336 Miscellaneous. 
We can approximate the dates as under :— 
Botany, 1832-33. By Fauché, Chaubard and Bory de Saint 
Vincent, and A, Brongniart. 
How much appeared in each year is not exactly ascertainable, 
but pp. 345-6 were utilized in the review in ‘ Flora,’ 1833, p. 730, 
and the concluding article in the volume by Brongniart was pub- 
lished in ‘Institute,’ tom. 1. p. 157 (Sept. 1833), ann also in Ann. 
Sci. Nat. tom. xxx. p. 168 (Oct. 1833). 
From computation it appears likely that pp. 336 or the bulk of 
the work was out in 1832. 
Zootoey. Sect. 1. Des Animaux Vertébrés: Mammiféres et Oiseaux 
(to which are paged on “Reptiles,” “Mollusques,” and “ Poly- 
piers ”’). 
No direct evidence is obtainable, but we are inclined to the 
opinion that the portion dealing with the Vertebrata all appeared in 
1833. 
The portion “ Mollusques and Polypiers” we take to be 1835, 
for on pp. 231-2 of the Partie Géologique, which was published 
in Dec. 1833, there is a list of shells by Deshayes with names (only) 
of new species and references to [sér. i1.] pls. ivil.; in the “ Mol- 
lusques ” these species are fully described, but the plates are there 
cited as [sér, lii.] xx.—xxvi., and though in the Natural History 
Museum copy these plates are not re-lettered, the latter numeration 
is assigned to them in the ‘Ordre des Planches” in the Atlas 
(1835). Moreover, the author refers throughout to the first edition 
of Lamarck’s ‘ Hist. nat. Anim. sans Vert.,’ and not to the second 
edition, edited as to the Mollusca by himself, which portion began 
to appear in 1835 (vol. vi. was presented to the Paris Academy 
30th March, ‘ Institut,’ tom. ii. p. 101). On the other hand, the 
first one of peste: new species from the Morea that is cited in 
Lamarck,.ed. 2, is Terebratula en (Expéd. Moree, tom. ii. pt. 1, 
joo 8 Avatiaa, sans Vert. éd. 2, tom. vii. 1836, p. 359, which 
volume was presented to the Panis "Acad. 13 Jan. of ‘that year). 
As will be evident from the table above given, this section could 
not have begun before livr. 31 (Dec. 1834), and since there is only 
text enough to form three parts, though the whole work was not 
presented to the Paris Academy till 16 May, 1836 (Compt. Rend. 
tom. ii. p. 44), we incline, from the evidence above given, to 1835. 
Zootoaix. Sect. 2. Des Animaux Articulés. 
Applying the rule of 6 sheets to a part, the first six parts would 
contain pp. 1-288, or as far as the end of ‘“ Lépidoptéres,” where 
there is a manifest break in the text; and since pts. 5 & 6 were 
presented to the Soc. Ent. France at their first meeting (9th Jan.) 
1833, they were assumably out in 1832, which is the date we take, 
the remaining text being 1833. 
Gotoain and Minératocie. By Puillon de Boblaye and Virlet. 
From the table it is seen this appeared :— 
Pp. 1-256. 1833. 
257-375. 1834. 
[To be continued.)
