Abstract
LIEF. 30 of “Die Tierwelt der Nord- und Ostsee” contains a mixed bag of monographs, dealing with nemertine worms (Hermann Friedrich), halophile and halobionic Hemiptera (Hakon Lindberg), and the Anthozoa included in the sea anemones and Alcyon-aria (F. Pax). Short diagnoses of the characters of species and of their distribution are supplemented by accounts of the morphology, physiology, development, variation and biology in general of larger groups. Parts of this ambitious and very useful work have been appearing at the rate of slightly less than three a year since 1925, and there are still many to follow.
