ANNUAL REPORT. 
The Council has to report that during the past year the work 
of the Society has included research in the various departments 
of science as represented by the various papers read before. the 
Society and included in its Transactions. 
The membership of the Society consists of 10 Hon. Fellows, 
68 Fellows, 7 Corresponding Members, and 1 Associate. Six 
Fellows have been elected during the year. 
It had been decided by the Council to publish a series of 
“* Memoirs” of the Royal Society in royal-quarto size for the 
purpose of presenting the descriptions of the Fossil Remains of 
Lake Callabonna in this province in a more suitable form than 
is permitted by the size of the ‘“‘ Transactions.” The first part of 
the first volume of the “ Memoirs” has now been issued. Other 
parts will appear as circumstances permit. 
The Council gratefully acknowledge the timely assistance of 
the Government of this colony, exercised through its Treasurer 
(the Hon. F. W. Holder), in making a special grant of money 
which has removed the principal obstacle to publishing a 
scientific account of the Callabonna discovery.
