Report of the Museum Joint-Committee 
for the Year ending May 15th . 1505, 
To the Lord Provost, Magistrates, and Town Council . 
Gentlemen, 
The Joint Committee of the Perthshire Natural History 
Museunr has pleasure in submitting the Second Annual Report. 
Perthshire Museum, or Local Collections. 
The Geological Cabinet, under the east gallery rail, has been 
continued, a second cabinet having been constructed and built in, 
along with the necessary trays. The addition has relieved the 
con jested condition of the local geological duplicate collections. 
It was decided to complete another cabinet in the local insect 
collection, and eighteen more glass-topped drawers were therefore 
ordered. Lieut. Campbell has undertaken to transfer the next 
series of moths to these drawers from the cabinets in the Index 
Museum. This piece of work when complete will admit of the 
somewhat scattered index collection of Lepidoptera being brought 
together in their proper place. 
During the last three years a considerable collection of Collumhola 
(a group of inconspicuous insects found on water and in moist places) 
has been brought together by Mr. Gray. These have been handed to 
Mr. G. H. Carpenter, B.Sc., of the Science arid Art Museum, 
Dublin, to report upon,
