Navicula major. *Eunotia lunaris. 



N. viridis. E. lunaris var. bilunaris. 



N. appendiculata. E. exig-ua. 



Pleurosigrna Spencerii. Synedra Ulna. 



*Gomphoiiema constrictum S. acus. 



var. capitatum. Vanheurckia vulgfaris. 



G. acuminatum. Fragfilaria capucina. 



Amphipleura pellucida. ^'Tabellaria flocculosa. 



Cocconeis placentula. Surirella biseriata. 



Eunotia arcus. S. robusta. 



E. pectinalis var. curta. S. (species unknown). 



E. pectinalis var. ventricosa. *Nitzschia sigfmoidea. 



The forms met with more freely were those thus marked *. 

 Tahellaria flocculosa was particularly plentiful in the streamlets 

 on the slopes of the Crag^s, and Nitzschia sigmoidea in the pond. 



Desmids. — The pond yielded the following- forms : — Des- 

 midmm Schwartzii (plentiful), Pleiirofccyiinm trabicula var. 

 clavafa, Closteriiun acerosiim, C. lunula, and a Docidium (un- 

 determined). 



Mr. Moore reports : — The following species were found in 

 the two far ponds in the deer park, the pond near the Lodge, 

 and a pond on the right-hand side of the road leading to Oughti- 

 bridge Station. The pond near the Lodge was very prolific in 

 Anurcea aculeata having great variation in the length of the 

 rear spines, many individuals having a single spine only. 

 ROTIFERA. S3-nchaeta pectinata. 



K \ L S. tremula. 



Anuraea aculeata. 



A. serrulata. Flagellata. 



Xotommata aurita. Anthophysa veg-etans. 



Rotifer vulg-aris. Peridinium tabulatum. 



R. macrurus. Synura uvella. 



Sacculus viridis. Rhizopoda. 



One specimen. Difflugia proteiformis. 



The results altogether were much more satisfactory than we 

 anticipated. 



Mr. E. Hawkesworth stated that the Grenoside rock, though 

 forming a prominent feature in the Crags, was hardly expected 

 to yield many geological specimens. Mr. C. Bradshaw referred 

 to a curious case of current-bedding observed in a block of grit, 

 and also to some casts of plant-remains in the same rock. 



After the meeting most of the members took the opposite 

 direction to Oughtibridge, from which station the return journey 

 was made. This gave them a slightly different aspect of these 

 beautiful woods, and a favoured few heard glowing accounts of 

 the charms and attractions of Wharncliife Woods many, many 

 years ago ! T. S.
