The following papers have been contributed from the 
laboratory during the past year: — 
Herbert Fox — ''Observations on Neoplasms in Wild 
Animals at the Philadelphia Zoological Gardens." — 
British Journal of Pathology and Bacteriology, October, 
1912. This paper reported 35 cases of neoplasms in wild 
animals out of 2554 autopsies, showing that such dis- 
eases are not peculiar to man and domesticated animals. 
Fred D. Weidman — ''Studies in Metazoan Parasit- 
ology at the Philadelphia Zoological Gardens." — Academy 
of Natural Sciences, January 21, 1913. In this paper sta- 
tistics covering a period of ten years were presented in 
regard to the incidence of worms in wild animals in these 
gardens. In addition, two new species of verminous 
parasites were described and an exhibition given of 
pathological specimens in glass and under the microscope.
