The author describes the luminosity of the Glowworm in both 
its larval and perfect states, and particularly describes and figures 
the minute structure of the luminous organs, which, he says, 
consist of laminas composed of grouped epithelial cells. He re- 
gards them as glandular organs, the function of which is to 
secrete a luminous matter — in this, as in some other particulars, 
differing in opinion from Kolliker. 
De Marseul republishes, from the Horfie Soc. Ent. Ross. vol. iv., the de- 
scriptions of new species by Morawitz and Solsky (L’Abeille, v. pp. 276-287). 
Under the title of “ Arclu^ologie Entomologique,’’ De Marseul commences 
the publication of descriptive memoirs of rather old date, but, which from 
various causes, arc not very accessible to entomologists. The foiirtli Livraison 
of L’Abeille, tome v., is occupied by the first portion of these papers; and 
this, although published in July 1808, as part of tome v., bears the following 
signature, ^G7Abeille, vi. 1807,” so that the editor probably intends to 
make a separate volume of these reprints. The published portion consists 
of 72 pages, and includes Waltl’s descriptions of new Coleoptera from Anda- 
lusia &c., published in 1885, and his catalogue and descriptions of Turkish Co- 
leoptera, from the ‘ Isis,’ 1838, the latter not completed. 
Kraatz publishes (Berliner ent. Zeitschr. 1868, pp. 283-304) a series of 
notes on German Coleoptera, supplementary to and elucidatory of his cata-
