been overlooked. A few years ago absolutely nothing was 

 known of the Fungi of Ireland, so that it was no exaggeration 

 to say that it was not known for certain that even Puccinia 

 gravii7iis existed there. Except the Dublin district ; Armagh, 

 Antrim, and Down, of which Rev. H. W. Lett has published 

 a list in the Proceedings of the Belfast Naturalists' Field 

 Club^ ; and a few species recorded by me in Cork and Kerry, 

 Ireland is still a complete terra ineognita. It is to be hoped 

 that the visit of the British Mycological Societ}^ this autumn 

 will result in the addition of a large number of species to the 

 list.
