Abstract
THIS new periodical is designed to afford a means of publication for memoirs on systematic zoology. It is named in honour of C. J. Temminck (1778-1858), one of the most distinguished naturalists that Holland has produced and the first director of the great Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie in Leyden. Its scientific standing is assured by the fact that the editor is the present director of the museum, Dr. H. Boschma, while the name of the publisher, E. J. Brill, is a guarantee of typographical and technical excellence. Unlike most journals of the kind, it will appear only in bound volumes, of which one or two, each of some 320 pages, will appear annually.

a Journal of Systematic Zoology. Edited by Prof. Dr. H. Boschma. Vol. 1. Pp. v + 320 + 9 plates. (Leiden: E. J. Brill, 1936.) 13.50 fl.
