DescriptionProfessor Sydney John Hickson has declined, on the ground of unfamiliarity with the topic, to report on Professor F H Edgeworth's paper, 'The development of the head-muscles of the common Fowl (Callus domesticus) together with some remarks on the head-muscles of reptiles', as communicated by Professor Alexander Macalister, Fellow of the Royal Society.
