The Royal Society is an independent academy promoting the natural and applied sciences. Founded in 1660, the Society has three roles, as the UK academy of science, as a learned Society, and as a funding agency. It responds to individual demand with selection by merit, not by field. The Society's objectives are to:

* strengthen UK science by providing support to excellent individuals

* fund excellent research to push back the frontiers of knowledge

* attract and retain the best scientists

* ensure the UK engages with the best science around the world

* support science communication and education; and communicate and encourage dialogue with the public

* provide the best independent advice nationally and internationally

* promote scholarship and encourage research into the history of science

For further information on the Society's activities, please contact the following departments on the extensions listed by dialling +44 (0)20 7839 5561, or visit the Society's Web site (www.royalsoc.ac.uk).

Inset cover images relate to papers in this issue. Top: Antarctic fur seal female at Bird Island, South Georgia. Exhalations observed from these seals during ascents from depth may be an adaptation to breath-hold diving (see pages 355-363; photograph, Sascha K. Hooker). Middle: Diellia falcata Brack; the Hawaiian palaeo-endemic fern genus Diellia provides insights to the dynamic history of terrestrial life at the Hawaiian archipelago since the Miocene (see pages 455-460; photograph, Ruth Aguraiuja). Bottom: a four year old Soay ram during the rut; rams fight fiercely for access to ewes, but prefer heavier females that are more fecund (see pages 365-373; photograph, Brian T. Preston).

Cover picture: A newly metamorphosed two-day-old juvenile of the Australian sea-urchin Heliocidaris erythrogramma. In free- spawning species such as this, the order in which males mate affects the quality of the offspring that they sire. See Marshall et al. Proc. R. Soc. B. 271, 1585-1589 (photograph, R. Emlet).
