506 NOTES AND EXHIBITS. 



The President exhibited a species of Lamprey (Mordacia) 

 from the Nepean River, at Camden. Also an engraving of a 

 very extraordinary Ichthy odor ulite from the Carboniferous formation 

 in West Australia. Dr. Woodward, who describes it, refers it to 

 the genus Edestus, a Carboniferous form from N. America. 



Mr. Whitelegge exhibited living specimens of Amoeba radiosa, 

 A. verrucosa, and Clathrulina elegans, also a number of mounted 

 slides, containing many of the species enumerated in his list. 



Dr. Foucart exhibited a leaf of a New Guinea tree possessing 

 highly dangerous properties, and used by the natives of South Cape 

 for stupefying fish, and poisoning weapons. It was regarded as 

 probably belonging to the Euphorbiaceous plant Excoecaria 

 agallocha, known as the " Blind-your-eyes."
