Abstract
THE first and second memoirs contained in Vol. XVII. of the Zoological Reports of the Voyage of the Challenger were reviewed in NATURE two weeks ago (p. 26). The third memoir, the subject of the present notice, formed the last piece of scientific work of the distinguished naturalist to whom the preparation of the Report on the Polyzoa had been intrusted. During a period of illness and suffering under which the energies of most men would have broken down, Mr. Busk still laboured to accomplish the task which he had undertaken, and it was only a few days before his death that he was enabled to bring it to a conclusion.

Part XXX. "Report on the Polyzoa—Part II. The Cyclostomata, Ctenostomata, and Pedicellinea." By George Busk, &c. (Published by Order of Her Majesty's Government, 1886.)
