Zoe. 



One of the youngest, and one of the most interesting, of our natural 

 history periodicals is 'Zoe: a Biological Journal,' published in San 

 Francisco. Vol. I, was issued monthly, (March, 1S90 — -Feb., 1891); Vol. 

 II has appeared as a quarterly, dated April, 1S91 — Jan., 1892, the real 

 date of publication being sometimes two months or so later Much of its 

 space is devoted to botany, but ornithology too comes in for a large 

 share of its pages. We note the following (Nos. 2396-2425).
