Extract

Although the osteology of Antarctic seals has been very completely discussed, notably by the late Dr J. E. Gray, Sir William Turner, and Professor Robert Thomson, yet the literature regarding the subject is somewhat scattered. I have therefore considered that it might be important from the point of view, as it were, of an index to publish a complete series of photographs of a set of the skulls of seals taken by the naturalists of the Scotia during the Antarctic voyage of 1902–1904.
