Abstract

In the proceedings of the Zool. Soc. of London for 1870,
Part 1, which reached our library only a few weeks back, I
find a paper by Dr. James Murie, F.L.S. , Prosector of the
Society, entitled "Additional Memoranda as to Irregularity
in the Growth of Salmon," so completely bearing out my often
expressed conviction that the difficulty of determining the
various species of the salmonidse from immature specimens
amounts almost to an impossibility, that an extract may prove
interesting.
