PREFACE. >- The Zoological Record for 1888 lias been prepared, under Mr. Beddard’s editorship, on nearly the same plan as the previous volume. The Committee appointed by the Council of this Society to superintend the publication for the year 1889-90, consists of Mr. F. Du Cane Godman, F.R.S., Dr. Gunther, F.R.S., Prof. A. Newton, F.R.S., Mr. Osbert Salvin, F R.S., Mr. Howard Saunders, and the President and Secretary. It is very desirable, in the opinion of the Committee, that the Record should be issued before the close of the year following that to which it relates. This has not been accomplished in the present case, but the Committee have made such arrangements as they believe will enable it to be done in future years. P. L. SCLATER, Secretary , Zoological Society of London, 3, Hanover Square, London, W. bill February , 1890. EDITOR’S PREFACE. Tiie staff of the Recorders has Undergone some alteration, owing to the retirement of Dr. Fowler and Prof. Sollas. Their places have been taken by Mr. P. Chalmers Mitchell, Mr. 0. H. Latter, and Mr. C. Warburton. Mr. Mitchell has recorded the Vermes for the present volume ; Mr. Latter the Echinodermata and Spongia ; and Mr. Warburton the Crustacea and Protozoa. Mr. Arthur Thomson found himself unable to continue recording the last-mentioned group and Ceelenterata. Mr. Hoyle has supplied the Record of the Ccelenterata , in addition to those of the groups which he recorded in the last volume. FRANK E. BEDDARD.

Poly- spermy is very rare, and only occurs when the ova are weak. Carnoy’s type of ovum (with two chromatin elements) is always fertilized by a spermatozoon with two chromatin elements, and there is a similar corre- spondence whon tho ovum contains only one chromatin olomout (in van Beneden’s type). The nuclei of ovum and spermatozoon are followed till they form the first segmentation spindle. The entire achromatin spindle-figure is due to the cell-substance. The cell-substance consists of a homogeneous matrix and a fine network, between the meshes of which lies, inter alia , a specific granular or filamentous substance — the archoplasma. The archoplasmic threads centred in protoplasmic centrosomata or central corpuscles behave like mu sole- fibrils. “ The movement of the nuclear elements is solely and wholly tho result of the contraction of the attached fibrils, and their final arrangement into an equatorial plate is the result of the equal action of the two archoplasmic spheres exerted through the said fibrils.” The equatorial plate stage is a condition of rest, par excellence , in the life of the cell. It is interrupted by the action of a new factor — the longitudinal splitting of the chromatin elements. The author seeks to justify his regarding this as “an independent expression of life, a reproductive act in the chromatin elements.” . Ueber den Anteil dos Spermatozoon an der Teilung des Eies. SB.

(2) Modifications of the spermatozoon. It does not seem as if the whole chromatin went to the formation of the male pronucleus. (3) The for- mation of two similar pronuclei, with originally very different com- ponents, shows that the process is something sui generis. (4) Three pronuolei may occur, perhaps due to the entranco of a binucleate sper- matozoon. (5) The karyokincsis of each pronucleus is independent ; fusion was not observed. (6) The essence of fertilisation consists in the process by which the sperm-nucleus— an element foreign to the ovum — is modified into an essentially inseparable element, a nucleus of the same.

Lydekker, B.A., F.G.S. Exclusive of a number of names proposed by Heude, which do not b appear entitled to take a place in the list, the following table shows the number of new generic and specific names recorded during 1888, a few of the latter being, however, those omitted from an earlier volume : — NEW GENERA. RECENT. FOSSIL. NEW SPECIES. RECENT. FOSSTL. 32 7 25 161 60 101 In addition to these, three generic names have been proposed to replace preoccupied ones. The number of new generic and specific names proposed for fossil forms is much less than in the preceding year ; but there is an increase of fifteen in the number of new specific terms applied to existing Mammals. The most remarkable feature of the year, in this respect, is, however, the comparatively large number of new genera among living forms. Thus, of the seven new generic terms proposed during the year all but one indicate entirely new forms, of which the most interesting appear to be Pteralopex among the Chiroptera , Eupetaurus in the Sciuridce, and Deomys in the Muridce. A form which is, however, likely to prove of far more interest is the new Australian Mammal, to which a name has not as yet beon applied. The large number of new recent species is extensively made up of Soricidce and Muridce. The most startling feature among fossil Mammals is the discovery that the bones of the feet on which the presumed Edentate genus Macro- therium was founded are really referable to the Perissodactylate genus Chalicotkerium. Of considerable interest from a distributional point of view is the discovery of remains of Orycteropus in one of the islands of the Turkish Archipelago. 1888. [vol. xx y. ] c 1 2 Mcimm. MAMMALIA. Among the more important works and memoirs which have appeared during the year, the following may be especially mentioned : Blan ford’s Mammals of India, of which the first part has appeared, is an extremely important work from every point of view. A work which will have many points of connection with the one last mentioned is the description by Buchner of the Mammals collected by Przewalsky in Central Asia, of which the first part has been published during the year. Turner’s Report on the Seals collected by the * Challenger,’ is also a work which cannot be passed over. From a systematic point of view the most important volume of the year is Thomas’s British Museum Catalogue of Marsupials aud Monotremes. In respect of fossil Mammals, attention may be especially directed to the following works, viz. : Cope’s Fauna of the Puerco Eocene; Forsyth-Major’s preliminary description of the Fossil Mammals of Samos ; Osborn’s Mesozoic Mammals ; Rutimeyer’s Comparison of the Mammals of the Swiss Siderolites with those of the American Eocene; Schlosser’s Tertiary Carnivora of Europe ; and Weithofer’s Monograph of new mammals from the Pikermi beds. The beautiful plates illustrating Filiiol’s Monograph of Lophiodon are also especially worthy of notice. I.— THE GENERAL SUBJECT.* Allen, H. The Distribution of the Colour Marks of the Mammalia. P. Ac. Philad. 1888, pp. 84-105. After a long discussion, the author concludes that “ mimeticism ” and “ natural selection ” are not sufficient to have caused the colour-markings of the Mammals ; illustrating this opinion by the suggestion that JEluro- pus has been unable to change its black feet and black orbital rings, although these appear out of harmony with the rest of its colouration.

This fasciculus is the first part of a general work descriptive of the whole of the recent Vertebrata of the British Indian Possessions, which is to be completed in seven volumes. The present part treats of the orders Primates , Carnivora , and lnsectivora. The classification followed is based on that of Flower, although in many cases a larger number of generic divisions are admitted. Each species is fully described, and in many cases either the skull or the external form is illustrated by a woodcut. The number of species includes 27 Primates , 73 Carnivora , and 33 lnsectivora. In the j Felidce the name Felis nebulosa is taken to supersede F. toacroceliSy while a large number of forms are grouped as synonyms of F. bengalensisy and F. isabellina is regarded as inseparable from F. lynx. In the Viver - 4 Mamm. MAMMALIA. ridce the genus Viverricida is adopted, and a number of excellent illus- trations are given of the palate and dentition of Paradoxurus and allied genera, the name Herpestes mungo being adopted for the common Mun- goose. The Canidce are split up into Cams, Cyon, and Vulpes ; the common Fox being termed Vulpes alopex, and being taken to include V. montanuSf of Blyth. The true Musteloids are divided into Mustela and Putorius ; while in the Lutrines, Lutra nair is identified with L. vulgaris, and the genus . Aonyx abolished. AElurus is, for jihe first time, placed in the Procyonidce. The Ursidai are divided into Ursus and Melursus, the name U. torquatus being adopted for the Hima- layan Black Bear. Among the Insectivora it may be remarked that the Indian Soricidce are arranged under the genera Soriculus , Crocidura , Anurosorex , Chimarrogale, and Nectogale. Reviewed in Ann. N. H.

Des Dents Exceptionnellement Monophysaires chez les Mammi- f&res Diphyodontes. CR. Soc. Biol. (8) v, pp. 37-41. In this memoir the term monophysaires is applied to teeth like the true molars of Diphyodonts, which have no predecessors ; while teeth having such predecessors are termed diphyosaires. Instances a young Rabbit, in which there are teeth regarded as the milk-predecessors of the large incisors. Also a skull of Phocu grcenlandicat showing throe milk incisors, the milk-canine, and the last three milk-molars; it being stated that the first and second incisors are usually not developed. In the Badger it is stated that there are four milk-molars. The question is then discussed as to the homology of the first cheek-tooth of the Dog, Pig, &c., and the conclusion is reached that it is a premolar. The loss of the milk-incisors in Rodents is considered to support the view that the milk-teeth are the elder. >.

The embryological arguments are next discussed ; and attention is directed to the serial homology of the incisors of Rodents and the teeth of Cetacea , which are referred to the permanent series. In conclusion, it is noticed that while the true molars of Diphyodonts develope from front to back, the premolars appear in the reverse direction, but the incisors in the same direction as the molars ; and it is argued that this affords import- ant evidence as to the homology of the teeth in cases of reduced dentition.

Commences with a discussion of the characters of the rudimental teeth of Ornithorhynchus, which are considered to be totally unlike those of any Reptile, and not very near to those of any other Mammal. Attention is then directed to the possibility of the Sauropsidan features shown by the Monotremes being due to reversion and degradation ; but this is con- sidered to be improbable, as the characters of the pectoral girdle are too similar in the two groups. It is finally suggested that the Monotremes are a comparatively late offshoot from the Sauropsidan stock ; while all other Mammals may have been derived from primitive forms more or less closely related to the Amphibia.

The Evolution of Mammalian Molars to and from tho Tritu* bercular type. T. c. pp. 1067-1079, pi. xxv. After mentioning the importance of the tritubercular type of molar structure from a morphological point of view, and referring to its frequent occurrence in the Mammals of the Puerco Eocene, and its persistence in several existing groups, the author proceeds to divide the stages of “ Trituberculy ” into the (i) Haplodont, a modification of which is represented by Dromotherium , (n) Triconodont, and (in) Tri- tubercular types. The following terms are then proposed to replace those in general use for the cusp3 of Mammalian molars, viz. : — Upper Molars. Antero-internal cusp = Protocone Postero- „ „ or 6th cusp = Hypocone Antero-external „ = Paracone Postero- „ „ = Metacone Anterior intermediate cusp = Protoconule Posterior „ ., = Metaconulo Loioer Molars. Antero-external cusp = Protoconid Postero- ,, „ = Hypoconid Antero-internal or 5th cusp = Paraconid Intermediate or antero internal cusp (in quadritubercular molars) = Metaconid Postero-internal cusp = Entoconid. The three cusps of Triconodon are considered to represent those of Spalacotherium , which clearly correspond to those of the “blade” of the tritubercular lower carnassial. The paper closes with observations as to the evolution of the cusps in various groups, and the transition from a tritubercular to a quadri- tubercular type. .

The upper molars of the Condylarthra are termed Trigonodont, while the .name Zygodont is proposed to include both the Lophodont and Selenodont types of the more specialized Ungulates. In the second part the forms described comprise Ccenopithecus , Adapist Phenacodus , Protogonia) and Meniscotheriurn ( errorini Meniscodon) ; especial attention being directed to the importance of the occurrence of Phenacodus in Europe in relation to GENERAL SUBJECT.

A summary is then given of the chief char- acters of the Mammals of the different Tertiary horizons of Europe, America, and Asia ; and the relations of extinct to existing types are subsequently more fully discussed. It is considered that Ungulates are descended from primitive Carnivorous types, and that the Condylarthra represent the transitional forms. Seeley, H. G.

The question is then discussed whether Man is derived from the Anthro- poidea or Lemuroidea, and it is concluded that neither of these groups are the ancestral stock, which should be sought among the Ungulate Condy- larthra, such as the Phenacodontidce.

Comparison of the Convolutions of the Seals and Walrus with those of the Carnivora and of Apes and Man. »J. Anat. Phys. xxii, pp. 554-581. After comparing the cerebral convolutions in these groups, it is con- cluded that the smooth-brained lower Primates could not have been derived from the Carnivora , or at least from Carnivora which had acquired convoluted brains, since such convolutions would be unlikely to disappear. If the higher Primates have been derived from lower Primates , then the hemispheres of the former, with their complex convolutions, have been evolved from a smooth- brained stock, and not from an animal with a brain like that of a Dog or Seal. Accepting this, it is not sur- prising to find that the mode of arrangement of the convolutions in the Primates differs from that obtaining in the Carnivora. .

The Mechanical Origin of the Teeth of the Carnivora. P. Am. Ass. 1887, pp. 254-257 (1888). Considers that the most primitive type of tooth was a simple cone ; next there arose fore-and-aft cusps, as in Triconodon ; and it is argued that the effect of pressure would be to thrust these cusps in the upper jaw to the outer side, and in the lower jaw to the inner side of the main cusp? from which a trituberculate tooth would result. The origin of the sectorial teeth of the Carnivora Vera from a tritubercular tooth of this type is then traced, and considered to be due to the pressure of one tooth against the other, the location being due to the position of the masseter muscle. The tubercular teeth of the Dogs and Bears are regarded as of less specialized type than the sectorials. Placzek, B. Wiesel und Katze, ein Beitrag zur Geschichte der Haus- thioro. Vorh. Vor.

From an abstract published in the Times , it appears that the author, in continuation of previous researches, was able to place before the section a record of the families down to the tenth generation. The family originated from a cat named “Punch,” which had six toes on each foot. This peculiarity appeared, with more or less modification, in a large number of its descendants, some of these having as many as seven toes on each foot, thus possibly indicating an ancestry with even more digits.

The Rodents are considered to be derived from Tillodonts (Ta3uiodonts), allied to Psittacotherium of the Puerco Eocene, and consequently that their incisors correspond to the second of the typical series. It is then argued that the large size of the incisors has originally caused a backward thrust in the mandible, which has resulted in the disappearance of the postglenoid process, and the capability of a fore-and-aft motion. This has been accompanied by changes in the insertion of muscles, and the gradual development of the present type of skull and dentition. Figures are given of skulls of Rodentia , Tillodontia , and Multituberculata. Giacomini, C. Sur le Canal Neurenterique et sur le Canal Anal dans les Vesicules Blastodermiques du Lapin. Arch. Biol.

The second part gives a general review of previous writings regarding the evolution of the Equidce (including Palceotheriidce, &c.), followed by a discussion on the same subject, in the course of which some interesting observations are made on foot-structure and. on the alleged atavistic characters of the milk-molars. It is considered that Hipparion is not the ancestor of Equus. The third part discusses the Rhinocerotidue and Tapiridas in a much briefer manner. One plate illustrates the dentition of the Equidie and allied families ; while ihe second is devoted to the foot-structure of Anchitherium and Hipparion. This memoir is reviewed by Cope, in Am.

A remarkable genealogical table is given on p. 257, in which all existing Ungulates and the Sirenians are derived from a hypothetical, and perhaps Cretaceous, ancestor, for which the name Prototapirus is proposed, the Hyracoidea , Perissodactyla , and perhaps the Dinotheriidce , being directly derived from this type ; while an intermediate form termed Hydrotapir us is provisionally suggested for the direct stock of the Sirenia, and a second, under the name of Hyolapirus , for that of the Artiodactyla and Elephantidce. t Eleplias primiyenius : J.

An elaborate account of the development of the dentition of the domestic and wild races of Sus scrofa , with figures of the different stages, and tables giving the date of appearance of the individual teeth. It is shown that while there is a great general constancy in the date of the teeth-changes, yet there are races having a tendency either to an accelera- tion or retardation of this development. Figures are given showing cranial peculiarities in these two races. Observations are also recorded in the skull and dentition of other species of the genus. Reviewed in Biol.

The relationship of the Multituberculata to the modern Diprotodontia is discussed, and also their alleged affinity to the Monotremata ; and it is considered uncertain whether they are to be regarded as a branch of the Monotreme or of the Marsupial stock. In Group B, the Triconodontidce are regarded as certainly Marsupials, the Amphitheriidcc probably, and the Kui'todontidcc possibly so, but their characters are considered sufficiently 60 Afamm.

Ac. Philad. 1888, pp. 292-301. This paper is supplemental to the preceding, and makes considerable amendments thereon. The chief amendments are as follows, viz. : — A reconsideration of the dentition of Amyhilestes, Amphitylus , and Phasco- lotherium , in which it is shown that the latter probably had premolars. The identity of Leptocladus with Peramus ; and probably that of Pera- lestes with Spalacotherium. It is further considered that Peraspalax, Amblotherium, Achyrodon , Phascolestes, Stylodon, Stylacodon> and Kurtodon are closely allied, and represent at most two or three generic types, thus leading to the abolition of the families Kurtodontidce and Amblotheriidce , and the close identity of forms referred above to the two suborders Prodidelphia and Inseetioora Primitiva. Amphilestes , Phascolotherium , Triconodon , and probably Amphitylus have a triconodont, and all the others a tritubercular dentition. .

It is referred to the group or subclass which Cope terms Buno- theria , but not to any of the described orders. It is contrasted with Tritylodon , which is described as a Bunotheroid Rodent ; while the present specimen is stated to indicate a Bunotherian with affinities to the Lemuroidea and Carnivora. Aves i A V E S. 13Y A. II. Evans, M.A., F.Z.S. During tho year 1888 the steady increase of morphological investigation, which has characterized ornithology in Common with other branches of Zoology for several years past, has at length reached a pitch far higher than any previous attempt had carried it. The magnificent work of Furbringer, published by the Society Natnra Artis Magistra of Amster- dam, even if it prove not to make an epoch, at least marks a resting- place whence future enquiries will be carried on with renewed vigour, and must be regarded as unquestionably the most remarkable ornitho- logical work of the past twelvemonth. Such details as our space will allow, and especially the systematic results arising from the author’s long-continued labours, are given under his name, and it is greatly to be regretted that the abstract contributed by his friend and fellow-worker to ‘Nature ’ (13th and 20th December, 1888), has not been reproduced in such a form as would have rendered it accessible to all English-reading Ornithologists ; but it must be borne in mind that FCrbRinger’s treat- ment of the subject is by no means limited to the Class Aves, and that very valuable observations on other groups of Vertebrates, having an important bearing on General Morphology, are included in his two massive volumes. Nor is this the only subject o£ importance incidental to the year: for of great interest, in a different direction, is the recent invasion of Syrrhaptcs — more extensive than that of 1863 — which has been duly chronicled in a large number of papers to be found under TterocVidas ; but we yet await a full account of the movement from Dr. R. Blasius and Professor Newton. Another excellent piece of work must not be omitted in this connec- tion— that of Portis on the Fossil Birds of Italy (which, strictly speaking, bolongs to a former year) ; wliilo tho Anatomical papors by Beddard, Gadow, Lucas, the two Parkers, and Siiufeldt— not forgetting FOr- bringer as above — are noteworthy. Of the Catalogue of the Birds iu the British Museum, two volumes have appeared, Sclater treating of the Oligomyodce , and SiiarRE of the 1888. [vol. xxv.] c 5 aVes. & Aves . Fringillidce. E. Bartlett has commenced a Monograph of the Ploceidte and Fringillidce ; and Menzbier is incorporating Severzoff's notes in his ‘ Ornithologio da Turkestan,’ of which the first part has been issued. Lastly, Reich enow has given us a study of the Geographical Regions from an ornithological point of view, E. P. Ramsay a Tabular List of Australian Birds, and E. Newton a list of those of the Mascareno Islauds, including the Seychelles. The following works have advanced a stage : — Giglioli & Manzeli.a (Iconografia dell’ Avifauna Italica) ; Godman & Salvin (Biologia Centrali-Americana) ; Lord Lilford (Coloured Figures of the Birds of the British Islands) ; Sharpe & Wyatt (Monograph of the Family of Swallows) : whereas those of Bolder (History of the Birds of New Zealand), Siiarpe (Continuation of Gould’s Birds of New Guinea), and A. Newton (Articles in the Encyclopaedia Britannica) have reached their conclusion. In the periodical literature of the year Cory issues the final part of his Birds of the West Indies ; Pelzeln & Lorenz that of their Types of the Ornithological Collection at Vienna j Hargitt continues his Notes on Woodpeckers, and Vian his Monograph of the Ptilojjcecles , Suudval ; while C. W. de Vis gives us a ‘ Glimpse of the Post-tertiary Avifauna of Queensland,’ in a paper of considerable importance. Oology is represented by the articles of K utter, Campbell, and North, with two parts of Sundman’s ‘ Eggs of Finnish Birds.’ The attention of Explorers seems this year to have been fairly evenly divided between the different regions.

Comparing with these facts the structure of the viscera in the Crocodile, he deduces that “ the entire fibrous expansion which arises from the vertebral column and extends over the anterior face of the stomach, liver, &c., in the Croco- dile represents both the oblique septa and the omentum in the bird*” (which are to be derived from it), and that “ the oblique septum of Birds has been produced by a vertical fold of this fibrous expansion.” .

(Bijdragen tot de Dierkunde, Afl. xv, 1 & 2). [ Cf \ Gadow, II., infra.'] Tho general character of this important work has been indicated in our opening paragraph. It consists of two parts ; the first, which is THE GENERAL SUBJECT* Aves 15 Special, contains 837 pages, and is devoted to a minute description of the bones, nerves, and muscles of the Bird’s shoulder-girdle— the result of the examination of many hundreds of specimens of all kinds. In the second and more General part, the author remarks that the study of the morphology of Aves well repays the labour, not because the Class exhibits any great or fundamental variety, but because in it several organic systems reach a height not elsewhere attained — small groups of Birds often presenting much differentiation of organs, and thereby render- ing it possible to judge of the significance of the respective differences. The origin and development of particular structures, the formation of joints, the nature of sesamoid bodies, the connection of muscles with the nervous system, their variability, and the shifting of the limbs along the vertebral column are discussed from a very general point of view ; and this last (the retrogression of the limbs) is shewn to have reached its highest degree in Birds, and especially in large Birds. The same con- sideration applies, as might be expected, to the muscles which move the limbs, and the Ncubildung (an untranslatable word in this sense) is attempted to bo explained. Passing to more particular topics, the author remarks that small Birds show more primitive and simpler con- ditions of structure than their larger allies. The first Birds were probably smaller than Arcliceopteryx , and the study of the smaller members within given groups promises to throw the most light on their phylogeny. In the second part of the second volume the taxonomic value of the various characters of all the organic systems is criticized, and a selection of 48 of them, not, of course, of equal value, as presented by the 90 families into which the class is divided, is tabulated. The result shews that those offered by the bill, feet, and oil-gland are comparatively worthless, while pterylosis is never to be neglected. Then follows a disquisition on oology, after which osteological characters are considered, especially in regard to the discovery of a unit for measurement, on the existence of which the author’s labour seems to throw doubt. The anterior portion of the sternum is shewn to be noteworthy ; but more important still is the maxillo-palatal structure, though Huxley’s taxonomy based on this [cf. Zool. Rec. iii, pp. 46-49] seems to be artificial, as the numerous exceptions, ascertained by later researches, go to prove. In some cases the hyoid bones afford good characters. The extent of the coraco-scapular angle depends inversely on the development of the humeral muscles, as is shewn in a tabular form. The difficulty of determining the homologies of the constituents of the pelvis is then considered, but with unsatis- factory results, though the subject is evidently one of promise. Here there is no space for more than allusion to the chapters treating of Palaeontology and Geographical Distribution ; but a peculiarly important feature of this work is to be found in the two plates giving lateral views of the supposed ancestral tree of the Class, and three others representing &s many sections through this ideal tree at different epochs. The Classi- fication adopted as the result of all this unparalleled labour is shewn in the following scheme, reduced to the minimum of detail ; and cannot but compare favourably with other plans that it has been the duty of the Recorder of Aves to set forth from time to time 16 Aves.

The Morphology of Birds. Nature, xxxix, Nos. 993 & 999, pp. 150-152 & 177-181 [13 and 20 Dec , 1888]. An admirable extract of Furbringer’s great work (supra, p. 14), con- cisely setting forth its author’s researches and their results, to which We have been greatly indebted for the brief notice already given of it. So far as we are aware, it is the only attempt yet made to make known more generally the enormous extent and the particular bearing of his laborions investigations. Its republication in a more accessible form is a thing greatly to be desired. . Remarks [1] on the Numbers and [2] on the Phylogenetic Development of the Remiges of Birds. P. Z. S. 1888, pp. G55-6G7. Part i. contains a comprehensive examination of the number and size of the primaries, with tables of the results, which are given separately for Wallace’s groups (a, b, c, d) of Passei'cs. The author finds evideuce of the gradual reduction in number of the functional quills, but considers it of little value for classification. In Part II he discusses Wray’s discovery that oue or two rows of greater under wing-coverts were originally situated on the dorsal side of the wing, and its appli- cation to the cases of the Ratitce and Spheniscidce ; he also refers to Furbringer’s explanations of the number of scale-like feathers on the wing in the latter family, though disagreeing with that writer’s views; and, finally, states his own ideas on phylogenetic development, which lead to the conclusion that Ffirbringer is right in considering the Ratitce to bo descendants of Birds with the power of flight, and that, on anatomical grounds, the Spheniscidce should not be separated from the Carina tee. .

The author’s object was to ascertain whether the Mimince should be referred to the family Troglodytidce — where they are found in recent American works — or whether they come nearer to the Turdidce. The characters on which he chiefly relies are the measurements and shape of the par 8 plana, the maxillo-palatines, the costal process, and the coracoid. On comparison, he finds that the lacrymal is of little taxonomic value, nor is the form of the vomer sufficiently constant to aid in the decision : this is also the case with th q pelvis and the ilia. The conclusions drawn are : (1) that, osteologically speaking, the Mimince have as much right to constitute a separate family as the Thrushes or Wrens, though it is doubtful whether the characters are of sufficient value to allow us to establish such a family ; (2) that they certainly should not be iucluded in the Troglodytidce. .

The author’s intention is to shew that Rathke’s views as to the develop- ment of the above parts are not applicable to Birds, as far as concerns the origin of the carotid and subclavian arteries. He thinks that writer was misled by confining his studies too closely to Mammals and Reptiles, and that perhaps, even in the case of Chelonian and Crocodilian Reptiles, the present theories will be found inadequate. His division of the subject is into : (1) Anatomy of the Larger Arteries in Birds ; (2) Scheme of Development according to Rathko ; (3) Development of the Subclavian and Carotid Artories, with description of Observations and summary of the Embryology of the same in the Bird ; (4) Comparative Anatomy of these arteries, with a detailed description of eaoh in different Vertebrata , and a Summary.

[Received under the title of “ Morphology of Birds”] The author has worked out the structure of the carpus in the chick of seven days and older, finding that the “radiale” and “ulnare” show evidence of being compound structures, probably containing within themselves remnants of an “intermedium ” and a “centrale.” He has figured various stages in the development of the three oloments of the distal row of carpal elements, and has traced them up to their final vestigial rudiments in the co-ossified “ carpo metacarpus ” of the adult, verifying the results by comparison with other Birds. He has next traced the development of the three metacarpal bones, with their changes. Here he finds “ certain small cartilaginous elements,” which leave their traces in the full-grown wing. Lastly, ho has observed afresh the small distal phalanges in the Fowl and other Birds, and the rudimentary nails or claws of the second and third digits ; and has added a short revision of the structure of the wing in the liatitce. .

Aves 39 the following may be stated as the result obtained. We may separate* as a distinct order, the “ Great Gallino-Gralline ” group of Birds, and subdivide it into the following 10 suborders, under the two heads of Galline and Gralline, each suborder being related to the others according to its position : — (1) Galline : Crypturi , Gallince , Pterocletes, Columbce . (2) Gralline : Ilemipodii , Grallce, Tubinares , Gavio- Limicolce , Colymbo - Podicipes , Impennes. Of these, again, the Crypturi are more nearly allied to the Gallium than to any other group ; the Columbce are very intimately connected with the Pterocletes ; the Ilemipodii approach the Grallce and Gavicc closely ; the Alcidce coincide in certain points with the latter, rather than with the Colymbo- Podicipes ; while the Grallce are considered to include the Opisthocomidce, Mesitidce , Eurypygidce , Gruidce, RliinocJietidce , Psophiidce, Otididce , Pallidce, and Cariamidce , and are divided, after Garrod, into Schizorhinal and Holorhinal forms.

Basing his remarks with respect to the pterylography and osteology on Nitzsch and A. Milne-Edwards, with whom he appears to agree entirely, the auihor of this paper gives several additional particulars to confirm the division of the Striges into Strigidce and Bubonidce. These consist of differences (1) in the prefrontal processes of the ethmoid (swollen in Strix ), (2) in the relative lengths of the phalanges of the 3rd digit (more equal in Bubo , &c.), (3) in the dissimilar method of division of the tensor patagii brevis , (4) in the incomplete structure of the syrinx and in the attachment of its intrinsic muscles. He agrees with Milne-Edwards in considering Fhotodilus to be a form intermediate between the two groups, its osteology being that of Bubo , its pterylosis that of Strix , while Ilelio- dilus comes nearer to the latter.

In this extensive work, following closely upon Gunther’s ‘ Challenger ’ repart, which could ouly be used by the author when the whole of the plates and part of the text had passed through the press, numerous dis- crepancies occur in the nomenclature as compared to that of the latter work ; but in an appendix, an attempt is made at bringing the two more in accordance. The names quoted in the systematic portion of the present Record are therefore, in many cases, those used in the appendix.

Maurice (9) has given a most complete detailed account of the anatomy and histology of Fragaroides aurantiacum , a new Compound Ascidian closely allied to Fragarium elegans , Giard, which he found at Ville- franche. The colony owes its orange colour in part to the presence in great abundance of small parasitic A Igai ( Protococcus ), which are found in the test. As in many other Compound Ascidiaus, there is no colonial vascular system. The test cells act as phagocytes in removing the bodies of dead ascidiozooids. In the tailed larva the yoke is absorbed in the same way by the mesoblast cells (future blood corpuscles). The ascidio- zooids adhere to the test, not only at the branchial and atrial apei tures, but also along the lines of the longitudinal muscle bands, of which there are ten on each side. The atrial apertures open into ramified common cloacal cavities, and the atrial languets serve to keep these canals open. The branchial aperture has eight lobes. There are fourteen tentacles, of different sizes. Maurice considers the dorsal tubercle to be merely the orifice of the subneural gland. The branchial sac has thirteen to sixteen rows of stigmata on each side, with about thirty in each row. There are wide horizonal membranes and the usual dorsal languets. The transverse vessels of the branchial sac aro fused with the body wall, so as to divide the peribranchial cavity into a number of independent passages at the sides of the body, all communicating dorsally with the atrial cavity. There are muscles in the transverse vessels, as is the case in many other Com- pound as well as Simple Ascidians. An incubatory pouch is developed, as in Colellu and other forms, and the ova are introduced at its posterior end, so that the most advanced embryos are found anteriorly. The walls of the stomach are deeply channelled longitudinally. In connection with the nerve gangliou is found the posterior or visceral prolongation which is n >w being discovered in many species of Ascidians. Maurice is inclined to agree with Julin and others that the subneural gland is the homologue of the hypophysis cerebri, but he denies that it is either renal or mucous in function. The muscles are of a mesenchymatous nature, although Julin and E. van Beneden have shown that the Tunivata are enteroccelic. The post-abdomen contains the usual pericardiac and epicardiac tubes. In regard to the relations of these organs and the relations of the reproductive systems, Maurice supports Julin and Yan Beneden’s results. Most of the details in regard to the other parts of the body are similar to those already well-known in many other Compound Ascidians. Joliet (5) has left some unfinished studies in the anatomy of Pyrosoma giganteum. IIeudman (4, Appendix «) gives a description of the histology of the dorsal tubercle of a large unknown species of Asculia from Kerguelen Island. It consists of a large number of tubular glands, openiug by meaus of ciliated infundibula. It appears to represent the conjoined neural gland and dorsal tubercle of other A cidians in a very simple con- dition, and supports the view that these organs arc derived from a mucous gland. ANATOMY — PHYliOGENY. Tun, 3 A general account of the anatomy of Pyrosoma , Doliolum, Salpa, Octacnemus , and Appendicularia are given in the ‘ Challenger ’ Report, while detailed descriptions of some special points are found under the new species. Todaro (11 ) compares the two large branchial clefts of Salpa with the two stigmata of Appendicularia , and with the two primary stigmata of Ascidia. Physiology. Giard (2) lias found symbiotic fungi belonging to the Chytrulinew, and for which he has formed the new genus Nephromyces, living in the closed renal sac of some Molgulidce, at Wimereux. He finds distinct species of fungi in the Ascidians Molgula socialis, Aid., Litkonephrya eugyranda , Lac.-Duth., and Anurella roscovitana, Lac.-Duth. ; and he considers that these parasites are useful to their hosts by using up the excreted urinary products which otherwise might fill up the renal organ, which has no duct to the exterior. Parona (10) treats of the Protista parasitic iu Ciona intestinalis found at Genoa. Development. The late M. L. Joliet left an unfinished account of the structure and budding of Pyrosoma giganteum , which has now been published. He found that the subneural gland and its duct are derived, not from an invagination of the buccal cavity, but from the primitive neural vesicle. He believed the dorsal tubercle to be an olfactory organ. He discussed also, in another incomplete paper, the alternation of generations in Salpa and Pyrosoma , and defended Chamisso’s views against the objec- tions raised by Brooks. Geographical Distribution. The third and concluding part of the Report upon the ‘Challenger’ Tunicata contains an account of the geographical and bathymetrical distribution of the Thaliacea, the Panacea, and the Ascidice Salpiformes collected during the expedition. These lists show that the pelagic Tunicata are very widely distributed ; in fact, some species are seen to have a world-wide distribution, and no genus is restricted in its range to a particular ocean. The only undoubtedly deep-sea form is Octacnemus , which was probably fixed to the bottom. It was found at depths of 1070 and 21 GO faths. PHYLOGENY. Lahille (8) considers that the Tunicata are not the ancestors of the Vertebrata , but form a very distinct group. Herdman (4), at the conclusion of the ‘ Challenger ’ Report, gives a detailed account of the probable phylogeny of the genera of the Tunicata. The group is regarded as a degenerate offshoot from the Protochordata, 4 Tun. TUNIOATA. and the two most important conclusions arrived at in regard to its further history are : (i) Pyrosomti, although now a pelagic free-swimming organism, was derived from the fixed Compound Ascidians, to which it is related through Coslocormus huxleyi ; (n) the Ascidte Composite are a poly- phyletic group, being derived from the ancestral Simple Ascidians at three distinct points, and consequently the Compound Ascidians form three groups : (1) the Polystyelidce , (2) the Botryllidce, and (3) the remaining families, which are more nearly related to particular sets of Simple Ascidians than they are to one another. SYSTEMATIC. LARVAOEA . Herdman (4) gives a definition and a general account of the structure and history of the Appendiculariidce , with diagnoses of the four genera — Appendicular ia: Oilcopleura, Fritillaria , and Kowalevskia — and a record of the localities at which Appendicularians were found during the ‘ Chal- lenger’ expedition.

Pol. 5 In Cristatella and Plumatella the cavity of the supra oesophageal ganglion is not completely surrounded by nervous elements, blit has endo- thelium on the oesophageal side. The contained fluid is in communication with the body-cavity, and does not coagulate under the influence of reagents. The distribution of the nerves is described ; Saefftigen. The colonies of Cristatella are unisexual ; the foot is not a true foot, but motion may take place either in the direction of its length or of its breadth; Jullien (3). The operculum not only serves to close the orifice of the zooecium, but also to close the cavity into which the compensatory water penetrates when the polypide is exserted ; Jullien (2). The conclusions of La Yalette St. George on spermatogenesis are in the main confirmed by researches on Alcyonella ; Korotneff. The formation of young buds is always connected with the presence of older ones ; the inner layer of the bud becomes ectoderm, the outer becomes the inner epithelium of the wall of the cystid, the cells of which give rise to muscles of integument and gut, retractor muscles and filaments connecting polypid and cystid. Different forms of colonies related to varying rapidity in budding. The statoblast forms a single primary individual, which forms a stock by gemmation. Spermatozoa develop not in the funiculus, but in the septa ; Braem. Criticism regarding question of priority ; Kraepelin (2). Investigations on the development of Bagula calathus confirm in the main Barrois’ results; the hypoblast does not seem to take part in the formation of the bud, as maintained by Ostrooumoff ; Vigelius. Some points in the terminology of Kraepelin (cf. Zool. Itec. xxiv, Pol. p. 2), and in his treatment of various genera, especially Frederkella , are criticised by J ullien (4).

The most important systematic works dealing with the Insects of the whole world are again, in 1888, to 'be found under Ortliopterci , viz., Brunner yon Wattenwyl (112), and Saussure (791, 792) ; the second of Do Saussure’s memoirs, besides describing a large number of new gonora and spccios, discusses somo points of mimicry and the musical apparatus of Orthoptera. Reuter’s (736) laborious work on the synonymy of Rhynchota is accompanied by a statement} of his opinions on some points of nomenclature. Faunistic works are again extensive. Skuse (841 ) has commenced a series of memoirs on the Diptera of Australia, a subject that has been hitherto greatly neglected : his work deserves special notice, not only for the reason mentioned, but also because he has, in due course, first taken in hand the minute Gall-flies [and Midges ; these are very numerous, and are mostly described as new. Scudder (820) has apparently determined to say all that may be said of general interest about the Butterflies of New England, and has thus included a considerable quantity of matter that would not have been misplaced in a book with less restricted faunistic limits. Godman & Salvin’s work on the Natural History of Central America (319) has made much progress in the order Coleopterci. Rostock & Kolbe’s tables for the determination of the Neuroptcra of Germany (778) will probably be found useful by other European Neuropterists. In Anatomy and Physiology some valuable works have appeared. Grassi, in his memoir (329) on Thysanura , discusses several points of importance and general interest, such as the phylogeny of Insecta , the classification of Ncuroptera , and whether the I'hymrmrajavQ primitive or degonerato Insects. Rath (712) and Ruland (786) treat of tho organs of sense, the latter giving particulars about the structures existing on the antennae, while Rath, in his investigations, includes also the trophi. Patten continues his studies of “eyes” by a memoir (662) on their development in the larva of Acilius ; and Plateau (674, 675, 676) has published an account of experiments made with the object of ascertaining what the functional powers of the optic organs really are. 1888. [vol. xxv.] e 1 2 Ins. INSECTA. Emery’s paper (230) on the trituratory or suction-crop of Ants deserves attention, as does also Cuccati’s (172) on the brain of a Fly. Fritze (289) deals with an interesting subject, viz., the condition of the alimentary canal in the perfect Insect of Ephemeridce ; and Graber (325), under the terms polypody and pantopody, speculates whether, in ancestral Insects, additional, or all of the, segments of the body were furnished with legs. Other important memoirs on embryological ques- tions are given by the same author (324), Henking (370), and Will (930). Papers by Deichmuller (178) and Oppeniieim (642) on the fossil Insects of the lithographic stone of Bavaria describe numerous additional forms, besides revising the systematic positions of some previously described by Germar and others. A new periodical of a useful and interesting character, serving as a sort of link between economic and general entomology, has been commenced in America under the title of Insect Life. ✓ The Recorder will feel greatly obliged by any omissions or important errors being pointed out to him, so that they may, as far as possible, be remedied in the next volume. Several new stations of economic entomo- logy have been, ho understands, established in the United States of North America, and some of them publish reports ; but these ho has not seen in any library to which he has access.

The work is to consist of twelve parts, of which two have been issued up to Dec., 1888, comprising 88 pp. of Introduction, and pp. 105-304 of the Systematic Part, and several plates and maps. The Introduction contaius : — I. The general structure of Butterflies. II. The modern classification of Butterflies historically considered, in. The physical features and faunistic divisions of New Eugland. The Systematic Part is varied by digressive essays, under the name of “ Excursus ” ; these at present published are : — I. The White Mountains of New Hampshire as a homo for Butterflies (pp. 127-134). ii. The clothing of Caterpillars (pp. 161-1G3). m. The general changes in a Butterfly’s life and form (pp. 178-180). iv. The eggs of Butterflies (pp. 190-192). v. The modes of suspension of Caterpillars (pp. 201-203). VI. The geographical distribution of Butterflies (pp. 211-213). vn. The ancestry of Butter- flies ; the primaeval form (pp. 235-240). vm. The means employed by Butterflies of the genus Basilarchia for the perpetuation of the species (pp. 260-266). In the Systematic Part he adopts a division iuto four families : Nymphalidce, Lycamidce , PapiUonkhe, and Hesperiului. Separate systematic tables are given, based on egg, young caterpillar, mature caterpillar, chrysalis, and imago. The references to the plates in our record are taken from the letterpress ; some of the figures have not yet appeared. Reviewed in Nature, xxxix, p. 193, by Elwes. 821. .

Suisse, iv, pp. 545-651, pis. xxv-xxx. A complete account of tho development from the ovum. The author differs from previous writers in many poiuts, and comes to the conclu- sion that there is an almost absolute agreement with the development of other Echiuoderm larvae. Among the results obtained may be noted : (i) The oesophageal invagination is formed from a ventral fossa ; (ii) the long axis of the adult does not coincide with that of the larva ; (iii) the curvature of the young Pentacrinus is the ventral curvature of the embryo ; (iv) the peduncle is the praeoral lobe, and the peduncular cord is formed by a central axis of mesenchyme cells ; (v) the calyx represents the “body ” s.s. of other larvae ; (vi) the vestibular sac is epiblastic, and from it the oesophageal invagination is given off ; (vii) the 10 calcareous pieces arise simultaneously, and with a perfectly symmetrical arrange- ment ; (viii) abnormal cases occur where the larvae have failed to become attached, aud in such instances tho “ body ” is inserted in the side, and not on the summit of the praeoral lobe — i.e ., abnormalities resemble other normal Echinoderm larvae. 4.

The extent of the adoral band differs in the various groups of Echinoderniatu , and the “Pluteus arms ” are not to be considered as homologous throughout. The origin of the nervous system is described, the account of the histology being at variance with that of Metschnikoff. The larval nervous system forms the nerve- ring of the adult. All Echinoderm nervous systems are probably derived by precocious segregation from the ciliated bands. A full account of the history of the ccelomic sacs and water-vascular system is given. The homologies of the tentacular vessels, radial water- vascular canals, and pieces of the calcareous ring require to be reconsidered. The coelom does not extend into the tentacles. The plijdogeny of the Holotkuria aud of the Echinodermata generally is discussed. The Echinodermata are to bo derived from an ancestral form, “ Pentactcea” resembling the Pentactula larva of Synapta. The Echinoderm classes may be groupod — (1) Angio- chirota (Holothuroids) ; (2) Achirota (Echinoids) ; (3) Ctelomachirota (Crinoids, Ophiurids, and Asteroids). 58. Sluiter, 0. Ph.

The apparent “central” of many Platy- crinidce and Actinocrinidce is really the posterior oral thrust inwards by anal structures. The names Paheocrinoidea and Neocrinoidea must be laid aside. A new classification is suggested. A diagnosis is given of the Ichthjocrinklai . II. SUBJECT-INDEX TO LIST OF PUBLICATIONS. Distribution.

Semon proposes the following groups : — I. Angiochirota = Holothuria : retain the primitive relation of the tentacular to the somatic region. ii. Achirota = Echinoids : tentacular region aborted, in. Ccelomachirota = Crinoids, Ophiurids, and Asteroids : the cadomic region has extended iuto the tentacular region. CLASSIFICATION, HOLOl HUROIDEA. Ech. 11 Wachsmutii & Springer (64) discard the terms Palceo - and Neo- crinoidea , and suggest as the classification of the Crinoidea : — 1. Camarata. 2. Inadunata. (a) Larviformia. (/3) Fistulata. 3. Articulatci. (a) Ichthyocrinidce. 4. Canaliculata (including most of the mesozoic and recent Crinoids). Carpenter (14) classifies as follows : — — — Class Crinoidea. Order Neocrinoidea. Family Comatulidoe (amended 1888, Carpenter). Genus i. Thaumatocrinus. Genus n. Atelecrinus. Genus ill. Hudiocrinus. Genus iv. Antedon. Baskurva group. A coda group.

Arch. mikr. Anat. xxxi, p. 567. The polar bodies are formed by a true process of karyokinesis. The spermatozoon, during the formation of the polar bodies, decreases in size by losing not only its protoplasm, but some of its chromatin; so that the $ prouucleus is not formed of all the chromatin of the spermato- zoon. The author opposes Hertwig’s view of impregnation as the fusion 10 Verm. VERMES. of the pronuclei. He corroborates Van Beneden’s observation that the pronuclei do not fuse, and holds that impregnation is complete when the $ pronucleus is fully formed. [Kultschitzky, N.] (2) Ueber die Eireifuug u. die Befruchtungs- vorgiinge bei Ascaris marginata. Op. cit. xxxii, p. 671. The penetration of the spermatozoon into the ovum depends more on the ovum protoplasm than on the movements of the spermatozoon. The polar bodies are separated off by a true process of karyokinesis. . (3) Ergebnisse einer Untersuchung uber die Befruchtungsvorgange bei Ascaris megalocephala. SB. Ak. Berl. 1888, i, p. 17.

The histology agrees in the main with that of Halistemma, as given by Korotnev ; among other features may be mentioned small red glands on the bracts, which expel a yellowish red colouring matter when the animal is captured. The tentacles have a terminal orifice ; Bedot. Detailed anatomy of Fenja mirabilis and AEgir frigidus ; Danielssen [c/. p. 32, postea]. Morphology of the Siphonophora ; Hjeckel (1, 2) [ vide infrh].

A general sketch of recent contributions to the morphology of the Hydroida is given by Allman. The comparative anatomy of the Rhizostomata is exhaustively treated ; two new species are described in detail, and the systematic position of the group is discussed j Lendenfeld (8). Flabellum michelini and F. pavoninum are described anatomically, and some criticisms offered on the writings of Bourne & Fowler ; Koch. Madracis asperula forms a eoenenchymatous colony, with septa pro- jecting above the general surface, and is morphologically intermediate between Caryophyllia and Seriatopora ; Fowler (3). Amphihelia ramea has a canal system between the body-wall and corallum ; in Stephanophyllia formosissima the body-wall is supported only by the costae ; id. t. c. Iu Penpatula phosphorea all the polyps of one leaf are arranged in the same direction ; the two dorsal septa only are ectodermal in origin, and gonads never develope on them ; Jungersen. The morphology of Cunoctantha and the new form Gastrodes is dis- cussed ; the latter is the larval form of a Cunina ; Korotnev (3). On the basis of an anatomical examination by means of thin sections, Parkeria is placed amoDg Hydrozoa) intermediate between Hydrocoral- lina and the Hydractiniidce ; Nicholson (1).

In Velella and Porpita , about twice a minute, the lower surface is strongly pressed against the air chambers so as to expel their con- tents. These forms are thus Ccelenterata , which breathe air by traclieoa ; Chun (2). The process of ingestion in Hydra , and the minute anatomy of the digestive apparatus in different stages of the process ; Greenwood.

In general those species which inhabit the shore can stand influence of fresh water better than those from deeper water ; id. (2). Pelagia noctiluca owes its phosphorescence to a luminous micro- organism {Bacterium pelagia) ; Dubois. The propagation of the phosphorescence of Pteroules is almost certainly a phenomenon of turgescence, and by no means due to nervous con- duction ; Krukenberg (1). A few data in some other phosphorescent Coelenterates ; id. (2). ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY. Coel. 13 The marginal corpuscles of Actinia are certainly not eyes, though they are most likely sensory ; this function being, however, subordinate to their use as offensive weapons ; B^raneck. Effect of the electric light on various species ; Lacaze-Duthiers (2). Specimens of Hydra retired under piece of bark, preparatory to sexual reproduction ; Tight. In Millepora plicata young sexual cells are found in the ectoderm of the coenosarcal canals ; the ova have a stalk, which can be broken and re- generated. The maturation of the ovum is described ; the segmentation is indistinct. The embryo assumes the form of a solid blastosphere, and in this stage migrates into the gastrozooid ; beyond this it was not traced. The origin of the sexual cells supports the view that the ectoderm of Hydrozoa is the original seat of the sexual cells; Hickson (2). In Myriothela the formation of the egg, and of the male elements, the fertilization and the earliest developmental changes are described ; Korotnev (1). Oonactinia prolifera (Sars) reproduces by transverse fission. Bud-like tentacles appear rather below the middle of the body and form two rings. Then an oral disc and oesophagus develope, and the upper part separates by a constriction. Some general observations on asexual reproduction of Actinians are added ; Blociimann & Hilger. Weisrnanu’s view of the origin of the female sexual products of the Hydromcdusce is confirmed in the case of Podocoryne ; Ishikawa. In Manicina areolata the endoderm is formed by delamination ; the supporting lamella is secreted by both endoderm and ectoderm ; the fifth and sixth pairs of mesenteries develope as stated by Lacaze-Duthiers. The mesenteric filaments are ectodermal. In conclusion, observations are given on the origin of the Anthossoa, which is regarded as having been pro- bably from a hydropolyp ancestry ; Wilson, H. Y. Statements as to the time of sexual maturity of various species ; Lo Bianco. List of Ccelenterata in which parasitic castration has been observed ; Giard(I). For a few remarks on records of hybridity, see Suchetet. Segmentation and formation of larva of Lucernaria described ; also an abnormal individual of L. octoradiata ; Bergii. In Epcnthesis mlcradyi the hydromedusa bears upon each of its four reproductive organs a number of Hy droid blastostyles, from which young Medusa are produced by budding. This life history is quite exceptional, the bodies carried on the reproductive organs being true blastostyles, so that there is a recapitulation of larval stages without sexual reproduction; Brooks (2). In PhyllorTiiza punctata the ephyra has eight, the next stage twenty- four, the next sixteen, and the adult eight marginal bodies. If the umbrella is injured, marginal bodies appear between the newly-formed flaps. Crambessa mosaica migrates up rivers to deposit its young. A new brown variety seems to have superseded the blue, except in Port Phillip. Freshwater Hydroids of Australia resemble those of Europe, though the marine forms differ widely; Lendenfeld (7). 14 Ccel. C(ELENTERATA. In youngest Fungias observed there is a stalk and vertical thecal walls ; 6 septa are larger than the rest, and have others intercalated between them ; the walls then spread out, and a disc is formed, which separates from the stalk by absorption across a plane in the top of the latter. The detached top leads a separate existence. The top of the stalk develops enlarged septa and a new mouth, so that a new disc is formed, which separates in the same manner as the old one ; Lister. Larvae, supposed to be those of Feachia hastata, described ; H addon (1). A young Pennatula, 7 mm. in length, is described, consisting only of the axial or terminal polyp, which has eight seizing arms, and is con- tained in a cup with eight processes. There are five buds, four lateral, one median ; the last has no tentacles, and is on the surface usually, but erroneously, called ventral. The early stages of Pennatula and Benilla are compared; Jungersen. Development of the Hydroida ; Tikhomerov. Arachnactis is not the larval form of Edwardsia. Both this genus and Cerianthue are bilateral throughout life. The primordial Anthozoon was a free-swimming bilateral animal, provided with an invaginated buccal tube, held in position by septa, producing eggs, not buds, and developing continuously. The fixed condition is secondary, and characterised gene- rally by asexual reproduction ; Vogt (1). A number of specimens of Scyphistoma , though kept under observation for ten days, showed no sign of strobilization ; several explanations are suggested ; Fischer (2). The development of a species of Oceania is described, in which occur buds, which, like egg-embryos, recapitulate the larval stage through which the parent has already passed. In this case the continuity of the germ- layers is unbroken ; Brooks (1). The species in various families are classed under the headings, having the value of subfamilies, Actinulipares , Planuliparee , and Medusipares ; Du Plessis. Note on the inversion of Hydra ; Mitsikuri. Protozoon parasite on Hydra ; Turner. Two cases of fish which live for protection among the tentacles of Anemones : Sluiter.

The * Challenger ’ Report is a complete monograph of this group. In the introduction the general morphology and special anatomy of the group are discussed ; a new view of their organisation, entitled the “ Medusome theory,” is propounded, in virtue of which the various parts of a colony may be “ either medusiform persons, or special organs of the same,” and this“ whether they bud out from a common basis on the stem, or arise in different positions, iu consequence of kinogenetic migration or dislocation.” The Siphonophorci are divided into two subclasses : the Disconanthcc , which are regarded as having been developed from Craspe- dotce; and the Siphonanthce, of which the Anthomedusce are considered to be the ancestors. There is an extensive bibliography, table of terminology, and a systematic list of the whole class ; Haeckel. Haeckel’s medusome theory criticised ; Ciiun (2). DISCONECTiE. DiscaliDjE, n. fam.
