Abstract

OPENING OF A NEW INSTITUTE AT HAYLING ISLAND. A NEW phase in the control of the mosquito problem was reached last week when members of the Section of Zoology of the British Association attended the opening of the British Mosquito Control Institute, which has been founded and equipped by Mr. J. F. Marshall in his own grounds at Hayling Island, Hants. The new building (Fig. 1) occupies two stories and includes a demonstration museum, a laboratory, drawing and record offices, photographic rooms, a library, and a mechanical workshop. There are also a number of smaller rooms designed for research students. It already contains a wealth of material for mosquito study not available elsewhere, and historical records of how the mosquito has been successfully combated on the island.
