ENTOMOLOGICAL BRANCH OF THE OTTAWA FIELD NATURALISTS' CLUB
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 31 May 2012
Extract
The members of this section of Club are endeavoring to create a more active interest in the study of entomology by holding fortnightly meetings, at the residences of the members, for the exhibition of specimens, discussion thereon, and the presentation of brief papers. The movement has so far proved most satisfactory, and the benefit of it has been felt by every individual, in reviving and quickening their love for the subject, and in affording opprtunity for solving of problems which every collector meets with in examining insects which he has not specially stuided. Three meetings have already been held; the first at the residence of Dr. Flecther, who was the principal mover in organizing the meetings; the second at Mr. Harrington's and the third at Mr.Hulkett's. They were all most enjoyable and instructive, and the two hours allotted to each were fully occupied, and the discussions and exhibits will undoubtedly bear fruit in improved work in future by the members. They also look forward to more systematic collecting in the approaching season, and to the holding of more frequent sub-excurisions.
