Extract

The following notes consider very briefly a very large field. They apply primarily to zoological systematics. They reflect my respect for the thoughtful field naturalist and, probably, some other prejudices. They reflect my inrerest in the species rather than in the higher categories, and are of course influenced by the limitations of my experience.
