Field Notes. 263 



CosciiiodiscHs radici/iis, a marine species, was found ver}' 

 plentifully in the lower part of the pulley, but still considerably 

 above high-water mark. It would seem it must have been 

 thrown up by the foam of the waves, and falling into this little 

 stream made itself at home and flourished there. The only 

 other distinctively marine species found in this locality was 

 Melosira nuiniimloides, and this only in very small quantity.

 borough, is reproduced by the permission of the photographer, 

 Mr. J. Duncum, of Beverley.

COLEOPJERA. 

 Anchomenus viduus (Panz) at Hatfield. — On the 21st 

 June I took a specimen of the type of this species at Hatfield 

 Moor. As it would appear that only the variet}' nwesfus (Duft) 

 is recorded for Yorkshire, I thought it worth reporting. — 

 H. V. CoRBETT, Doncaster. 



BOTANY. 

 HypochcBris glabra Linn., in Lincolnshire. — This species 

 has been diligently sought for by Messrs. Lees, Fowler, Fisher, 

 and by Miss Stow and myself. In 1902 Mr. H. C. Hawley 

 finally met with it, and this season has sent me beautiful 

 typical specimens. He took it first in an arable field (peas) on 

 Old River Gravel between Tumby and Coningsby. It is a first 

 record for Lincolnshire. — E. Adrian Woodruffe-Peacock, 

 Cadney, Brigg, July loth, 1906.

OEOLOQY. 

 Fish Remains in the Speeton Clay — During the York- 

 shire Naturalists' Union excursion at Whitsuntide, I found, at 

 Speeton, a number of fossil scales, some spines, etc. of fish. 

 Being unable to find any published information upon these, 

 they were submitted to Dr. A. Smith Woodward, F.R.S., of 

 the British Museum (Natural History), who informs me they 

 chiefly belong to the genus Leptolcpis, but are too incomplete 

 for a specific name. Two of the specimens are typical dentary 

 bones of that genus. These are now in the Hull Museum. — 

 T. Hawkesworth, July ist, 1906.
