BOOK NOTICE. 



The Harriman Alaska Expedition, Vols. VIII. and IX. — Insects, 

 Part I, pp. ix-f238, 17 plates ; Part 2, pp. 284, 4 plates ; numerous 

 headpieces and figures in the text. Published by Doubleday, Page & 

 Company, New York. 



These two sumptuous volumes contain the entomological results of 

 the far-famed Harriman Expedition to Alaska in the summer of 1899. 

 The voyage was undertaken by the generous leader of the enterprise, as a 

 journey for recreation and enjoyment, but its far-reaching importance was 

 established by the invitation of twenty-three literary and scientific men to 

 accompany the party. The results are now being made known to the 

 world by the publication of a series of splendid volumes, beautifully 

 printed and bound, and fully illustrated with admirable plates and a 

 variety of artistic engravings. 



The entomologist of the party was Professor Trevor Kincaid, of the 

 University of Washington at Seattle. How zealously and successfully he 

 wrorked may be gathered from the fact that during the two months devoted 

 to the Expedition, a large portion of which was necessarily spent on board 

 ship in travelling from place to place, he collected about 8,000 specimens, 

 including 5,500 pinned insects and a variety of Arachnida, Myriapodaand 

 larval forms. On his return home, these collections were carefully gone 

 over and then sent to Dr. L. O. Howard, United States Entomologist, for 

 distribution to specialists for study and report. The results are now given 

 in these two volumes, and form eighteen papers by twelve well-known 

 entomological authorities. Prof. Kincaid himself furnishes a very inter- 

 esting introduction, in which he describes the localities visited, and the 

 flora and insect fauna that came under his observation, and also papers on
