Me too, but I'm doing the Scavenger Hunt option, and finding those last few words is proving very tricky. :-)

I know the feeling. The last few letters (In my case it was 'O') are usually hard to find.

For me with this one, it's the Z (zoology) and the I (those two science terms) that are proving the most difficult. :-) I have at least one word for all of the other letters, though I still need to find more as I'm currently sitting at 55/81. :-)

After reading your comment, I was considering books I knew of with zoology and finally figured out a book with herpetology! (was looking at mysteries before for my own hunt, but only came across herpetologist.)
As thanks for the brain push, the books I've found with zoology:
The Hound of the Baskervilles (as well as botany and entomology)
A Discovery of Witches
Half-Off Ragnarok (also has herpetology!)
Decrypted

Alas, no clues on ichthyology.

[pml]

P.S. the only book I know of for immunology is Yesterday's Kin, but it is very useful for a short book (less than 200 pages), also having microbiologist, physical science, virologist, etc.

You can find immunology in Darkness at Dawn, Shiver of Fear and Shoot to Thrill. And also in The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks
