Abstract
IN November there appeared the first number of the Cape Naturalist, which is designed to increase the interest of non-technical readers in Nature and archaeology in South Africa. A striking cover reproduces the flower of Stapelia, the colour and carrion -like odour of which attracts blowflies which pollinate the flowers, and sometimes, deceived by the smell, deposit their eggs upon the petals. The articles are short and varied enough to make a general appeal (Pp. 24, price Id. post free, from Mrs. Stephens, Alma Road, Rosebank, Cape Town.). The magazine is issued by the Cape Natural History Club, and should it meet a demand it will be issued quarterly, or possibly in timemonthly.
