(5) The choice of the place of meeting and the election of 

 the President of the third International Congress of Entomology. 



(i) Entomological Committee on Nomenclature. 



The First International Congress of Entomology at Brussels 

 charged the Executive Committee with the organisation of an 

 Entomological Committee on Nomenclature, and we lay before 

 you to-day a list of entomologists who are willing to serve on 

 that Committee. Before submitting this list to the General 

 Meeting for consideration, it is our duty to refer to an amendment 

 proposed by Dr. L. O. Howard on Tuesday in the Section on 

 Nomenclature, and carried at that meeting. The amendment 

 is to the effect that the Resolution brought before the Congress 

 by the Entomological Society of London, and discussed at the 

 meeting on Monday, be referred to the Executive Committee for 

 consideration, a report to be laid before this General Meeting. 

 The Executive Committee agrees with the various propositions 

 contained in the Resolution of the Entomological Society of London 

 apart from a point of procedure, but considers it expedient to 

 submit to you a separate Resolution for each proposition, instead 

 of embodying the various propositions in one single Resolution. 

 We have to deal with : 



{a) The organisation of National Committees on Entomo- 

 logical Nomenclature in the various countries ; 



(b) The election of an International Entomological Committee 

 on Nomenclature ; and 



(c) The adequate representation of Entomology on the 

 International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature. 



The Executive Committee is of opinion that, in order to 

 render the scheme proposed w^orkable, the members of the 

 International Committee must be elected by the Entomological 

 Congresses, while the National Committees should be appointed 

 by the Entomological Societies of the respective countries. 

 This we think will meet the views expressed in the Resolution of 

 the Entomological Society of London. 



(i) The Executive Committee proposes for election as 

 members, of the International Entomological Committee 

 on Nomenclature the following Entomologists :
