Abstract
THE present work appeared in instalments from 1903 to 1909 in the Entomologist's Record, and in its present form will be extremely useful as an introduction to the subject, and as a tourist's guide, especially as its small size renders it more convenient than Brunner von Wattenwyl's work on European Orthoptera, or that of Tümpel's on those of Central Europe. Dr. Burr's work includes all the countries west of (and including) the neighbourhood of Vienna. For eastern Europe we have (for those who can use it) the great Russian expansion of Tümpel's book by Jacobsen and Bianchi, which includes all the Orthoptera of central and eastern Europe, and Palæarctic Asia.
A Synopsis of the Orthoptera of Western Europe.
By Dr. Malcolm Burr. Pp. 160. (London: Oliver Janson, 1910.) Price 3s.
