The noble-souled and ill-fated Maximilian, whilom Emperor of Mexico, in his happier days, when an Austrian archduke, made a scientific expedition to Brazil, the fruits of which, especially in natural history, have been mainly published in his Reise nach Brasilien. The present sumptuous volume, in elephant folio, which has just been received by the library of the Herbarium, is the latest and, doubtless, the last of them. It illustrates the plants of the Arum family, which were brought from Brazil by Maximilian, or otherwise introduced into cultivation under his auspices. It is posthumous in more than one sense; for the original editor, Schott, the distinguished monographer of the order, died two years before Maximilian came to his sad end; and Kotschy, Reisseck, and Feure, who undertook to complete it, have also died, and the volume is at length brought out by Dr. Peyritsch. Besides the frontispiece, giving a view of Aroideous and other tropical vegetation, there are forty-two plates in colors, of unrivalled magnificence; the details and microscopical dissections, all of masterly execution, are also colored; and the whole coloring CRIMSON.

A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF FOSSIL INSECTS. BY SAMUEL H. SCUDDer. Up to the present time, scarcely any formal attempt has been made to collect separately the titles of papers on fossil insects. Several authors, in general essays on this branch of palaeontology, have, indeed, referred to the older or the principal works upon the subject, as Giebel in his Insecten der vorwelt, Oustalet in his first essay on the fossil insects of France, and lately, and more particularly, Goss in his review of our knowledge of fossil insects. The principal sources of our information, however, have been portions of the scientific bibliographies of zoology; thus Carus and Engelmann, in 1861, in their Bibliotheca zoologica (II. 1508-10), give two pages and a half to this subject with about sixty titles; while Hagen, a year or two later, by means of the subject index to his Bibliotheca entomologica refers to about one hundred and fifty articles, scattered throughout his work. The following list was originally made for private use, to accompany a slip catalogue of the described fossil insects of the world, prepared for comparing the ancient insect fauna with the modern, and that of the Old World with that of the New. Thinking it of more than private value, the entries have been accompanied by brief descriptive notes, and are here published as a tolerably complete list, and one that will at least suggest the extent and to some degree the nature of the literature upon this subject. Although more than double the extent of Hagen's list (which did not include Arachnida and Myriapoda) this is no proof of an increased development of or interest in this branch of scientific work within the past fifteen years; indeed, it is doubtful whether there is now as much activity as in the previous fifteen years when the works of Heer were opening the wealth of material at hand. The multiplication of periodical literature of late years has brought in its train a host of minor papers, many of them wholly popular in character, which. while they multiply titles, do not materially add to our actual knowledge. All of these the careful bibliographer must notice, and these have unfortunately enhanced the labor of preparing, and increased the extent of this list, without corresponding advantage. All papers here quoted have been personally examined unless noted to the contrary; and, with rare exceptions, will be found in the libraries of this vicinity. Although not properly belonging here, I have added references to articles treating of insects in copal. The arrangement under the authors is chronological. Additions to this bibliography would be very welcome, and will be inserted in an appendix. Agassiz, L. See Buckland, W. Allen, Grant. The colour sense; its origin and development.
