14 Resume of Field Meetings. 
The Sundews, Dvroserva intermedia and _ rotundifolia were 
in abundance, as was Narthecium ossifragum, Anagallis 
tenella, Hypericum  elodes, Gentiana Pneumonanthe, witk 
one specimen of the variety flove albo. The rare Littorella 
juncea was obtained, growing with Scutellaria minor, and the still 
smaller Radiola linoides. Many species of mosses were taken, and 
nine or ten liverworts. Reptiles were also in evidence in all parts 
of the Common—viper, common snake, lizards, frog and toad. 
Thus a large mass of material was procured, from which long lists 
have been compiled for the registers. For the arrangements of 
this meeting and the entertainment following, our thanks are due 
to Mr. F. M. Burton. 
The forty-seventh Field meeting was held at MOORTOWN 
on Friday, August 25th. The only Lincolnshire locality for 
Equisetum hyemale, which was found in plenty. Geranium 
pyvenaicum was seen on the roadside in masses, having within 
recent years come down .the slope, from Nettleton. ‘The soil 
was blown sand. On alluvium at the river head were found 
Volvulus sepium, Mentha viridis, and Potamogeton pectinatus. In 
the woods Verbascum Thapsus, Sagina nodosa, &c.; and in a 
stagnant pool, in a wood known as the Raspberries, was found 
floating in large numbers the liverwort Iticciocarpus natans. ‘This 
meeting was one of the quiet ones, as few members turned up ; 
but, nevertheless, over two hundred notes were made for the 
future flora of the county. 
The forty-eighth meeting was held at LINCOLN on Tues- 
day, October 3rd, when Mr. Charles Crossland, of Halifax, met the 
members to go over the ground in search of fungi. ‘The first 
noticeable feature at the assembly was that four ex-Presidents 
were present, as well as our ever present Chairman. ‘The search 
was made along Gowt’s Drain, Swanpool Plantation (which 
yielded a large number of species), Hartsholme to Hykeham 
Station, all members doing their best to secure specimens for 
verification. After tea the spoils were exhibited and named by 
Mr. Crossland, who also addressed the members on the subject. 
He also expressed his willingness again to assist in a similar way. 
Mr. Hawley helped Mr. Crossland in a most enthusiastic manner, 
and will accept the position of recorder for the Union. Eighty- 
five fungi records was the excellent result of this meeting.
