Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of the Bombay Natural History Society, 1886, Vol. 1: Consisting of Four Numbers and Containing Twelve Illustrations IN issuing the first number of the Journal of the Bombay Natural History Society, it seems appropriate to give some account of the origin of the Society and of its position at the present time. It was founded on the 15th of September 1883, by seven gentlemen interested in natural history, who proposed to meet monthly and exchange notes, exhibit interesting specimens, and otherwise encourage one another. The subscription was purposely made little more than nominal, and the possibility of forming or maintaining a museum was scarcely contemplated at that time. For several months meetings were held in the Victoria and Albert Museum; but in January 1884, Mr. H. M. Phipson kindly offered the use of a room in his office in the Fort. This removal to a central situation gave an astonishing impulse to the Society. The meetings were better attended, the membership increased, and collections began to be made, so that in a very short time the necessity tbr more ample accommodation Was pressingly felt. A committee appointed to seek for suitable rooms, having failed elsewhere, recommended the Society to ask Mr. Phipson to let one half of his office premises, including the room, of which they had up to this time had the gratuitous use. He consented to this, and so the Society continued to hold its meet ings and keep its collections at 18, Forbes Street. Its progress was so rapid, however, that these premises were soon felt to be too small, and last month the collections were removed to larger and in every way more suitable rooms at 6, Apollo Street.

This book was released on 2023-12-14 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book devoted to the interest taken by amateur British collectors in Indian insects between 1750 and 1947, many employed as soldiers and medics by the East India Company. Initially confined to the building up of personal collections (many of which would later form the foundation of the London Natural History Museum’s collection), the early entomologists also donated specimens to the Asiatic Society of Bengal, the Bombay Natural History Society and local museums. Some published their findings in the journals of these institutions. Towards the end of the nineteenth century, interest in entomology shifted to focus on insect pests and their economic impact on forestry and horticulture. The result was the founding of the Institutes of Forestry and Horticulture at Dehra Dun and Pusa, where Indian scientists continue to conduct entomological research today. The present work elucidates this previously under-researched aspect of British insect history, documenting the people, places, publications and institutions associated with the exploration of the rich entomological fauna of the Indian subcontinent.
