Riassunto

Excerpt from The Myxomycetes: A Descriptive List of the Known Species With Special Reference to Those Occurring in North America

Doctor Macbride's death occurred in Seattle, Washington, on March 27, 1934, after a short illness, just as the final copy for the present vol ume was being made ready for submission to the publishers. During the six years it has been in preparation he has taken an active part in the work, reading and criticising the manuscript and proofs, and mak ing numerous suggestions, based on his long familiarity and Wide ex perience with the organisms of which it treats. Many of these sug gestions have been embodied in the treatment. It has been a privilege to have been associated With him in the work; it is a satisfaction to record in this place his uniform kindliness and courtesy, and the in spiration of his rare personality.

In the very nature of the case, the task of which this is a part can never be complete. This publication, like others of its kind, may represent merely a milestone, marking, in so far as it is honestly and competently wrought, a certain degree of progress toward adequate understanding of the infinite variety of forms in which life has been manifest. It is offered with a keen sense of its shortcomings and limitations, but with the hope that in its turn it may serve as a new starting point for further advance.
