Abstract
THIS is a work by an enthusiast who lives for his subject and makes his subject live. Such is the thoroughness of the groundwork on which it is based and the completeness of the treatment that it is unlikely to be superseded. Dr. Hall's knowledge is based on the examination of some eighteen thousand specimens, most of which were collected by expeditions led by him between 1930 and 1936, during which he covered the whole State of Nevada.
