II Jan. 23 busy part of the city, hence the large playground is much appreciated. Visited Dr. M.A.H. Qadri, chairman, Dept. of Zool., Univ. of Karachi, 12 mi. N of town. Also met Dr. M. Tufail, a marine ecologist, Dr. M.H. Qazi, a vertebrate zoologist and physiologist who did work at Louisiana State and who knew Fred Cagle, Dr. M. Ahman an Entomologist, and Dr. Hamid Mahmood a systematic entomologist who studied at North Carolina State. Qazi, a tall, dark, handsome young man has asked for my botanical reprints. Dr. Qadri, perhaps in his middle 50's, grayish, slender, crooked, spaced teeth, mustache, slow, sniffing speech showed me about the museum. Many stuffed animals - rhino head to cassowary, preserved snakes & lizards of Pakistan, game birds of Pakistan, marine life, plaster models, etc., in hall 250' x 100', well lighted - many windows. Qadri has gotten a wild patch of the campus set aside. His main interest is in desert ecology. He identified the large acacia as Acacia arabica and the cactus- like plant (not-too-cactus-like) as Euphorbia ondifolia. It has a milky sap. They also have several species of mosquito. All men seemed interested in the "guidelines" approach and hoped I would send a copy for review.
