Abstract
A useful and interesting booklet with succinct and lucid explanations of thousands of common terms, for which one can wish a wide circulation. For the elementary student the present book in attractive type and format will no doubt suffice. A few slips may be noted in passing for the sake of the expected second edition. Entymological is explicable but unfortunate misprint with which to conclude the preface. Thorax should be included to help explain Acrothoracica; ictfor Ictalurus; dextrfor ambidextrous; dytdoes not quite mean an inhabitant (p. 30) but rather one who creeps into, dives into, or burrows into; anax and not onax is the word for king; but these things are trifles.
