The writer's attention has been called to the Century Dic- 

 tionary, The Century Company, New York, 1889, 6 vols. The 

 general biological terms were defined by Dr. Elliot Coues, 

 assisted in entomology by Dr. Howard, and Mr. Herbert H. 

 Smith, and by the late Dr. Charles V. Riley, who also con- 

 tributed figures. The work is a most important one. 



A very important article on general anatomical nomencla- 

 ture was published in Science, N. Y., 1881, II, pp. 122-126, 

 133-138, by Dr. Burt G. Wilder, entitled A Partial Revision 

 of Anatomical Nomenclature, ivith Especial Reference to that of 

 the Brain. This deals, in part, with the old ambiguous or 

 equivocal terms of direction, such as front, behind, before, 

 below, and so forth. For these, suitable scientific terms are 

 proposed.* Comstock, in some of his writings (Guide to 

 Practical Work in Elementary Entomology, An Outline for 

 the use of Students in the Entomological Laboratory of Cor- 



* And compare Wilder and Gage, as cited by Comstock in the work 

 next mentioned.
