The Wesley Naturalist. — Monthly Journal of the 

 Wesley Scientific Society, edited by Rev. W. H. Dallinger, 

 LL.D., F.R.S., &c., Rev. W. Spiers, M.A., F.G.S., &c., and 

 Rev. H. Friend. F.L.S. — London : T. Woolmer, 66, Paternoster 

 Row, E.G.— Monthly 6d.— No. 5, July 1887. 



This periodical, which we understand is more especially 

 aimed to become a means of inter-commuuication among 

 Scientists of the Wesleyan denomination, is full of varied and 

 clever articles by well-known authors. In Conchology there is 

 a short, general account of the Pteropoda, by Rev. C. Craw- 

 shaw. There is given on the last pages a list of Referees who 

 offer their services to the less experienced collectors. The 

 Conchological Referee is Rev. C. Crawshaw, Falmouth. 



The Naturalist's Monthly. — A Journal for Nature- 

 Lovers and Nature-Thinkers, edited by Dr. J. W. Williams, 

 M.A., and published by Walter Scott, 24, Warwick Lane, E.G. 

 — Monthly 6d. 



This is a new monthly, and two numbers have already 

 appeared. The scope of the work is very wide, embracing in 

 the parts already issued a lengthy and interesting contribu- 

 tion on the " Mollusca of Guernsey and Herm," by Brockton 

 Tomlin. Mr. Geo. Roberts supplies " The Snails and slugs of 

 my garden," and Mr. H. E. Quilter "The origin and History 

 of Freshwater Faunas," in which the mollusca have frequent 

 mention. In addition to these articles, specially interesting to 

 ourselves, there are contributions by Rev. Dr. Dallinger and 

 others, bearing upon almost every branch of Science. Amongst 

 the papers may be mentioned " The Pathology of the Celandine," 

 " The Evolution of the Fishing Hook," " Binary Suns," 

 " Biography of Darwin," " A chapter on the Centipedes and 

 Millipedes," &c., &c. The proceedings of the Learned Societies 

 are well reported, and there are numerous items of current 

 news and reports of captures.
