important, but the Recorder confesses that the chief point about it which 
struck him is the manifest desire of the author to tack on his name (in 
the abbreviated form of “ Pop.”) to every nomenblaturic change or addition 
suggested. Nowhere in his description is n. g., n. sp., or the like to be 
found. Fortunately for the Recorder the Acantharia do not seem to have 
been previously honoured by Popofsky’s attention, so he has felt justified 
in replacing “ Pop.” by the correct designation, so far as he was able to 
ascertain it from the context. 
Many new Haemogregarines hdve been observed, chiefly by Billet 
(21-24), Castellani & Willey (63), Nicolle (247-249), Sergent (314), 
and Souli£ (327) ; also, usually associated with new Trypanosomes, by 
Brumpt & Lebailly (50) and Lebailly (179). Lastly, a full account of 
Trypanosomes known up to the time of writing is given by Laveran & 
Mesnil (176). This work, compiled as it is very largely from original 
papers by the authors, affords a good idea of the amount of research 
bestowed by them upon these all-important parasites. 
Besides tho works on Ciliates above referred to, mention may be made 
of F aura’s papor (105) on now Opercular ice. Tho systematic list of tho 
Infusoria is, however, much shorter than last year, while the sole entry 
under Tentaculifera is that of Astrophrya, a new genus described by 
Averintzev (6).
