Report on the Scientific Results of the Voyage of H.M.S. “Challenger” during the Years 1873–76 under the Command of Capt. George S. Nares, R.N., F.R.S., and Capt. F. T. Thomson, R.N.

Abstract

VOLUME X. of the “Challenger Reports” consists of over 630 pages of text, and is illustrated by 80 plates; it contains Parts xxvi. to xxx. of the Zoological Reports, all of which have been brought out under the able management of Mr. John Murray. It speaks a great deal for the energy and speed with which the publication of these Reports is conducted, when one notes that the whole of the manuscript of this large volume was only handed in between July 1883 and July 1884, and that a portion of Dr. R. Bergh's memoir had to be translated.
