The Cases are sadly scattered about tiie buildiiiG;-, as to nu- 

 merical order. This could not be avoided, on account of there 

 not beini^ room. 



I have, however, begun with the highest order in Case No. 1 

 and gone to the lowest in Case Xo. 44. In many instances fam- 

 ilies not very closely allied have been forced to go in the same 

 Case, to save room. 



I cannot vouch for the identitv of the eggs, although almost 

 all are correctlv labelled. The nests are all ccjrrecilv labelled.
