Abstract
THIS work, notwithstanding its title, is not a popular book, but a serious scientific treatise on Cicadas. Dr. Myers seems to have read and digested practically everything written pertaining to these insects, besides carrying out a considerable amount of personal investigation of their structure and behaviour.

By Dr. J. G. Myers. Pp. xix + 304 + 8 plates. (London: George Routledge and Sons, Ltd., 1929.) 21s. net.
