Abstract
IN a recent notice of “A Junior Course of Practical Zoology” (NATURE, vol. xxxv. p. 506) the reviewer expresses surprise that anyone should, in a text-book for students, “discard the ophthalmic somite of their seniors, and press the telson into the service,” a procedure on which he comments thus:—“The introduction of so sweeping a change into a book for juniors, without due comment is, under these circumstances, a false step, especially when it is considered that the precise converse is stated in all other books current.”
