1016 NOTES AND EXHIBITS. 



Professor Stephens exhibited the magnificent donation whicli 

 the Society had lately received from the Rev. Dr. Woolls, con- 

 sisting of a very large collection of New Zealand Lichens, all well 

 preserved, mounted, and accurately named by Dr. Knight, of 

 Wellington, New Zealand. For this donation a most cordial 

 vote of thanks was accorded by the meeting. 



Mr. Brazier exhibited a specimen of Trigonia Lamarckii, Gray, 

 containing a beautiful flesh tinged Pearl, from Port Jackson. 



Dr. von Lendenfeld exhibited specimens of the Ctenophora of 

 Port Jackson, described by him as Bolina Clmni, in different stages 

 of development, alive in an Aquarium. A live specimen of Nets 

 cordigera, measuring a foot in length, was also exhibited by him. 



Baron Maclay exhibited the shells, — identified in Mr. Brazier's 

 Paper, — which hej had collected on the Maclay-coast, many 

 hundred feet above the sea level. He also exhibited a sample of 

 dried clay, remarkable on account of its extreme hardness. 



Mr. Layman M. Harrison exhibited a leg bone of a bullock, 

 which had been fractured in such a way that the broken ends had 

 been forced aside and completely apart. Notwithstanding this 

 the bones had knit by very remarkable side growth.
