'HIE ANNUAL MEETING, AUGUST 17th, 1926. 
The 43rd annual report showed that the membership had in- 
creased during the year from 184 to 200. Twenty-three excursions 
had been made to places of interest, the subjects studied including 
botany, birds, orchids, marine life, shells and shore life, native 
fauna, geology, fossils, and fresh-water aquatic life. Several in- 
teresting lectures had been delivered by leading men. The flower 
show in 1925 was a great success. Through the kindness of tlie 
Minister and the Eclucation Department a number of schools 
liad been approached, and they had supplied a satisfactory quan- 
titiy of flowers. Inter-State clubs had also been of great assis- 
tance. 4'he Herbarium Committee had met on many occasions 
in Professor Cleland’s rooms, Darling Building, University, where 
the plants were pressed from the collection of various schools sent 
for the wildflower show, and these, with some the Tepper Herbar- 
ium had been sorted into their separate families. Collections had 
been made at various times in the reserves at Morialta, Waterfall 
Gully, and National Park, Belair, and it was hoped to publish 
lists and articles on those reserves early next year. The death 
of Mrs. S. A. White was referred to with regret. She had been 
a member of the section for many years, and a valuable helper, 
especially at wildflower shows. 
The report of the South Australian Shell Collectors’ Club 
stated that a preliminary survey had been made of the whole 
of the South Australian bivalves and about half of the univalves, 
and it was intended later to review the whole list again and stud) 
each shell more fully. During recent years considerable alteration 
had taken place in the arrangements and classification of shells 
and a great number of old names had given place to new ones, 
resulting in some confusion in the minds of those who had become 
acquainted with the old nomenclature. 
I’he list of officers elected for the ensuing year appears on
