10. The First International Entomological Congress. 



The first meeting of the Congress, held at Brussels during 

 the first week of August, was very largely attended by 

 British entomologists, including several naturalists who have 

 associated themselves with the Hope Department. The Pro- 

 fessor, with the kind help of Mr. H. Eltringham, conveyed the 

 examples of three series of mimetic butterflies, collected near 

 Entebbe from May 23 to September 30, 1909, by Mr. C. A. 

 Wiggins. The combinations, ranged round three types of 

 Planenia {Acraeinae) pattern, occupied, together with the 

 models, 11 large store-boxes. The whole had been provided 

 by Mr. A. H. Hamm with printed labels, giving the names 

 of the species and the dates on which they were captured. 

 The Planema models were rendered conspicuous by red labels 

 as well as by their position. The whole collection was carried 

 to Brussels and back without injury. A memoir on the 

 exhibited specimens will appear in the Report of the Congress, 



The large attendance of British naturalists was recognized 

 in the unanimous choice of Oxford as the home of the second 

 Congress, to be held in 19 1.3.
