This book was released on 2018-09-08 with total page 840 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Proceedings of the United States National Museum, 1885, Vol. 8 The extension of the scope of the National Museum during the past few years, and the activity of the collectors employed in its interest have caused a great increase in the amount of material in its possession. Many of the objects gathered are of a novel and important character, and serve to throw a new light upon the study of nature' and of man. The importance to science of prompt publication of descriptions of this material led to the establishment, in 1878, of the present series of publications, entitled Proceedings of the United States National Museum, the distinguishing peculiarity of which is that the articles are published in signatures as soon as matter sufficient to fill sixteen pages has been obtained and printed. The date of publication being plainly expressed in each signature, the ready settlement of questions of priority is assured.
