HISTORICAL. 9 



The Centralblatt fiir Bakteriologie und Parasitenkunde is a 

 weekly journal which has been published by Gustav Fischer, of 

 Jena, since 1887. The editors are Uhlworm, of Cassel; Loffler, at 

 present professor at Greifswald; and Leuckart, professor at Leipzig. 



A most important work for students of bacteriology is the Jahres- 

 bericht of Baumgarten, which has been published since 1885 by 

 Harald Bruhn, Braunschweig, Germany. This gives a brief abstract 

 of nearly every paper of importance relating to the subject which 

 has been published during the year.
