Nos. 9, 10, and 11 do not appear to require notice. 
The South American specimens have been stowed in trays fitted 
to wooden cases of coarse materials and low price, but so as to be 
readily accessible ; and this plan answers so well, that it may be de- 
sirable, while the finances of the Society are low, to dispose in like 
manner of many other parts of the foreign collection, it being di- 
stinctly understood, however, that the existing arrangement is not 
to be broken up, and that specimens of unconnected districts shall 
never be allowed to occupy the same tray.

been ticketed, lettered, and numbered, and to each of these a refer- 
ence has been made in the Catalogue. The works have been dis- 
tributed under the following heads :—
