This report covers developments in the field of gamma-ray astronomy, essentially in the energy range 300 GeV to 300 TeV, reported at the XXIV International Cosmic-Ray Conference in Rome in 1995. Highlights which receive the main attention are the failure of several experiments to detect TeV photons from several supernova remnants at the level predicted on current models of shock acceleration of cosmic-ray protons, and the detection of a rapidly variable flaring output of TeV photons from two BL Lac objects (Markarian 421 and Markarian 501). Although techniques are now maturing to the extent that different measurements of the flux and spectrum from the Crab Nebula are now converging, unresolved differences remain over the existence of TeV pulses from certain pulsars. However, one well-supported instance of very intense pulsation for an hour from AE Aquarii was presented. The Vela Pulsar was reported as a steady source.
