I. GENERAL SUBJECTS. 
of the gut, hepatopancreas, tunic-cells, &o. ; in the nuclei as special areas 
of storage ; almost general occurrence of iron oxides in the respiratory 
tissues and organs of aquatic Invertebrates ; Schneider (636). — Pro- 
cesses of life revealed by the microscope ; Gage (224). — A. plea for 
physiological histology ; Gage (224). — Life from a physical standpoint ; 
Dolbear (153a). 
Study of osmotic phenomena in cells ; Overton (505).— Growth in 
fishes : little evidence of any limit of growth. Environment agencies 
affecting growth ; Mastermann (432). — Death of Protozoa and Metazoa 
contrasted ; Minot (449). — Revivification of Copepods and Copepod 
ova; Claus (llO). — Revivification of the Tardigrade — Macrobiotics 
macronyx — did not suoceed ; Erlanger (184). — Influence of lack 
of oxygen on cell-life ; molecular and structural changes fatal to the 
protoplasm occur; Loeb (401). — Galvanotropism of tadpoles; Waller 
(729). — Galvanotaxis ; Nagel (485), Ludloff (411). — Thermotropism of 
Protozoa ; Mendelsohn (437). — Peculiar property of blood ; the blood 
or serum of dog and newt is toxic for the spermatozoa of the animal ; 
similarly with the lymph ; Pagano (508). — Organic bases ; Ubeda y 
Correal (700a). — Organic syntheses; Meyer (445a). 
Bioorystallisation : Chun (107). — Chemical phenomena of ossification, 
CiiabriA (97, 98). 
Portions of Echinoderm skeleton arise as intracellular differentiations. 
Mesenchyme-cells not only build up, but again dissolve. Thus the larval 
skeleton is used over again; Th^el (687). 
Assimilation ; Le Dantec (383). — Food-vacuoles, critical analysis 
of Miss Greenwood’s work ; Le Dantec (384). — Physiological studies 
on Orthoptera ; Mid-gut of Orthoptera has a selective action on 
the food constituents, comparable to the action of the Vertebrate 
liver; Cuenot (125). — Lymph-glands in Nereis , &c. ; Kowalevsky 
(360). — Lymph-glands of Oligochceta ; Schneider (635). — The forma- 
tion of lymph ; Halliburton (279). — Lymphatic glands of Myrio- 
pods ; Kowalevsky (359).— Digestive processes in Coelentera, a review 
of the subject ; Hickson (307) — Transformation of fat into glycogen in 
the metamorphosis of silkworm ; Couvreur (121). — Influence of removal 
of ovaries on nutrition ; Curatolo& Tarulli (129). — On internal secre- 
tion ; thyroid, pituitary, supra-renal, &c. ; Schafer (623). — Excretion in 
Holothurians. In Apedata foreign bodies pass by migrant cells through 
ciliated funnels to skin, where they probably appear as pigment. In the 
Pedata , the migrant cells pass through the epithelium of the branchiae (?), 
and thus out; Schultz (640). — R61e of Amoebocytes in Annelids ; Raco- 
vitza (545). — Study of respiratory phenomena in silkworms ; Luciani 
& Lo Monaco (410). 
Circulation and respiration in fishes ; Scikenlein (637). 
Influence of light on animal cells increases oxidation-processes, as shown 
by change of colour in oxyhemoglobin solutions or bismuth salts. The 
reaction of the retinal elements is not exceptional, but a special case of 
general law; Quincke (513;. — Masella’s experiments on exposure to
