the Mergui Archipelago, Lower Burma. The collection from the 

 Kerimba Archipelago contained 21 species, all of which had been 

 previously described. In this paper it is proposed to establish 

 a new genus for the inclusion of Colochirus violaceus Theel. 

 The collection from the Mergui Archipelago called for no special 

 comment, none of the 14 species being new. 



Dr. G. Stewardson Brady, LL.D., F.R.S., C.M.Z.S., presented 

 a paper entitled " A Revision of the British Species of Ostracoda 

 belonging to the Subfamilies Candonin.® and Herpetocyphri- 

 DIN.E." The paper was a synopsis intended to show our present 

 knowledge of the families referred to, describing briefly the known 

 British species. Some few new genera and species, and others 

 already described by foreign authors but not previously recognized 

 as British, were dealt with. 



Mr. Frank E. Beddard, M.A., F.R.S., F.Z.S., read a paper 

 " On the Anatomy of Hippopotamus amphibius" based on a male 

 specimen which had died in the Society's Gardens.
