EEPOET of COUNCIL. 

 During the Session 1893-94 there have been eight 

 ordinary meetings of the Society, held as heretofore at 

 University College, and one field meeting, in July, 1894, 

 held at West Kirby and Hilbre Island. 



The communications made to the Society have been 

 representative of almost all branches of Biology, and 

 many interesting exhibits (both microscopic and macro- 

 scopic) have been submitted at the meetings. 



As on several former occasions, in previous sessions, 

 the Council invited an outside Biologist of note to address 

 the Society upon some of his ovm investigations. This 

 address, given by Professor Beynolds Green, was both of 

 interest and of importance, and was much appreciated by 

 the Society. 



The Library still continues to make satisfactory progress 

 as shown by the Librarian's Beport which follows. 



The Treasurer's usual statement and Balance Sheet 

 are appended. 



Xo alterations have been made in the Laws of the 

 Society during the past session. 



By the lamentable death of Prof. Mimes Marshall the 

 Society has, in common with many other similar societies, 

 and science generally, suffered a great and unexpected 

 loss. On the roll of Honorary Members almost from the 

 outset, Prof. Marshall's name and cordial support have 

 been an honour and source of strength to the Society, and 

 your Council were looking forward to the advantage of an 

 Address from him at an early date. 



The members at present on the roll are as follows : 



Honorary Members 8 



Ordinary Members 64 



Student Members 24 



Total 96
