EDITORIAL NOTICE 
By order of the Committee of the Incorporated Liverpool School 
of Tropical Medicine, the series of the Reports of the School, which 
had been issued since 1899, were followed, from Januaiy 1, I 9°7> 
by the Annals of Tropical Medicine and Parasitology, of which this 
is the first number of the fourth volume. 
Altogether twenty-one Memoirs, besides other works, were 
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. 
The Annals are issued by the Committee of the School, and will 
contain all such matter as was formerly printed in the Reports—t at 
is to say, accounts of the various expeditions of the School and of t le 
scientific work done in its laboratories at the University of Liverpo 
and at Runcorn. In addition, however, to School work, ongina 
articles from outside on any subject connected with ropica 
Medicine or Hygiene may be published if found suitable (see notice 
on back of cover); so that, in all probability, not less than our 
numbers of the Annals will be issued annually. Each number wi 
he brought out when material sufficient for it has been accumulated.
