XXXII. Additional Ob/fervations, m Fucus Hypogloffum, p. 30. By 
T. T. Woodward, Ef. F. L. S. 
Read "fune 4, 1793. 
N the paper read before this Society, in which Fucus Hypoglofum 
A is defcribed, it is mentioned that this fpecies was fo named by 
the EIE ingenious Dr. Solander ; ; but that, his papers on the genus 
being loft, n c on from him could be met with on 
the fabje&. Since tar re thefe valuable manufcripts have 
been recovered by the diligence of Mr. Dryander and Mr. T. F. 
Foríter jun. and are. now fafely depofited in the library of Sir . 
Jofeph Banks. | 
It was not till after the fhect containing my account of this - 
Fucus was gone to prefs, that I received information of this difco- 
very; when Sir Jofeph Banks not only permitted me freely to 
examine and make extracts from thefe papers, but. allowed me to 
make fuch ufe of them. as might be neceffary to elucidate this or 
any other of the Britifh Fuci. In confequence of this permiflion, 
I now lay before the Society Dr. Solander's fpecific character and 
obfervations; premifing, that being in doubt whether the plant 
was dioecious. or not, the Doctor has defcribed it as two diftin& 
fpecies, but remarking, that they were probably to be confidered 
as male and female of the fame fpecies.
