| Summary | "Mammals Collected by Dr. W. L. Abbott on the Natuna Islands" by Gerrit S. Miller is a scientific publication detailing the findings from expeditions undertaken by Dr. Abbott during the spring and summer of 1900. Written in the early 20th century, the book focuses on the variety of mammalian species collected from the Natuna Islands in the South China Sea, presenting both new discoveries as well as insights into previously collected specimens. The book serves as an important contribution to the knowledge of the region's fauna. In the work, Miller provides a comprehensive account of the 265 mammal specimens gathered by Dr. Abbott, identifying species and documenting their characteristics, measurements, and localities. The study discusses the relationships of the Natuna mammalian fauna, highlighting similarities and differences with neighboring regions, such as Borneo and the Malay Peninsula. The detailed descriptions cover various species, including new species identified during these expeditions, offering valuable data for taxonomists and biologists interested in the biodiversity and ecology of the Natuna Islands.
