3. The Prosector has utilized all the material received in 

 prosecuting the investigation into the phylogeny of the verte- 

 brate lung, which has extended over a number of years. The 

 portion of the work dealing with the mammalian respiratory 

 tract is now completed and also awaits an opportunity for pub- 

 lication. 



4. Drs. Grace and McGuire have been engaged during the 

 year in a detailed study of the myology of the anthropoid apes. 

 The receipt of the body of the young gorilla has enabled them 

 to complete this series, which now includes specimens of all 

 four representatives of the group. 



5. The preparations of the alimentary canal, the genito- 

 urinary system, and the heart have all been added to the stand- 

 ard series in the Morphological Museum. 



Respectfully submitted, 



Geo. S. Huntington, 



Prosector.
