PREFACE. 



THIS List, which has been drawn up, under my superin- 
tendence, by Mr. Louis Fraser, contained, as originally pre- 
pared, only the Vertebrated animals living in the Gardens on 
the 31st of December last, on which day it has been the 
practice for some years to take an accurate census of the 
Society's stock. The Council having determined to print it, 
for the use of the Fellows and other persons who take an 
interest in the Collection, I have carefully revised the whole, 
and endeavoured to make it as complete as possible by adding 
the species received since the beginning of the year. A living 
collection being liable to perpetual change, it cannot, of course, 
be expected that a list of this sort can be absolutely correct 
at any given moment; but I believe that the errors and 
omissions, as it at present stands, are not very numerous. 

It will be observed that the Society's Collection, which is 
supposed to contain the most extensive series of living ani- 
mals in existence, embraces about 1450 specimens, illustrating 
188 species of Mammals, 409 of Birds, 62 of Reptiles, and 23 
of Fishes altogether 682 species of Vertebrates. There is, 
besides these, a large series of Invertebrated animals of dif- 
ferent classes, kept in the House devoted to Aquaria, which

varies much in composition and amount. In the " Scientific 
Index" to the List of Animals in the Society's Gardens, 
published in 1844 (which is, I believe, the last classified 
list issued), the number of species exhibited is given as 
335 namely 134 Mammals, 197 Birds, 3 Reptiles, and 
1 Fish. This shows that we have made considerable progress 
since that period. 

I may add, that I am solely responsible for the arrange- 
ment and scientific nomenclature of this list and for the 
correct determination of the species. The difficulty, I may 
almost say the impossibility, in many cases, of ascertaining 
the specific names of living animals with perfect accuracy, is 
too well known to render apologies necessary in several cases 
where I may have failed in effecting this object.
