Annual Eeports. 
work upon an extensive collection of very remarkable forms col- 
lected in Bermuda by Prof. G. Brown Goode, and another 
smaller but also valuable collection made by Mr. Cory and 
presented to the Society. When these are finished they will serve 
as the bases of a monograph of considerable interest on account of 
the unique character and completeness of the materials for study 
and comparison. 
Donations wrnre received from Mr. C. B. Cory, Dr. W. G. 
Farlow and Messrs. A. Isaacs and Co. 
Corals and Echinoderms. 
The labelling and cataloguing of the Corals and the Echino- 
derms has been about two-thirds completed. 
Mollusea. 
Another invoice of the glass models of Mollusks have been 
purchased from Professor Ward and were .received last Summer. 
A few anatomical preparations have been made during the past 
year. 
This department has received from Mrs. Gay the collection of 
the late Dr. Winslow Lewis, containing over 2500 specimens. 
Unfortunately all are without data as to localities. Mr. Kingsley 
has presented a number of Pteropods and other interesting forms. 
Crustacea. 
Here Mr. J. S. Kingsley has given us the benefit of his work ; 
besides roughly grouping the general collection, he has nearly 
completed the identification of the Shrimps. Mr. Kingsley has 
also very kindly presented to our Museum his jwivate collection 
and about one-half of this has been received. It is all alcoholic 
and contained in 190 bottles. Having been made by a specialist 
it contains many very valuable specimens and is rich in the more 
minute forms which are especially needed in our collection. The 
Society owes its most sincere thanks to Mr. Kingsley for this im- 
portant addition to their museum.
