worked out in Christiania under his direction and the Enghsh material would be 

 treated in England according to his instruction. As to Germany Geheimrat Brandt 

 mentioned that it had not been possible to collect material in May, but that investiga- 

 tions had been carried out in August on the same system and the material was 

 at present being worked out in Kiel. 



Professor Gran was willing to work out the whole of the available May 

 material, but wished to have a sum placed at his disposal for the necessary assist- 

 ance and the final compilation. 



The other members of the section agreed and a resolution was passed 

 accordingly which should be handed over to the Central Bureau. 1200 Kroner 

 was considered a suitable sum. 



A type-written report of the plankton-work carried out by the Bureau was 

 laid before the meeting by Dr. Ostenfeld as temporary assistant of the Bureau:
