To Secretaries of Local Natural History Societies.— The Editor desires 

 to acknowledge with thanks the receipt of odd parts of the ' Transactions ' and 

 ' Proceedings ' of various local Natural History Societies, which have been for- 

 warded to him "for review," and to state that, owing to the large and increasing 

 number of such periodicals, it has been found irapos.sible to notice any of them. 

 The space available for reviews in this Journal is extremely limited, and it would 

 be invidious to make selections where all are striving towards the self-same end— 

 the promotion of the study of Zoolog;^-.
