The Director's Report.— No. 4. 



During the summer months the Laboratory has been well filled, 

 the following gentlemen having occupied tables w addition to six of 

 those named in the Eeport of the Council (p. 360) : 



Dr. W. B. Benham, University College, London {Polychseta). 



Mr. M. F. Woodward, Normal School of Science, South Ken- 

 sington {Mollusca).

Besides these gentlemen Mr. W. T. Hughes, Mr. E. de Hamel, 

 and Mr. G. W. Tait spent a fortnight at the Laboratory in general 

 zoological study. 



The two years during which the Laboratory has been open have 

 been by no means unproductive of permanent result. In addition 

 to the papers published in this first volume of the Journal and in 

 the two numbers of the old series, which constitute in themselves a 

 serious contribution to science, those in the list following embody 

 the results of work done here, while several more are, of course, in 

 progress :
