THE GULF FAUNA AND FLORA BULLETIN
Will be issued as a bi-monthly from the Louisiana Industrial Institute Press, and edited by writers on biology. It will be made a bulletin of original research, and be kept in close touch with all science societies of the Gulf section, most especially with the Louisiana State Biological Station, soon to be opened. As the name implies, the Bulletin will be devoted to the biological interests of the Gulf section. It aims to take the place of no other publication, but, on the other hand, hopes to encourage the increased circulation of biological literature, and the unification of the interests of working biologists generally.
The editors invite long or short articles; catalogues of animals or plants; sketches of past work of societies or individuals; reviews of books or other scientific publications. Articles too short for extended or general treatment, or papers too long or technical for semi-popular treatises, are especially invited. In short, the aim is to make a bulletin rather than a popular science journal.
The following are some of the articles now ready for publication:
Catalogue of Reptiles of Arkansas; History of Louisiana Botany; The Louisiana Gulf Biological Station; The Louisiana Society of Naturalists; A Bill before Congress for the Creation of a Government Biological Station and Fish Hatchery on the Louisiana Coast; Review of the Proceedings of the National Fishery Congress; Some Special Features of Avery's Island; The Behavior of Birds around their Nests or Young.
The size of the Bulletin will be 81/2 × 10 inches. Each number will contain not less than thirty pages, six numbers constituting a volume. Subscription, $2.50 per volume. The date of issue may be irregular, each number being held till sufficient original matter be obtained to warrant an issue. We invite comments and criticisms, as well as contributions and subscriptions, from biologists.
