As a result, have been shifted so frequently that it has become very difficult p pace with the changes, and general readers who do not appre the necessity for such changes regard the desired goal of sta as practically unattainable. The extent of these changes is r shown in the case of North American mammals. Of the 160 Ire generic names used by True in his 'provisional List of the nals of North and Central America,' in 1885, some 35 or 40, My 25 per cent of the entire number, have been changed during t years on what may be termed bibliographical grounds. Ten x names have been found to be preoccupied and the others have way to earlier names. Changes like these can only be avoided Wing complete indexes which will show not only what names been proposed in a given class and on what species they are L but also whether the same generic names have been previously ed to other groups.
