Abstract
THE always welcome “Naples Jahresbericht” appears, as usual, well up to time, and its familiar features remain unchanged. Purely taxonomic papers are not included in the programme, but this limitation has been generously interpreted by some of the recorders. Where we have been able to test the lists we have found them full and accurate, and many of the summaries are models of terseness and clearness. If we look at the first section we are at once struck with the rapidly increasing number of important researches on the Protozoa; if we look at the last section we are similarly impressed with the number of papers dealing with Mendelian phenomena. The indefatigable editor, Dr. Paul Mayer, is responsible for the reports on Protozoa, Bryozoa, Brachiopoda, on part of the Arthropoda, and on general biology—truly a heavy piece of work for a man who does so much else. To him and to his collaborateurs we offer in the name of zoologists our hearty thanks.
