review text: Analytic formulas for Rényi's entropy and Song's measure for various univariate, continuous distributions are derived. Results for Shannon's entropy are obtained as special cases, many of which were given earlier by \textit{A. C. G. V. Lazo} and \textit{P. N. Rathie} [IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory 24, 120--122 (1978; Zbl 0371.94042)].
