326 Yorkshire Naturalists at Ingleton. 
On Monday the remnant of the members ascended Ingle- 
borough under fairly favourable conditions, and the following 
plants were noted among others :— 
Act@éa spicata. Avenaria veyna. 
Sagina nodosa. Thlaspi alpestve var. occidentale. 
Sedum villosum. Lycopodium selago. 
, Rhodiola. 33 clavatum. 
Saxtfraga oppositifolia. 3 alpinum. 
», Aypnotdes. Selaginella selaginoides. 
Saxifraga Geum was brought in from Hurtle Pot, and 
reported to be in flourishing condition. 
Mr. C. CROSSLAND writes :—The mycological section was 
represented by Messrs. M. Malone and J. W. H. Johnson. 
They collected over sixty species of fungi; thirty-nine of 
which were agarics. Considering the past dry scorching 
weather, this may be considered satisfactory. The drop of 
rain on Saturday and Sunday stirred up the Coprinii, five 
species being seen on the Monday. Nothing out of the ordinary 
was met with. 
The following are new records for the N.W. division :— 
Omphalia pyxidata. Bolbitius fragilis. 
Omphalia sphagnicola. Psathyva obtusata. 
Galera campanulata. | Russula semicrema. 
Mycena peliculosa. | Galera mycenopsis. 
A hypnorum, Russula alutacea. 
var. sphagnorum.

NEUROPTERA AND TRICHOPTERA.—On Monday, Mr. G..T. 
PoRRITT spent several hours in the vicinity of the river at 
Ingleton, but, owing to the strong wind, and the swollen state 
of the waters, consequent on the heavy rains of the two previous 
days, little could be done. A very interesting trichopteron, 
however, turned up in Neuwreclipsis bimaculata, of which the 
only previously recorded Yorkshire specimens were taken by 
Mr. Porritt, on the river Ure at Masham, on the Yorkshire 
Naturalists’ Union’s Excursion there on August 5th, rgor, just 
ten years ago. Mormoma hirta was common, and Silo pallipes 
and other species were about. The only neuropteron of note 
was Hemerobius orotypus, which occurred by beating the trees 
on the steep slope rising from the left bank of the river. Leuctra 
klapaleki abounded, of course; and a large dragon-fly was on 
the wing, but it did not come near enough for its identity 
to be established.—T. 5.
