A Synopsis of the Orthoptera of Western Europe.. — By Malcolm 

 Burr. London, 1910. 160 pages. Oliver Janson, 44 Great Russell 

 Street, W. C. Price 3s. 6d. 



This most useful handbook first appeared in parts in the Entomolo- 

 gist's Record and Journal of Variation, forty-three installments having 

 been published between 1903 and 1909. In the present little volume 

 the matter is presented as first published with several pages of addenda 

 dealing with corrections of classification and nomenclature and certain 

 additional more recently described species. 



The treatment is concise, yet full enough to serve the purpose of 

 the work, which the author says "does not claim to be more than a 

 pocket-handbook for the use of collectors in the field."
