FROM THE PREFACE: The beach at St. Andrews has afforded a harvest to numerous zoologists. The late Dr. John Reid; Professor of Medicine made many original observations on the Nudibranchiate mollusks, molluscoids, and Polyzoa. The genial Prof. Edward Forbes also knew the value of the specimens thrown ashore on the West Sands. The Plates are the earlier efforts of my late sister and the vignettes (with the exception of a sketch of the Harbour by my nephew) are reduced outlines of various pictures and coloured drawings by the same lady who, with other relatives, was equally persevering in collecting and in portraying. I have to acknowledge, in conclusion, the skilful touch of Mr. Ford in his rendering of the Plates. The Woodcuts were engraved in Edinburgh, by Mr. J. M. Corner, who spared no pains in their execution. WILLIAM CARMICHAEL McINTOSH (1838-1931) ) was a Scottish physician and marine zoologist. He served as president of the Ray Society, and vice-president of the Royal Society of Edinburgh (1927-30).
