General Interest Article

Abstract

The retiring president is expected to follow the custom of addressing the Academy upon some subject of general interest. Fortunately, custom does not require that such an address shall embody one's own research or investigation; but it may consist of a survey, or of reflections of a general nature. It so happens that certain fields in which I have been somewhat interested have brought me to a study of the problem of the taxonomic unit in biology.
