The present series, entitled "Smithsonian Miscellaneous Collections", is intended to embrace all the octavo publications of the Institution, except the Annual Report. Its scope is not limited, and the volumes thus far issued relate to nearly every branch of science. Among these various subjects zoology, bibliography, geology, mineralogy, anthropology, and astrophysics have predominated.

The Institution also publishes a quarto series entitled "Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge". It consists of memoirs based on extended original investigations, which have resulted in important additions to knowledge.

C. G. Abbot,
Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution.
