Abstract
THE appearance of volume 2 (dated October 30, 1939) of the Journal of the Entomological Society of South Africa will be welcomed by workers in this branch of zoology. Some seventeen papers are included within a compass of 262 pages and their great diversity of character may be gathered from the fact that they include descriptions of now Thysanoptera, a study of body temperature in Samia cecropia and an investigation of the chromosomes in some of the Transvaal Acrididæ. We wish every success to this new periodical and trust that it will be assured of adequate support during these critical times. The price of the volume is £2, and European readers may obtain it from N. V. Swets and Zeitlinger, Keizergracht 471, Amsterdam, Holland.
