Miscellaneous and Reviews, 



May I, without offence, recommend a little more care on the part 

 of the Editor in the matter of correcting the press ? I do not allude 

 to the occasional misprints, of which so copious an " errata" is given 

 at p. 240, but to errors which mystify the reader beyond all bearing ; 

 thus 100 pages are dropiDed at p. 288; the following page is 189, 

 and the numbers are continued just as though nothing extraordinary 

 had happened — 190, 191, &c. In like manner Art. XXXVH. im- 

 mediately follows Art. XVL It is dangerous for those who reside 

 in glass houses to throw stones, and I am well aware of the fallibility 

 of all editors ; but these are errors of unusual magnitude, and will 

 render indexing impossible.

 No. I contains 64 pp. letter-press and three plates ; price 3s. 

 No. 2 contains 68 pp. letter-press and five plates ; price bs. 



The proprietors explain the objects of the journal in the following 

 *' Notice ":— 



"The 'Journal of Entomology' has been projected to supply 

 the want of an entomological periodical devoted to the descriptions of 

 new species, and to the geographical distribution of insects generally. 

 It is intended to figure the new or little-known forms, as far as 

 possible ; and with regard to the latter, local lists and monographs 

 will be one of its leading features. The Journal will be published at 

 intervals of three or four months, or perhaps oftener ; and the price 

 will vary according to the number of plates and the amount of letter- 

 press." 



The proprietors having selected the month of April for making 

 their d^but, their first number appeared with the following papers : — 



Art. I. On the Halticidae of the Canary Islands.' By T. Vernon 

 Wollaston, Esq., M.A., F.L.S.
