 2) On some Experiments with Dragonfly Larvae. By R. J. Tillyard, M.A., 

 F.E.S. — This paper embodies the results of experiments carried out with 

 the object of showing — Ij That dragonfly larvae of certain kiiids live longer 

 than one year. An unknown Libellulid larva taken at Heathcote on Oc- 

 tober 10th, 1908, and more than halfgrown then, has lived in an aquarium 

 to the present date. It now appears fyll-fed, and may be expected to emerge 

 this season. Its age, from the egg, must be over two and a half years. 

 2) That certain dragonfly larvae can resist severe and prolonged drought. 

 Eight larvae of Synthemis eustalacta Burm., were placed in a shallow-water 

 aquarium over sand; no food given from December 25th, 1909, and water 

 allowed to evaporate. The aquarium was dry on February 2nd, and the 

 larvae were kept alive, hidden in the sand, until May 29th, a period of nearly 

 four months. The larvae were then returned to water and fed up. Seven 

 are still allive, and may be expected to emerge this season. — 3) The Haema- 

 tozoa of Australian Reptilia. JNo. 1. By T. Harvey Johnston, M.A., B.Sc,
