386 JOURNAL, BOMBAY NATURAL I£LST. SOCIETY, Vol. XXIL 



A set of specimens from the Central Provinces has been sent to the 

 Nagpnr Mnsenm and a general set to the Indian Museum at Calcutta. 



As regards finance, money is, we are sorry to say, coming in but 

 slowly. The Government of Ceylon have however promised 

 lis. 2,500 and the Government of the Central Provinces a similar 

 sum. The Executors and Trustees of the will of the late Mr. N. M. 

 Wadia, CLE., have given us Rs. 500 and promised us a further 

 sum of Rs. 500. Another member of the Tata family, Sir Dorab 

 Tata, Bart., has generously helped us by a second contribution of 

 Ps. 1,000, and one of the Burmese Nobles gave us Rs. 250. We 

 must however look to the members of the Society for further 

 contributions and we hope that every member will see his way to 

 contribute at least Rs. 10 per annum.
