Abstract
A NOTE received from MM. Eigenson and Gnevishev of the Pulkovo Observatory directs attention to the high degree of sunspot activity on and about January 31 last (when the Tashkent Observatory recorded a total spotted area of 4000 millionths of the sun's hemisphere) and a series of auroras which were extensively observed from the U.S.S.R. between January 31 and February 3. The solar activity and associated terrestrial phenomena (including the aurora observed in England on February 3) have been described in NATURE (Feb. 6, p. 228; Feb. 13, p. 277; Feb. 27, p. 375; and April 17, p. 680).
