Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Journal of Microscopy and Natural Science, 1896, Vol. 15
According to our usual custom, we feel impelled to write a few words concerning the volume, which forms Vol. VI. of the Third Series of the International Journal of Microscopy and Natural Science, just finished.
The standard of excellence to which the Journal has attained during the last few years has, we believe, been well kept up in the present volume. As so many papers of scientific value have appeared in its pages, we hardly know which to mention without giving the whole list; but we must certainly point to the series of papers on "British Hydrachnidae," by Mr. Chas. D. Soar, as being of the greatest service to those of our readers who are interested in this subject. Among other papers of interest we must mention our late President, Mr. Bryan's, account of Prof. Miall's researches on "The Origin of Insect Transformations," Mr. W. Falconer's article on "Some Adaptation of Water-Plants to their Environment," Messrs. Wager and Walker's paper "On the Structure of the Root," Miss Lily H. Huie's paper "On some Protein Crystalloids, etc.," Mr. C. D. Hardcastle's article on "The Origin and History of Varieties of Agate," etc.
