ENTOMOGENOUS FUNGI. 
At length arrangements have been made for the publication of 
this work, which has been so long delayed. It will bear the title 
of “ Vegetable Wasps and Plant Worms : A Popular History of 
Entomogenous Fungi, or Fungi Parasitic upon Insects,” by M. 
C. Cooke, with numerous illustrations, uniform with the same 
author’s “ Toilers in the Sea.” The whole of the letter-press is 
already in type, and it is only the illustrations which block the 
way. This is the almost universal “Bogie Man” at which pub- 
lishers shudder, looking upon the cost as an unknown quantity. 
Such a work has never been published in this country before, 
although it has been much inquired after and desired, both by 
mycologists and entomologists, each of whom have an interest in 
it, but from different points of view. It is not anticipated that the 
cost will exceed six shillings, or that its issue will be delayed 
many weeks.
