MEETINGS. 



VI. A meeting shall be held in each year at the place of meeting 

 appointed by the American Association for the Advancement of Science ; 

 it shall commence at 2 : 30 p. m. on the day before the meeting of the 

 American Association for the Advancement of Science, and be continued 

 throughout that evening ; further meetings may be held as time will permit 

 •during the week following. 



The following resolutions were also unanimously passed : 



Resolved, That the members of the American Entomological Society 

 and the Entomological Society of Ontario, together with all other persons 

 interested in entomological science, be cordially invited to attend and take 

 part in the proceedings. 



Resolved, That the secretary be requested to publish notices of the 

 meeting in such periodicals devoted to natural history, and especially in 

 those devoted to entomology as are published on the continent ; and 

 further, that the members be requested to bring with them at the annual 

 reunions specimens for exchange and exhibition, and especially types of 

 species that they may have described during the year. 



At a subsequent meeting of the Club, the following officers were 

 elected : President, Dr. John L. LeConte, Philadelphia, Pa.; Vice Presi- 

 dent, Samuel H. Scudder, Cambridge, Mass.; Secretary, Chas. V. Riley, 

 St. Louis, Mo. We feel sure that under such able direction, the Entomo- 

 logical Club of the A. A. A. S. will prosper, and be the means of stimulating 

 many to increased effort, and thus greatly advance the interests of our 

 favorite study.

 we furnish the following list: Dr. John L. LeConte, Philadelphia, Pa.; 

 Dr. J. G. Morris, Baltimore, Md.; Prof. S. S. Haldeman, Chickis, Pa.;
