REVUE MYCOLOG1QUE. 
We would direct the attention of British Mycologists to the 
publication in France, under the above title, of a quarterly journal 
devoted to Mycology and Lichenology. It is edited by M. C. 
Roumeguere, and the price is twelve francs per annum. Hitherto 
it has consisted chiefly of abstracts and reprints, but it is hoped 
that when it attains better working order it will also permit 
original articles to preponderate. However, it would hardly be 
expected of us to pronounce any very decided opinion on the 
merits of a contemporary. We can only wish it success.
