Abstract
PROF.BERG'S work on the fresh-water fishes of the Russian Empire, complete in one volume, will be wecomed by all ichthyologists, for the author's knowledge of Palarctic fishes is unrivalled. In plan this work is more condensed than the very elaborate monograph (“ Faune de Ia Russie: Poissons ”) on which Prof. Berg was engaged, and of which three parts had already appeared, when in 1914 he gave up the curatorship of fishes in the Imperial Academy of Sciences at Petrograd to become the first professor of ichthyology in the Academy of Agricultiire at Moscow.
