EDITORIAL NOTICE 
By order of the Committee of the Incorporated Liverpool School 
of Tropical Medicine, the series of the Reports of the School, which 
have been issued since 1899, will be followed, from January 1, 1907, 
by the Annals of Tropical Medicine and Parasitology, of which 
this is the first number. 
The Annals are issued by the Committee of the School, and will 
contain all such matter as was formerly printed in the Reports that 
is to say, accounts of the various expeditions of the School and of the 
scientific work done in its laboratories at the University of Liverpool 
and at Runcorn. Altogether twenty-one Memoirs, besides other 
works, have been published by the School since 1899, and of these 
ten, containing 519 quarto or octavo pages and 95 plates and figures, 
were published during the two years 1904 and 1905 ; and there is no 
reason to suppose that this rate of production by the workers of the 
School alone will diminish in the future. In addition, however, to 
School work, original articles from outside on any subject connected 
with Tropical Medicine or Hygiene may be published if foun 
suitable (see notice on back of cover) ; so that, in all probability, not 
less than four numbers of the Annals will be issued annually. Eac 
number will be brought out when material sufficient foi it has 
accumulated.
