94 ANNALS OF SCOTTISH NATURAL HISTORY 



with an eye to the Rotifers and Tardigrada (see published 

 lists), I noticed incidentally any Sarcodina which I could 

 identify. Those are chiefly the common and easy species. 

 Drawings of some of the more difficult species were sent to 

 Dr. Penard, who named them ; and Dr. Penard himself has 

 since examined for Mr. Evans a sample of Sphagnum from 

 the Forth Area, and supplied notes of species which do not 

 come within my limited knowledge. Mr. Cash has also 

 examined moss sent by Mr. Evans, and given a list of many 

 interesting species. Dr. Penard's and Mr. Cash's lists are 

 being published by Mr. Evans in the " Proceedings of the 

 Royal Physical Society." The sole reason for publishing 

 this very incomplete and unauthoritative list is that a 

 number of the common species which I observed did not 

 happen to occur in the moss sent to those specialists, or at 

 any rate were not noted by them, and that it supplies 

 additional localities for many of the others. 



Beyond the species found in the moss collected by 

 Mr. Evans I have only added some half-dozen species 

 collected by the Lake Survey in Loch Vennachar in the 

 year 1902, as there were no other records of most of them 

 from the Forth Area.
