Description:Excerpt from Report to the Government of Ceylon on the Pearl Oyster Fisheries of the Gulf of Manaar, Vol. 5: With Supplementary Reports Upon the Marine Biology of Ceylon by Other NaturalistsBut this must be the final volume, and I wish now, in bringing the work to an end, to make use Of this opportunity mainly for the purpose (1) Of reiterating my thanks to many friends who have kindly helped me, (2) Of correcting such errors and omissions* in the former volumes as have come to my notice, and (3) of saying my final word as to the present position and future prospects of the pearl fisheries.I have reluctantly come to the conclusion that an index to the five volumes is impracticable. If it contained all specific names it would be largely an unjustifiable repetition of our lists, and every Zoologist who consults the work will be readily able to find any desired species from the classifications given in the reports. It may, however, be some aid to the reader if I give here a scheme indicating in which Part each section of the subject and each special report will be found. The sections of the pearl-oyster report proper are arranged in chronological order, as that corresponds with the natural development of the subject, from preliminaries to final conclusions, and the special, or supplementary, reports are placed in zoological order from the lowest groups to the highest, so that the position of each in the volumes can be ascertained from this list at a glance.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
