The leucophores of Octopus vulgaris are much branched cells bearing, all over the surface, small clubs that contain electron-dense material of an unknown nature. Some tens of leucophores are organized to form a "sponge" in the centre of the chromatic unit, which can be elevated above the peripheral region. This central region reflects light over a broad band and may be important in camouflage. The chromatic unit also contains iridophores and chromatophores. The latter may be yellow, orange, red or black, and the different types are interspersed among one another in a regular manner. The chromatophores are disposed in a precise way with respect to the leucophores, the black ones lying above holes in the sponge. The possible significance of this arrangement for camouflage is discussed. 11 pp., 6 pls, gr. 8.

An unusual specimen of a female cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis L.) is described that was found with a large mass of black egg-case material hanging from the funnel and mantle-cavity. The animal was sexually mature but there were no eggs in the egg-casing. The possibility is discussed that a failure of timing in the egg-laying process had occurred. Associated with the egg-case material was an actinian (Aiptasia sp.). 3 pp., 1 pl., gr. 8.

Revived from the dead, gangster Victor Monroe abandons his criminal past and begins speaking of secrets old as Sumer, and quickly becomes the dictator of the United States. Miracle cures, thought projection on a screen, secret sessions of Congress, Death rays, the wrecking of Wall Street. In the later portions of the book, there follows a Japanese invasion of the West Coast, the emptying of prisons to form combat battalions, and a tirade against the World League of Religions. The auhtor's prologue describes how the book was dictated to him by a young girl: "She seemed much as other young girls of my acquaintance but possessing one distinctive feature -- her eyes. They were of the utmost brilliance and had depth and seeming knowledge unbelievable in one so young." The young girl, Niphrata the Messenger, "though men call me The Unknown," reappears to warn the heedless dictator and his cronies; Armageddon ensues. A crackpot novel of excruciating style! Uncommon.
