Yorkshire Naturalisls at South Cave. 



Wcodlcy Springs. The only tN'pically spring species was Disciotes 

 [Peziza) venosa ; fine specimens were collected at Weedle}' Springs by 

 Miss Hilary, and some curiously contorted examples of this discomycete 

 were found in the Castle grounds. 



Numbers of Pyrenomycetes and allied fungi were collected from 

 ]>lantation debris on Mount Airey. Most of them were forwarded to 

 Sir Henry C. Hawley, who informs me thiit they included some interesting 

 species, seven of which he has kindly identified ; one of them, Anthostoma 

 decipiens (D.C.) Nke, is new to Yorkshire, and two others, Eiitypa 

 flavovirens Tul. and Diatrype stigma Fr. have not been previously recorded 

 for South-east Division.]-
