Perkins (1149-1154) and others. They include a great deal of matter of 
interest to the Naturalist as well as to the Economist. Mr Washburn’s 
(1577) plan of devoting an annual Economic report to the insects of one 
Order will prove of value if completed, as it would soon provide a Manual 
of Economic entomology for the State, in place of the desultory repetitions 
that now abound in this department of Entomology. This system he says 
was inaugurated by his predecessor. The part published this year is a 
good brief guide to the study of Diptera. 
Schuchert & Buckman (1353) have promulgated a system of nomen* 
clature of types, which is unnecessarily complex, owing to their having 
confounded three categories, under the term type. 
Handlirsch has given us an interesting sketch of Brauer’s scientific 
career (724). • 
The Recorder has nowhere met with a new entomological periodical in 
Bohemian called Casopis Cesk4 Spolecnosti entomologicke. An account 
of its contents for the year 1905 is given in Zool. Zentrlbl. 1905, p. 809. 
The question of “ publication ” is one that calls for serious consideration. 
Does the printing and selling of two or three copies constitute of itself 
publication? And if not, where is the line to be drawn between this and 
an authoritative list of recognised channels of communication between 
Zoologists? The number of doubtful publications is now so great that 
every Recorder would be glad to know that they are not to be encouraged, 
as he finds it impossible to get a sight of many such.
