Abstract
BOTH the author of this book and the editor of the “Treatise on Zoology” are to be congratulated on this, the latest addition to the series. The author is dealing with a subject with which he is thoroughly familiar, and to which he has contributed a large amount of important research. The whole plan of the book is carefully conceived and carried out, and we can only regret that the necessity to keep the size of the book within certain limits has made great concentration inevitable in dealing with many parts of the subject. However, references to more than five hundred original papers afford a guide to the student who wishes to amplify Mr. Goodrich's text.
