28 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE 



The collection has also been increased by purchase of material 

 from a number of other sources. From the middle of January 

 to the middle of March, I had the pleasure of accompanying Prof. 

 Carlos de la Torre upon a successful zoological excursion through 

 the Cienaga de Zapata and the mountain region of eastern Cuba 

 to Cabo Cruz. The thanks of the Museum are due to the many 

 persons who assisted in making this expedition a success; and 

 especially to Prof. W. M. Wheeler and Mr. L. A. Shaw, who were 

 with me during the first part of the trip, and who were zealous in 

 their aid.
