Book excerpt: Excerpt from Supplementary Appendix to Travels Amongst the Great Andes of the Equator We accordingly pushed rapidly across the lower country both in going to and returning from the interior 51 and only acquired, whilst passing through it, such objects as came readily to hand. In respect to the interior, it should be noted (1) that the exigencies of travel often caused us to traverse considerable stretches of country without attempting to collect at all 5 (2) that, at such places as we stopped at, our researches never even approached an exhaustive character and (3) that the more minute species were rejected, owing to the known dith culty of inducing specialists to undertake their examination. Bearing these various points in mind, it appears to me improbable that in the interior (say, in the areas more elevated than 8000 feet) we obtained as much as one-tenth of the number of species which might have been collected by a person who could have given his whole time and atten tion to zoological research.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travels Amongst the Great Andes, of the Equator The most opposite statements and opinions have been advanced concerning this matter. The extremes range from saying that fatal results may occur, and have occurred, from some obscure cause, at comparatively moderate elevations, down to that no effects whatever have been experienced at the greatest heights which have been attained. Allegations of the latter class may be set aside for the present, for the evidence is overwhelming that, from 14 000 feet above the level of the sea and upwards, serious inconveniences have occurred; that prostration (amounting in the more extreme cases to incapacitation) has been experienced; and that, in some instances, perhaps, even death has resulted through some cause which operates at great elevations.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1891 edition. Excerpt: ... INTRODUCTION. By H. W. Bates, F.R.S. The total number of species of Insecta and Arachnida collected by Mr. Whymger during his journey in Ecuador amounts to about one thousand. Unfortunately it has been found impossible to induce specialists to work up the whole of the groups for the purpose of the present volume; several important families and whole orders remain unnamed, and arc therefore for the present unavailable in aiding us to form some idea of the nature and relations of the Fauna of the Equatorial Andes. A rough estimate has been made of the numbers of species in the missing groups. Thus Baron von Osten Sacken, on looking over the Diptera, considered them to number about 100; Mr. Druce, who partially determined the Moths (Lepidoptera Heterocera), found 44 species; the Hymenoptera (exclusive of the Ants) appear to be scarcely less numerous than the Diptera, and the Spiders comprise not fewer than 200 species. The Orders and Families of the Insecta class enumerated or described in this Supplementary Appendix comprise 359 species. Of these no fewer than 131 are new to science, and many of them are so distinct that 14 new genera have had to be instituted for their reception. So much interest attaches to the nature of the Insect Fauna of high altitudes in the Equatorial zone of the Andes, and to its relations to the Faunas of Chili and Temperate zones of North America and Europe, that it would be undesirable to let the occasion pass of analysing Mr. Whymper's collection with this view, notwithstanding that B so large a portion must be left out of the examination. The few remarks I have to make must further be restricted almost exclusively to the Coleoptera. There is the less disadvantage in this that the collections made by Mr....
