The Fauna of British India including Ceylon and Burma was a series of publications made by the British government in India and was published by Taylor and Francis of London. It was started somewhere in 1881 after a letter was sent to the Secretary of State for India signed by Charles Darwin, Sir Joseph Hooker and other eminent men of science.[1] For this W. T. Blanford was appointed as editor and was also made in charge of the volume on mammals.

The following is a list of volumes produced in the series.
