Field Meetings, 1910. 231 
chalky sides of a drive in the Wood, one of the few stations in the 
County for the former species. 
The Rev. E. A. Woodruffe-Peacock writes:—Mr. J. S. 
Sneath acted as botanical recorder for this meeting, as the 
Secretary, much to his regret, was away in Ireland. This wooded 
district is rich in good things but has never been properly worked, 
I fear. There is a difficulty about doing so without large scale 
maps. Welton Wood according to the Drift Map is on Purple 
Boulder Clay. Orby Wood close by on the lower and middle chalk. 
Now, one thing or another is certain about the notes of this 
meeting and others, even my own made years ago. Either the 
boundaries of Welton Wood according to the map were over- 
passed, and a chalk soil visited, or the so called Purple Boulder 
Clay just where it thins out on the chalk, must be nearly entirely 
composed of chalk fragments. I mean to a much greater extent 
than any Purple Boulder Clay, I personally know, has been. 
The following is a selection from Mr. Sneath’s list of plants 
observed :—Lychnis flos-cuculi, Vicia sepium, v. sylvatica, Geum 
uvbanum x vivale, Sanicula, Pimpinella major, Galium palustre, 
G.Witheringit, Picris echioides, Campanula latifolia, Scrophularia nodosa, 
Oviganum, Calamintha clinopodium, Plantago media, Listeva ovata, 
Epipactis latifolia, Orchis pyramidalis, O. maculata, Ophrys muscifera, 
Habenana bifolia, and Linaria minor, a railway ballast casual at 
Willoughby Station. An area which is so rich to constant 
application would surely supply even more. 
Dy. The Seventy-First Meeting was held in conjunction with the 
Yorkshire Naturalists’ Union at SCUNTHORPE, on August 
25th. There was a good attendance of Lincolnshire members, 
some good work was done, and new species were recorded. The 
finding of Limnea glabra was a most interesting discovery and is 
referred to ut the President’s address in this part of the 
Transactions. An exhaustive report of the meeting appeared in 
“The Naturalist ’’ for November 1g1o. 
Dr. Wallace reports upon Coleoptera: A large number of 
species were taken by working chiefly over the sandy warren: 
several of these are new to our county list and many new division 
records were made. 
The following are the most interesting, and those marked
