ZOOPHYTOLOGY. 
In tlie '^Transactions of the Tyneside Naturalists' Field 
Club' has been published a " Catalogue of the Zoophytes of 
Northumberland and Durham/^ drawn up by Mr. J. Alder, 
whose unwearied industry and well-known powers of minute 
observation we are glad to see thus devoted to the subject 
of Zoophytology. The work, as it may be termed, is not a 
mere catalogue of the Sertularian Zoophytes and Polyzoa 
found upon the coasts of Northumberland and Durham, but
