All rights reserved, including the right to reproduce this book or portions thereof in any form, except for the inclusion of brief quotations in a review.

Particularly am I indebted to the following members of the Scientific Staff who have read and helpfully criticized chapters of this book: Dr. John T. Zimmer, Curator of Birds; T. Donald Carter, Assistant Curator of Mammals; Francesca R. La Monte, Associate Curator of Fishes; Bessie Matalas Hecht, Scientific A ssistant, Amphibians and Reptiles; John Pallister, Research A ssociate, Insects and Spiders; Farida A. Wiley, I nstructor, Department of Education; Dr. Henry K. Svenson, Curator, Forestry and Botany; Robert R. Ccles, Chairman, Astronomy and the Hayden Planetarium. Also my
