 cient opportunity for developing this point. He hoped, however, to 

 be able to work it out in future observations. 



Mr. Hogg said he had been struck by the comparisons made in 

 reference to these earth-worms ; and it had brought to his mind 

 Mr. Lee's investigations on the land-leech. He should like speci- 

 mens of this animal to be placed in Mr. Lowne's hands. In this 

 leech he (Mr. Hogg) had observed that the mouth and nervous system 

 corresponded very closely to that described by Mr. Lowne in Ascarides. 



Mr. Lee said he had a few specimens of the leech referred to by 

 Mr. Hogg {Trocheta suhviridis), which he should be happy to place at 

 Mr. Lowne's disposal. 



The President stated that as a new list of the Fellows would be 

 printed as soon as possible after the Anniversary Meeting, all changes 

 of residence should be immediately communicated to Mr. Walter W. 

 Eeeves, the Assistant-Secretary. 



The meeting was then adjoiu'ned to the 8th of February (the 

 Anniversary), when the Officers and Council for the ensuing year 

 will be elected.
