faz, NEW YORK ZOOLOGICAL SOCIETY 
An exchange with the Philadelphia Aquarium brought to 
New York 21 fine specimens of the calico bass. 
The U. S. Bureau of Fisheries and the New York Conser- 
vation Commission provided eggs of seven different kinds of 
fishes for the Aquarium hatchery. The fry were distributed to 
the states of New York and New Jersey. 
Numerous specimens of the commoner fresh-water fishes 
were collected in the lakes of the city parks by the employes of 
the Aquarium. 
Early in September employes of the Aquarium brought 600 
fishes from Florida, representing 52 species. A second shipment 
in October was less successful, the bulk of the collection being 
lost on account of rough weather. 
A complete list of accessions during the year will be found 
elsewhere in this report. 
Limulus to Berlin.—At the request of Dr. V. Heinroth of the 
Aquarium located in the Zoological Gardens of Berlin, the New 
York Aquarium forwarded twenty specimens of the horse-shoe 
crab (Limulus), which is not found on the eastern Atlantic Coast. 
Although special arrangements were made for their care aboard 
ship, eleven of the specimens died in transit; but the remaining 
nine were in good condition and it is hoped they can be kept 
alive for a long time. . 
Exhibit of Fancy Goldfishes—From October 10-12, inclusive, 
the Aquarium Society of New York held an exhibition of fancy 
goldfishes at the Aquarium, as had been done in 1919. It at- 
tracted much attention and many visitors, and emphasized more 
strongly than ever the desirability of such an exhibit as part 
of the permanent display of the Aquarium. With the enlarge- 
ment of the building, it may become possible to exhibit various 
fishes for home aquaria, such as fancy goldfishes, small native 
fishes—dace, killies, sticklebacks, minnows, etc.—and many 
varieties of the brilliantly colored tropical toy fishes. 
Jenny Lind Centennial Celebration——From October 1-23, in- 
clusive, the Executive Committee of the Jenny Lind Centennial 
Celebration Committee held an exhibition of the relics of the 
great Swedish singer at the Aquarium, where she first sang in 
America, in 1850. As already noted in the November Bulletin, 
the exhibition proved very popular and was viewed by 163,151
