ZOOLOGY. 



Zoological explorations have been carried on during the 

 past year in connection with the various expeditions sent 

 out to observe the transit of Venus. Of these the labors of 

 the Rev. A. E. Eaton and Dr. Kidder, on Kurguelen Island, 

 have brought out the most interesting results. 



During the past year also the zoology of the voyages of 

 the Erebus and Terror, which has been unfinished for twenty 

 years, has been completed. 



In this country the corps of naturalists gathered at the 

 headquarters of the United States Fish Commission, located 

 for the summer season at Wood's Hole, have produced good 

 results; and the naturalists connected with Hayden's and also 

 Wheeler's exploring parties have met with excellent success. 



Dr. Dohrn's zoological station at Naples was formally in- 

 augurated in April. This laboratory has been already used 

 by a number of English, Dutch, German, Russian, and Ital- 

 ian naturalists, and valuable researches published. A Rus- 

 sian naturalist of distinction, Miclucho-Maclay, has founded 

 a small zoological station near Singapore. While in this 

 country the Anderson School of Natural History has been 

 abandoned for want of funds, the idea of summer schools 

 for science-teachers has taken root, and during the past sum- 

 mer a successful session was held at Peoria, Illinois, and an- 

 other at Cleveland, Ohio, under the name of the " Kirtland 

 Summer School of Natural History." 



Several new journals of especial value have been started 

 in Germany : one is the Morphologisches Jahrbuch, edited 

 by Professor Gegenbaur, of Heidelberg, and the Zeitschrift 

 fiir Anatomie unci Entwickelungs-Geschichte (Journal of 

 Anatomy and History of Development), edited by W. His 

 and W. Braune, Professors of Anatomy at the University of 

 Leipsic.
