Summary of investigations and experiments made by 
several persons, leading to the conclusion that fly fungus 
(empusa muscae), common mould (mucor mucedo), yeast 
fungus (hormiscium cerevisiae) and achlya prolifera, are 
different developments of the same species, and that insects 
sprinkled with or fed on beer mash or yeast fungus will be- 
come infested with spores and will be killed, besides com- 
municating the disease to other insects. Hagen’s original 
contribution to the subject is the suggestion that yeast fun- 
gus should be used as the propagator of the disease.

“Mr. A. R. Wallace, in his review of Mr. Allen’s ‘The 
colour sense’ (Nature, v. xix, p. 501), has been misled in 
supposing the fossil insect from the Belgian coal-fields, 
namely breyeria borinensis, may be a moth. ... Thus we 
remain without any zoological evidence that would tend to 
prove the exist2nce of flowering plants in the carbonifer- 
ous age.”’ G: D. (1665)
