Abstract
THE rapidity of scientific development in the new Italian Empire is well illustrated by the subject of aquatic biology. Only three years have elapsed since the conquest was complete, and yet the recently formed Direzione Superiore Affari Colonizzazione e Lavoro has already set up an Ufficio Idrobiologia e Pesca at Addis Ababa, under the direction of Prof. P. Parenzan, and a considerable amount of preliminary research has taken place on the inland waters of the former Ethiopia. These are described in the first number of a new official journal entitled Bollettino di Idrobiologia, Caccia e Pesca.It is a well-appointed publication, containing papers on fish, their importance in the food of native peoples, parasites and pathology, and accounts of other aspects of the biology of fresh waters, including the fish-eating birds and Mollusca.
