Specimens iwt yet distributed. 



Bofa7ii/. 



Upwards of 1,000 species of dried plants were collected — about 4.30 

 by Mr. Gwynne-Vaughan and upwards of 600 by Mr. R. H. Yapp. 



I understand from Mr. H. Ridley, M.A. (Superintendent of Gardens 

 and Forests, Singapore) that both collections include specimens of much 

 interest. 



In both cases the specimens consisted mainly of Phanerogams and 

 Vascular Cryptogams. They included a number of new flowering plants 

 and probably one or two Ferns. 



Messrs. Gwynne-Vaughan and Yapp have both been engaged in 

 anatomical research on the material, preserved in spirit, collected during 

 tlie expedition. 



A small collection of Algffi have been distributed between Messrs. 

 F. F. Blackman and G. S. West, both of St. John's College, Cambridge. 



A few Fungi -were also collected. They -will probably be undertaken 

 by Mr. R. H. Bifien, of Emmanuel College.
