Excerpt from The History of the European Fauna This work was written as the outcome of a paper published in the Proceedings of title Royal Iris]: Academy (3rd series, vol iv., Ou the Origin of the European Fauna. A summary of that paper appeared in Nature (vol. Lvi., and fuller extracts of more important parts, with some criticisms, in the Geological Magazine sec. Iv., vol. Iv., I freely acknowledge the value of these criticisms, which have largely assisted me to amplify and to improve upon the ideas laid down in the paper. I have found that it greatly facilitates comprehension of the arguments used, to give a few maps indicating in a general way the extent of former seas and continents. I may in this way, as Mr. Kendall has pointed out, have submerged many square miles of land which had never been covered by the sea, - at least not within recent geological times, but the maps were intended as illustrations of my views in a broad spirit only.
