Abstract
INTEREST in the study of animal behaviour (ethology) is growing rapidly. The results of comparative behaviour studies have in the past been scattered throughout a number of periodicals and other publications. The German Zeitschrift fur Tierpsy-chologie was hitherto the only European journal devoted exclusively to the publication of modern behaviour studies ; and during its short existence, it demonstrated clearly that a special journal of this kind fulfils a most important function in stimulating and promoting the study of the subject with which it deals; but its future is now in doubt. It has accordingly been decided to found a new international j ournal of comparative ethology to be called Behaviour.
