Description
The Exhibition Catalogue for the Cardiff Naturalists' Society Jubilee celebrations, 1937. This is one of many years the Naturalists from the Biological and Geological section held an exhibition. It was held at the University College of South Wales and Monmouthshire, Newport Road, Cardiff, on Thursday, 11th March 1937, illustrating the work of the members of the section during the past 50 years. The catalogue lists each individual item of discovery and who found it.
The Cardiff Naturalists' Society was established in 1867 in Cardiff, Glamorgan, on the initiative of Robert Drane, F.L.S. (1833-1914). The society is the longest established wildlife organisation in the area and promotes the study of natural history, geology and the natural sciences. The Society held many lectures and talks on a variety of topics, as well as field trips and exhibitions. They have strong links with the National Museum Wales in Cardiff, which holds a large collection of volumes created by the Naturalists. The society is still active today and holds a yearly programme.
