Hab. Unji, Abyssinia, 19th Feb., 1901. 



Mr. Sclater called the attention of the Meeting to the 

 establishment, by the German Ornithological Society, under 

 the patronage of the Royal Government, of an OrDitho- 

 logical Station at Rossitten, in the Kurische Nehrung, on the 

 Baltic coast of East Prussia. The principal object of the 

 Station seemed to be for the observation of migration, but, 

 as would be seen by the rules (J. f. O. 1901, p. 274), other 

 subjects of importance would also be attended to. Prof. Dr. 

 R. Blasius, of Brunswick, had been appointed President, 

 and Herr J. Thienemann, Resident- Director of the new 

 Institution. 



The next Meeting of the Club will be held on Wednesday, 

 the 19th of June, 1901, at 8.30, at the Restaurant Frascati, 

 32 Oxford Street; the Dinner at 7 p.m.
