Excerpt from Contributions to the Natural History of the Bermudas, Vol. 1: Part I. Geology; Part II. Botany; Part III. Mammals; Part IV. Birds; Part V. Notes on Birds; Part Vi. Reptiles; Part VII. Annelids Dr. T. L. Godet, in his Bermuda, published in 1860, attempted to discuss the zoology of the islands, but his chapters on natural history, shells, and corals give evidence not only of ignorance of but shameful dishonesty in his methods of book-making. The plan of the work, of which the first instalment is now published, was arranged by Mr. Jones and the writer of this preface in the spring of 1877, at the close of a second winter of joint exploration of the isl ands. Mr. Jones has collected in Bermuda for several winters, between 1859 and 1876, and has become the standard authority on matters relat ing to the natural history of the islands. It has been our purpose in our joint work to bring together in convenient form that which is known of the natural history of the islands, and to make a complete series of fauna] and floral lists, to serve as a starting point for future works in the study of the region.
