52 NEW YORK ZOOLOGICAL SOCIETY 



active and successful season, with a large number of visitors 

 to the station. 



The Research Station is acquiring a great reputation, which 

 in turn reacts most favorably on the fame of the Society. The 

 work of the Station is more particularly described in the report 

 for 1920 by Director Beebe. 



The subscriptions to the Tropical Research Station for the 

 past year were as follows : 



Edward S. Harkness $1,000.00 



Col. Anthony R. Kuser 1,000.00 



E. C. Converse 1,000.00 



A. Barton Hepburn 1,000.00 



George J. Gould 1,000.00 



Mortimer L. Schiff 1,000.00 



Cleveland H. Dodge 500.00 



C. Ledyard Blair 500.00 



Total $7,000.00 



As the Station will be kept open longer this year, at least 

 $10,000 will be needed for the coming year. 



PHEASANT MONOGRAPH. 



The second volume of the Pheasant Monograph will be pub- 

 lished during the spring of 1921, and thereafter Volumes III 

 and IV will appear in quick succession. 



Sales in America of this magnificent work up to January 1, 

 1921, amounted to 214 copies. The conditions imposed by the 

 war having been removed, it is believed that the completion of 

 the final volumes of this Monograph will not be further delayed. 



NATIONAL COLLECTION OF HEADS AND HORNS. 



The approaching construction of the Heads and Horns 

 Museum has led to further activities in increasing this collection. 



The most notable accession of the year was a world's-first- 

 record horns of the African Buffalo. The collection requires, 

 and must have as soon as possible, several more heads of giraffe, 

 rhinoceros, elephants and a number of other species.
