BOTANY 



Mrs. Russell of Kenilworth, and most of her specimens were named or 

 confirmed by eminent authorities. The writer must acknowledge his 

 indebtedness to the late Rev. W. W. Newbould for all his knowledge of 

 these plates. Many MS. notes have been received from the Rev. D. C. 

 O. Adams of the fungi found by him in the neighbourhood of Combe, 

 Ansty and Brinklow, and the list owes much of its completeness to the 

 indefatigable zeal of his coadjutor Mr. W. B. Grove, M.A. 



The classification and nomenclature is that of Fries in his very 

 valuable Hymenomycetes Europcei. The record of the fungi of Warwick- 

 shire is believed to be larger than that of any of the midland counties, 

 but this is greatly due to the fact that two of the most eminent British 

 mycologists, Withering and Purton, left behind them so excellent a 

 record of the fungus wealth of the county.
