Pinus Dizoni, Bow. 
In this list there are twenty-eight species, fourteen of which are 
entirely new to science, those marked * being only known through my 
own collecting. Four other most important Conifer were previously 
unrecognised in Britain, these being Cryptomeria Sternbergii, Araucaria 
Gepperti, Doliostrobus Sternbergii, and Taxodium Europewm, Many of 
the remainder have been defined with greater precision, especially the 
Irish species of Pinus and the English and Irish species of Cupressus, of 
both of which fruits are for the first time discovered. The true nature 
of other well-known Conifere is also recognised, such as that of the 
supposed Sequoia Couttsiw, ascertained to be an Athrotazis, and the Alum 
Bay Oupressites, found to be a Podocarpus. Finally, a number of useless 
‘Species are suppressed. 
__ Ettingshausen, in the list of Sheppey fossils already referred to, 
admits the following :— 
Callitris curta, Bow. Cupressinites globosus, Bow. 
0. Comptoni, - Cupressinites elongatus, ,, 
Solenostrobus subangulatus, Bow. | CO. recurvatus, Bow. 
8. corrugatus, Bow. CO. subfusiformis, Bow. 
8. sulcatus, Sequoia Bowerbankii, E. & G. 
S. semiplotus, ,, Pinus Sheppeyensis, » 
Hybothya crassa, Bow. Salishburia eoccenica b 
The only species which I am able to admit are the first and the last 
on the list, but Tadd a new Callitris, Podocarpus, Athrotazis, and Sequoia. 
Similarly in the list of the Alum Bay Flora the following occur :-— 
 Glyptostrobus Ewropeus, Brong. Sequoia Langsdorfii, Brong. 
- Oallitris curta, Bow. Sequoia Coutisie, Heer. 
Oupressinites globosus, Bow. Podocarpus eoccenica, Ung. 
Tam thoroughly acquainted with the specimens on which the above 
are based, and I do not think they afford satisfactory grounds for supposing 
these Conifere to occur at Alum Bay. The beds there are singularly 
poor in Conifer, and all the known specimens of true Conifers from 
them belong to a single polymorphic species, which the attached fruit 
shows to be Podocarpus elegans. 
_ I trust that the results attending the expenditure of the grant we have 
been favoured with may be considered satisfactory, and these I now 
proceed to detail. 
_ _Bracklesham Flora.—T wo visits have been made to Selsey. The beds, 
it is well known, are marine, but a few terrestrial fruits are from time 
to time procured from them. I have been particularly anxious before
