REPORT ON THE INSTRUCTION IN ZOOLOGY. 



By Professor E. L. Mark. 



"Since the last report, courses of instruction in Zoology have 

 been somewhat rearranged. Corresponding to alterations in the 

 organization of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, there has been 

 a change in the announcement of the courses, so that those previ- 

 ously designated as courses in Natural History are now named, from 

 their respective departments, Botany 1, 2, etc., and Zoology 1, 2, 

 etc. This has allowed a more natural sequence of the courses 

 announced in Zoology, which with their previous equivalents are 

 as follows : — 



Zoology 1, formerly Nat. Hist. 2. 



5 (the Zoological half).

With the exception of a new half-year course (Zool. 5), the lec- 

 tures were substantially the same as those in 1889-90 and were 

 given by the same instructors. 



Ninety-one students completed the course in Zoology 1. The As- 

 sistants were Mr. William E. Ritter, upon whom the most of the 

 laboratory work devolved, and Mr. J. C. Hubbard. 



Zoology 2 was conducted as heretofore in the second half of 

 the year by Mr. G. H. Parker, and his Assistant in the labora- 

 tory work was again Dr. W. A. Setchell. There were thirty-four 

 students in this course.
