Abstract
THE Trustees of the British Museum have published a second edition of their “Guide to the British Fresh-Water Fishes” exhibited in the Department of Zoology of the British Museum (Natural History). This edition has been revised by the original author, Dr. C. Tate Regan; it is practically a reprint of the 1917 edition with one or two very minor alterations, but the paragraph on the common eel has been rewritten to include the new knowledge gained in recent years on the life-history of this fish through the researches of the late Dr. Johannes Schmidt. This publication, which is still priced at sixpence, is an invaluable little handbook for the identification of the fresh-water fishes of Great Britain.
