Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Transactions of the Natural History Society, Vol. 1: Of Northumberland, Durham, and Newcastle-Upon-Tyne In introducing a new series of the Transactions, it may be of service to notice briefly the several preceding series that have been published by the Natural History Society and the Tyneside Naturalists´ Field Club. The Natural History Society was founded as an offshoot from the Literary and Philosophical Society in 1829, and published between that date and 1838 two quarto volumes of transactions. The issue of transactions then ceased, though annual reports were regularly printed and published. The Tyneside Naturalists´ Field Club, inaugurated in 1846, took up the work of publishing papers relating to local natural history, and issued six volumes of transactions covering the period from 1846 to 1864. The Field Club and the Natural History Society then agreed to unite in publishing a joint series under the title of the "Natural History Transactions of Northumberland, Durham, and Newcastle-upon-Tyne"; and from 1864 up to the present time(1903) this has formed the medium for publishing the papers and reports of both bodies. Fourteen volumes have been issued in this joint series, and a fifteenth, consisting of the second part (Microlepidoptera) of Mr. J. E. Robson´s catalogue of the local butterflies and moths, still remains to be added as the first part of the present series is going to the press. The occasion which has rendered desirable the starting of a new series is the recent decision of the Tyneside Naturalists´ Field Club to amalgamate with the Natural History Society. In consequence of this, the auspices under which the transactions are issued are somewhat changed; and the series now entered upon bears once more the title of the earliest of its predecessors, namely, the "Transactions of the Natural History Society of Northumberland, Durham, and Newcastle-upon-Tyne."
