intended chiefly for the needs of secondary education in Chili especially, 

 and with that end in view the examples of the various groups are selected 

 from the S. American and Chilian faunas. Fourteen parts of the work are 

 promised, of which eight are to be devoted to zoological classification, six 

 to morphology and physiology. The two before us, pp. 1-40, treat of the 

 Protozoa, Mesozoa, Sponges and Ccelenterata, and hence fall outside of 

 the field of the NEWS. But we expect this work to increase the interest in 

 Entomology, as in Zoology generally, in South America, and thus lead to 

 greatly increased knowledge of that rich fauna. Kadi, E. On the curva-
