The Club collection has progressed favourably during the 

 year, although it does not show up so well apparently. The reason 

 is that mostly insects were collected and owing to the quantity 

 and difficulty in naming, these have not yet been placed on 

 exhibition, but it is hoped that this may be done in the course of 

 the ensuing twelve months. Through the exertions of Mr. 

 A. B. Carr a fine specimen of Galictis barbara was added to 

 the Mammals to which Mr. Caracciolo added 8 new ones viz. : 

 6 Muridce, 1 Didelphys trinitatis and 1 Cyclothurus didactylus.
