given last year a partial notice of this collection, confined, however, to a 
preliminary list of the species of Anolis identified. The present paper gave 
the results of a study of the whole collection, and was not restricted to the 
description of the new forms, but enumerated all the species, for the purpose 
of recording additional remarks and revisions which appeared necessary. 
In it twenty-seven species were mentioned, ten of which were new. 
Mr. G. A. Boulenger read an account of a new species of Enyalius in 
the Brussels Museum, from Ecuador, which he proposed to name Enyalius 
O’Shaughnessyi. 
Lieut.-Col. H. H. Godwin-Austen read the first part of a memoir on the 
Land Shells collected on the island of Socotra by Prof. I. B. Balfour. The 
present communication comprised an account of the’species of Cyclostomacee 
found on the island.

in the chair. 
The Secretary read a report on the additions that had been made to the 
Society’s Menagerie during the month of January, 1881, and called special 
attention toa White-nosed Saki, Pithesia albinasa, purchased Jan. 11th; an 
American Monkey of the genus Callithrix (probably referable to C. brunnea), 
purchased along with the preceding ; and an example of an Insectivore of the 
genus Tupaia (probably 7. tana), obtained by purchase on the same day.

The Rev. O. P. Cambridge exhibited and made remarks on an Hymen- 
opterous parasite, bred from larvee found on two Spiders—Linyphia obscura, 
Blackw. (female), and L. zebrina, Menge (male). The larve were stated to 
be apodous, and to adhere to the abdomen of the Spider, which, when full

Mr. E. W. H. Holdsworth exhibited a specimen of White’s Thrush, 
Turdus varius, killed in South Devonshire in January last. 
Mr. C. O. Waterhouse read a paper on the Coleopterous Insects 
belonging to the family Hispide, collected by Mr. Buckley in Ecuador. 
Seventeen species of Hispide had hitherto been recorded as inhabiting that 
country; of these Mr. Buckley had met with fifteen, which, together with 
nineteen new species, made a total of thirty-six species in the series now 
described. 
Mr. W. L. Distant read a paper on some additions which had been 
lately made to the Rhynchotal Fauna of the Ethiopian Region, nine new
