Entomological anO Natural Iblston? Society 
T HIS SOCIETY has for its object the diffusion of the science of 
Natural History, by means of papers, discussions, exhibitions, 
and the formation of collections for reference. Since its commence¬ 
ment in 1858, a valuable and useful Library has been formed, which 
comprises, amongst other works, complete sets of the “Zoologist" 
(1843-1897), “ Entomologist” (Yols. 1-30), “ Entomologist’s Monthly 
Magazine ” (Vols, 1-33), and the “ Entomologist’s Record and Journal 
of Variation ” (Yols. 1-9). There is also a collection of British 
Lepidoptera, and collections of other orders are now in course of 
formation. 
The meetings take place on the first and third Tuesdays in each 
month, from 7.30 to 10 p.m., at the London Institution, Finsbury 
Circus, E.C., which is easily accessible from all parts. Exhibits are 
made at every meeting, and papers read on various Natural History 
subjects, a special feature being the systematic discussion and 
exhibition of interesting groups of insects, &c. 
The Entrance Fee is Two Shillings and Sixpence, and the Annual 
Subscription Seven Shillings and Sixpence, payable in advance, both 
being purposely kept low in order that all may avail themselves of the 
benefits the Society offers. The Society therefore looks with con¬ 
fidence for the support of all who are interested in the study of 
Natural History. 
The year commences on the first Tuesday in December, but 
intending members may join at any time, the ballot being taken at 
the next ordinary meeting after that on which they are proposed. 
Further information may be obtained from either of the lion. 
Secretaries.
