Abstract
AFTER the first working year a formal inauguration of this new institution took place on April 11. Dr. Dohrn had invited the Italian Minister of Public Instruction, Signor Borghi, and the German Ambassador at Rome, Herr von Kendell, to be present as representatives of the two countries which had most assisted in completing the new establishment, the one granting the locality, whilst the other paid a subvention of 3,000l. towards the expenses of the construction. Unfortunately both gentlemen were at the last moment prevented from being present, but sent two letters stating their great sympathy and the sympathy of the two Governments which they represent, for the Zoological Station.
