Mallophaga and Myriapoda, and Hawaiian Thysanoptera, by 

 Mr. R. S. Bagnall. 



On Saturday morning the great majority of the members 

 left Oxford on a special trnin for Tring, at the invitation 

 of the Hon. Walter Rothschild, where a procession of a lc;en 

 coaches conveyed the party from the railway station to his 

 zoological museum. Private and public rooms were alike 

 thrown widely open to our inspection. While the public ex- 

 hibition rooms, containing an admirable collection of typi-al 

 animals of all groups were appreciated, the members were nat- 

 urally chiefly interested in the study collections of insects, now 

 limited almost entirely to the Lepidoptera, estimated at one 

 million specimens. A wonderful series of the genus Omithop- 

 tcra was specially set out for examination. In passing, it should 

 be mentioned that the other study collection consists of a 

 vast series of bird-skins. 



A luncheon in Victoria Hall, Tring, a group photograph, a 

 walk through the gardens and park of the estate, in which 

 last rheas, deer and kangaroos roam at large, followed. Then 

 the Congress, after hearty thanks to Mr. Rothschild for his 

 hospitality, dispersed with best hopes and wishes for reunion 

 in Vienna in 1915. 



Those who were present at the Congress, in addition to 

 those mentioned in the preceding program, were :
