Abstract
THIS is a modest little volume of 126 pages, professedly written for the “tyro.” We are informed, on p. 14, that the “pages do not profess to be either scientific or in the least anything beyond the production of a humble admirer of Nature, and only intended to put the reader on the road to the investigation of the creatures written about.” This being so, it would be unfair to judge the work from the stand-point of more special treatises, and we need do no more than comment upon the introduction of a somewhat antiquated system of classification and of minor errors which would be unpardonable in a work of greater pretensions.
