RESOLUTION CONCERNING ZOOLOGICAL NOMENCLATURE 



The President then announced that the Council had been considering 

 the advisability of having the Society represented in the discussions on 

 zoological nomenclature, and he instructed the Secretary to read the fol- 

 lowing resolution toward this end, drawn up by the Council : 



Resolved, That a committee of three (3), representing the three branches of 

 the Paleontological Society, be appointed by the President, with the advice 

 and consent of the Council, to act in cooperation with the International Com- 

 mission on Zoological Nomenclature and any other similar bodies. Further, 

 that the findings of this committee in the shape of recommendations be sub- 

 mitted to the Council, which in turn will transmit them to the Society for final 

 action and approval. 



This resolution was accepted as a motion, which was seconded, and, 

 after discussion by W. J. Holland, John M. Clarke, S. W. Williston, and 

 Charles Schuchert, was adopted. The chair then appointed S. W. Willis- 

 ton as chairman, W. H. Dall, and F. H. Knowlton as a committee to 

 represent the Society in this matter.
