Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Transactions of the Royal Canadian Institute, Vol. 11
The collection contains 132 distinct forms to which possibly a dozen more might be added: of these, 48 are ascribed to known species, and 31 are new to science. The remaining 53 species are described, and in some cases figured, but their preservation does not justify specific names, although many of them are probably new. An analysis of the collection is given on the following page.
