Abstract
THE Cambridge and Royal Society Expedition which set out last September to investigate the biology of the Suez Canal (see NATURE, October 4, p. 520) arrived at Suez at the end of the month, and at once went under canvas on the shores of the Bitter Lakes, being provided with boats, etc., by the generosity of the Canal Company. Here the members remained for four weeks, afterwards proceeding to Suez for a like period. They are now at Ismailia living on a house-boat lent by the Canal Company, this being towed from place to place as desired. Later they propose to move to Port Said for the last four weeks of their stay.
