92 Report of the President 



Our card catalogue of reference to the description of new- 

 species, and to the literature of ornithology, has been kept up 

 to date by Mrs. Fraser, and it forms an indispensable part of 

 our department equipment. 



A number of species received in the flesh from the New 

 York Zoological Society, which were not represented in our 

 exhibition collections, have been mounted for dis- 

 play. Lack of space has made it inadvisable to 

 prepare new collections for our exhibition halls.
