logical literature might be more advantageously filled with 

 other matter. 



The Editors have therefore concluded to discontinue, after 

 this number, the department of Entomological Literature as at 

 present established, but we trust that contributors will furnish 

 (as not a few have done in the past) notices of important and 

 interesting publications on entomological subjects. We hope 

 that this decision will meet with the approval of the majority 

 of our readers.

Under the above head it is intended to note papers received at the Academy of

 noted. Contributions to the anatomy, physiology and embryology of insects, however, 

 whether relating to American or exotic species, will be recorded. The numbers in heavy- 

 faced type refer to the journals, as numbered in the following list, in which the papers 

 are published ; * denotes that the paper in question contains descriptions of new North 

 American forms. The titles of all papers will be quoted in the original and not translated.
