 cents. 



This work contains a series of analytical tables by means of 

 which the family to which any North American insect belongs can 

 be determined. Under the head of each family the characteristics 

 of the family, both as regards structure and habits, are given, and 

 the more common species are described. It is profusely illustrated.

 Science Teaching. No. III. Insecta. D. C. Heath 

 & Co., Boston, 1890. Price, $1.25. 



A very useful work for teachers.

Packard, A. S. — Entomology for Beginners.

 Peripatus, by A. Sedgwick ; Myriapods, by F. G. 

 Sinclair; Insects, Part I, by David Sharp. Mac- 

 millan & Co., London and New York, 1895. Price, 

 $4. 



This, in many respects, is the best text-book on entomology yet 

 published. The beginning student who wishes to study North 

 American insects will find Comstock's Manual better suited to his 

 needs, but this volume of The Cambridge Natural History should 



publications relating to zoology in all its branches that have appeared 

 during the year preceding the date of the volume. The first volume was 

 for the year 1864.
