The STAFF (Professor KOFOID in charge) MUSEUM OF VERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY The Museum of Vertebrate Zoology, located in a separate building on the campus at Berkeley, was founded and endowed by Miss Annie M. Alexander as a repository for specimens and information relative to the higher vertebrate animals of the Pacific Coast region of North America. The particular groups of animals with which it is concerned are the mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians; of these, it has a very large and continually growing collection, comprising (on March 1, 1927) a total of 100,448 catalogue entries. These materials, together with the accompanying field notes, photographs, and maps, furnish basis for studies. along systematic, faunistic, ecologic, and economic lines. Students interested in the museum may address Professor J. GRINNELL, Director of the Museum of Vertebrate Zoology, University of California, Berkeley, California.
