Yorkshire Naturalists’ Union: Annual Report, Ig10. 35 
their Annual Fungus Foray, between September 17th and 22nd. 
The week’s work was fruitful of good result, some new species 
to science being found. The Secretary, Mr. C. Crossland, has 
prepared a detailed report of the work accomplished, which will 
shortly appear in “ The Naturalist.” 
Speaking generally, a pleasing feature at the excursions 
during the past year has been the number of the older members of 
the Union who have taken part, and given their guidance. In 
this way they have greatly encouraged the younger workers, of 
whom, we are glad to say, we have a constantly increasing number. 
In connection with the Field work and meetings of the Union, 
the following articles have appeared in “‘ The Naturalist ’’—
