Excerpt from The Philippine Journal of Science, 1914, Vol. 9: Section A, Chemical and Geological Sciences and the Industries Bulacan, and Bataan Provinces and in parts of others; for example, Zambales, Cavite, and Batangas, the dry season is very pronounced. The humidity which regulates plant transpiration is only second in importance to rainfall. There is not the same marked variation in the mean humidity of the eastern and western zones as in the rainfall, but a close association of the two factors is evident.

Excerpt from The Philippine Journal of Science, 1916, Vol. 11: Section D, General Biology, Ethnology, and Anthropology In many Of the early collections of Philippine insects exact localities were not recorded. The term Manila or Manille in many cases was used synonymously with Philippines. This erroneous use of the term Manila as a geographic designation was due in part to insufficient data supplied by collectors and in part to the fact that the record of a more precise locality was not considered of importance. Most of the botanical as well as zoological specimens which are recorded as from Manila did in fact come from Manila, but many of them were collected a long way from that city. The use of Philippines as a locality is also misleading and is too indefinite for a region comprising some three thousand islands, where in numerous instances species are exceedingly local in occurrence. In view of those facts an exact record for each species, if represented in the Bureau of Science collection, is given in the following order: Island, province, town, mountain or river, number, and collector. The names of islands are printed in capitals and small capitals. The numbers are those of accessions of specimens in the Bureau of Science collection. The names of collectors are in italics. An asterisk following the name of a species indicates that the species is known to be of economic importance, and that some thing about it is to be found in the appendix to this catalogue. A dagger indicates that the species is represented in my private collection. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Philippine Journal of Science, 1918, Vol. 13: Section B, Tropical Medicine A curious difference was Observed ih' the tendency to develop ment of ova in the two types. In 3 out Of 5 cages and in per cent of the total number dissected type Giles showed ova well advanced in development, Often as early as the sixth day after feeding, while well-developed ova never appeared in type inde finitus. In 4, at least, Of the 5 pairs males were included with the females in cages. Some further Observations on these two types and on other types Of rossi will be made in connection with certain tables and in the summary at the close Of this paper. From the compara tive Observations on the two types there seems to be substantial evidence for regarding them as distinct forms, biologically and morphologically as well, even though they may not be distinguish able ih the adult stage. Further the question may be raised whether type Giles of Malaya may not be a different form from A. Rossi Giles Of India. III View Of the great variability Of the Malayan type, its restricted breeding places, and its suscepti bility to infection with malarial parasites, it may be at least a biological variant, its characteristics dependent in some measure on its topographical environment.
