Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bulletin of the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard College, in Cambridge, 1904-1906, Vol. 46 The literature of Bolca fishes is extensive, and material from the typical locality has become distributed throughout the principal museums of the world. Nevertheless, the authentic specimens which have served either for the establishment of Species, or for extending our knowledge in regard to them, are preserved in comparatively few in stitutions. These are the only reliable standards we have to refer to in cases where the synonymy is confused; and as such cases are numerous, it is of importance to systematists to know where these standards are preserved and may be consulted for study. In the sequel, therefore, a list is given of all the type and figured specimens belonging to the largest single collection of Bolca fishes which at present exists. III the following brief historical summary it is hoped that some facts have been brought together relating to the study of this fauna which shall be of service to investigators.
