1096 The American Naturalist. [December, 
Zoological News.—Three new species of Annelids from the New 
Jersey coast are described and figured by Mr. J. P. Moore. Clymnella 
elongata, a tube dweller; Eulalia lobulata, so-called from the lobulated 
appearance of the peculiar tentacular appendages; and Eracia brevi- 
cornis. (Contributions Zool. Lab. Univ. Penna., Vol. I, 1893. 
In a report on the Aquatic Invertebrate Fauna of Wyoming and 
Montana, Mr. S. A. Forbes describes and figures several new species 
and varieties. The list comprises 5 Cladocera, 1 Ostracoda, 8 Cope- 
poda, 2 Rotifera and 1 Protozoa. The investigation of this fauna was 
made with a view to stocking the lakes of Yellowstone Park with game- 
fishes. During the years 1890 and ’91, 66 localities were visited, and 
the material gathered amounted to 460 collection numbers. (Dull. U. 
S. Fish Commissioners for 1891). 
VERTEBRATA.—The Zool. Dept. of the Michigan Agri. Exp. Station 
has issued an illustrated list of the Birds of that State prepared by Mr. 
A.J. Cook. The author has adopted the arrangement of the Am. 
Ornith. Union, and has appended, in parenthesis, the number of the 
species as given in Coues’ Key and Check-List. A résumé of the spe- 
cies show that the bird fauna of Michigan ineludes the Boreal, the 
Transition and the Sonoran. The large lakes attract many birds that 
are usually maritime, while the prairies and woodlands in the southern 
part of the State afford a habitat for the prairie birds and a long 
list of woodland warblers. All species of doubtful occurrence have 
been excluded from the list. So far as observation permits, the author 
has given the food babits of the species described. An extensive bibli- 
ography appended to the introduction adds to its value to the Ornith- 
ologist. 
Mr. Gerrit S. Miller calls attention to the rediscovery of the gopher 
—Thomomys bulbivorus—at Beaverton, Oregon. This animal, de- 
scribed sixty years ago by Richardson under the name Diplostoma 
bulbivorum, has been entirely unknown to naturalists until the present 
day. (Proceeds. Biol. Soc. Wash., Aug., 1893). t
