Devonian of the Eifel (Dohm coll.) ; Cirripedia from the 

 Trioiucleus ■sh3i]es of Sea a (Moberg coll.), the mucronata- 

 Chalkof Riigen (Laur coll.), and the Daniau of Faxe (Pindborg 

 coll.) ; Phyllocarida from the Upper Ordovician of Girvan and 

 the Upper Silurian of Lanark (W. ¥cPherson coll.) ; Decapoda 

 from the Oxfordian near Peterborough (Leeds coll.), and the 

 Danian of Faxe (Pindborg coll.) ; Trichoptera in Miocene amber 

 from East Prussia (Klebs coll.V 



Rough material from the Olenellian sandstone of Comley, 

 Shropshire, has been examined, and the resulting Trilobites 

 re-registered and labelled. The revision of the collection of 

 Cirripedia has been continued, and among series thus re-labelled 

 and re-registered are those from the Wenlock Limestone of 

 Dudley, and from the Coralline Crag of Suffolk ( S. V. Wood 

 coll.). 



The mounting of the large collection of amber inclusa is 

 now almost finished. It has been found possible, not only to 

 mount the gum-copal inclusa in a similar manner, but to dis- 

 criminate between the fossil gums from different localities; 

 the important information thus obtained has been entered on 

 the labels. 



Among additions to the exhibited collection may be men- 

 tioned : a series of British Tertiary Termites, including new 

 species of Mastotermes, a Recent Australian genus ; a specimen 

 of Garyocaris kilbridensis, described by H. Woodward as 

 possessing winter eggs (Quart. Journ. Geol. Soc, 1912); a 

 lobster, Mecochirus iongimanus, from the Lithographic Stone 

 of Solenhofen, with the tracks left in its final movements 

 (described in Knowledge, September 1914). 



The slip-catalogue of exhibited specimens has been con- 

 tinued. 



Number of specimens of Arthropoda registered, 1,370.

 Clay (Mockler washings), the Chalk of S.E, England (Withers

 the Eifel (Dohm coll.) and of England (G. H. Morton coll.), 

 the Carboniferous of Donegal (Montmorency coll.), of the 

 British Isles and Belgium (G. H. Morton coll.), of Queensland 

 (squeezes from Queensland Geological Survey coll.), the Boone
