The monthly evening meeting of the Society was held on Monday, the 8th November, His Excellency the Governor in the chair.
-Mr. M. Allport, in the absence of the hon. secretary, called attention to the beautiful series of lithographs of the tertiary fossils from the north coast of Tasmania, executed by Mrs. Meredith from her own original drawings, and pointed out that the value of the Rev. Julian Woods' paper on these fossils was materially enhanced by the skilful work of the talented artist.
-The Rev. J. E. Tenison Woods in introducing his paper "On some new and hitherto undescribed Shells of Tasmania," remarked that his list though a large one for novelties, where so much had been done, might require considerable augmentation.
