Prof. Dumeril has commenced the publication of a catalogue 
of the rich collection of Batrachians in the Paris Museum, of 
which the first part, containing the Caecilians, has appeared. 
He continues the history of this branch of Herpetology from 
the period of the publication of the Erpetologie g^n^rale,^ and 
gives diagnoses of the genera and species. The Paris Museum 
contains 14 species of Csecilians, one of which is new ; the 
heads and scales of several species are figured. '
