THE ENTOMOLOGIST’S WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER. 
of our plants. Now that this subject, as 
regards insects, is becoming daily better 
understood and more fully appreciated, 
all “ of the net and pin ” will find in every 
page matter bearing on the point which 
they would otherwise have to ransack a 
whole library in search of. In short, I 
consider the work, which contains more 
than 650 pages of very close printing, 
beautifully printed and got up by Reeve, 
not only cheap but indispensable to every 
entomologist who wishes to know the 
natural history of the objects of his 
study. — G. Wailes, Newcastle-on-Tyne. 
“A twice-told Tale.” — The ‘Zoolo- 
gist’ is the “ heavy coach ” of Entomology, 
starting only once a month, and as this 
month’s number holds out the prospect of 
its readers and buyers having the benefit 
of information already known to most of 
us who profess to travel by the ‘ Intelli- 
gencer,’ be so good as inform the Rev. J. 
Greene, who writes, “ As I do not wish 
to anticipate my friend Mr. Crewe, I 
withhold any description of the larva ” of 
Eupithecia assimilata, as well as his 
friend, that this same larva, besides being 
noticed in the * Manual,’ was described 
by M. Guenee, in his ‘ Phalenites,’ and 
figured by him (plate 2, fig. 9) from an 
original drawing now before me, not to 
mention Mr. Logan’s account of it in the 
first volume of the ‘ Intelligencer.’ By 
so doing you will probably save the 
valuable space of the ‘Zoologist’ and 
oblige A Fast Man.
