to the group Plumularidae.

The primary object of the issuance of the series of Circulars was to bring to immediate notice urgent wants of the Museum, or to promul- gate special information with the least possible delay. The first circu- lar was published in 1881, and at the time when the present list was sent to the Printing Office this series contained fifty numbers.

None of the above-mentioned publications are sold by the Museum, but when the Museum can not supply them, persons desiring to pur- chase are advised to write to the Superintendent of Documents, Union Building, Washington, D. C.

Occasionally the Museum exchanges its publications for desirable specimens.

This was the first report on the operations of the National Museum printed under a

separate cover. The reports of the Museum for 1881, 1882, and 1883, were first printed

in the reports of the Institution for those years, and were afterwards issued in pamphlet

form. The Museum Report for 1884 was the first one to occupy a separate volume of the

Smithsonian Report, and to be accompanied by papers based upon the collections.
