KEPOET of the COUNCIL. 



During the Session 1894-95 there have been eight 

 ordinary meetings of the Society, held as heretofore at 

 University College, and two field meetings. The first 

 field meeting took place in May, to Hilbre Island. 

 Invitations were extended to members of the Geological 

 and Microscopical Societies of Liverpool, the Chester 

 Society of Natural Science, and the West Kirby Literary 

 and Scientific Society and a large and very successful 

 meeting was held. The second field meeting was to 

 Moreton and Leasowe Marshes in June, and was held 

 jointly with the Microscopical Society.. 



The communications made to the Society have been 

 representative of almost all branches of Biology, and 

 many interesting exhibits have been submitted at the 

 Meetings. 



The Library still continues to make satisfactory progress 

 as shown by the Librarian's Report which follows. The 

 Council desire to record their appreciation of the services 

 rendered by Dr. Hanitsch, who has acted as Hon. Librarian 

 for some years, and under whose fostering care the Society's 

 Library has made such satisfactory progress. Dr. 

 Hanitsch 's work in arranging exchanges with other scien- 

 tific societies has been most valuable. 



The Treasurer's usual statement and Balance Sheet are 

 appended. No alterations have been made in the Laws 

 of the Society during the past session. The membership 

 has been well sustained, twenty new members having 

 been elected during the past session. 



The members at present on the roll are as follows : — • 



Honorary Members 7 



Ordinary Members 66 



Student Members 25
