4. Systematic Museum. The readjustment and building 
up of this museum has been continued on the plans men- 
tioned in my last report: 
(2) Synoptic collection. This, the main department of the 
systematic museum, has been brought into an approximately 
complete condition in so far as our present equipment of cases 
permits. Each case has been furnished with a number in 
the upper left hand corner, while a large label stating the 
contents of each, together with a concise definition of the 
group of plants there represented, has been placed in the 
center above the doors. This collection now occupies 128 
cases, and its present arrangement is as follows: 
Case number 1, Myxomycetes (slime moulds).
