To this list Mr. W. Denison Roebuck adds Plerostichus 

 nidiiu/iis, F., and O/ior/iyiic/ius piciprs, F., found in the same 

 neig"hbouihood before the end of the nieetinj^. 



Of HvMENOPTEKA, Mr. M. Lawson Thompson, F.E.S., 

 collected a couple of ichneumon flies, which were submitted 

 to Mr. Claude Morle\', F. F.S., who determined one of them 

 as Lissonofa bclhttur Gr. , ^, and the other, also ^ , as a 

 species of Limticria. 



Mr. (t. T. Porkitt writes : The Niukoptkra and Tkichop- 

 TKKA taken included Hemerobiiis coucinnus^ \ ar. quadrifasciatus, 

 H. lutesci'HS^ H. orofypus, Limnophiltis z'it/ufits, and L. centralis^ 

 of these, Henicrobius orofypus had onl\' previously been recorded 

 from Huddersfield in the countv. 



Mr. C. Crosslan'd writes : — The two days' fungus hunt 

 by the mycologists may be said to have been fairly successful 

 considering the limited area they were confined to. Snippetts 

 and Tocketts Wood were the only places looked into, in addition 

 to the Abbey grounds, on the Guisborough side. On the Kildale 

 side a bit of grand old woodland near Kildale station was 

 worked a few hours on the Monday. Had more time been 

 available it could have been profitably spent here : it was just 

 the type of wood for a mycologist ; over fifty species were 

 collected. More time, coupled with careful search, would have 

 brought to light many other, especially micro species. 



Some of the members instituted a new departure in fungus 

 collecting. They brought some out of one of the ironstone 

 mines they visited ; the fungi were growing on the timber in 

 use in the mine, probably the wood was infected with the 

 mycelium of the several species when taken into the pit. 

 There were Hypholonui fascicuhirt% Porta vaporaria, Mentliiis 

 lac ry ma /IS {dry roi), Sphwria aqiii/n, and a malformed Polyporous 

 sp. not easily determinable. 



As one might expect, the majority of the species collected 

 are of common occurrence. On the other hand, one species, 

 Ryparobius pachyascits Zukel., new to Yorkshire, if not to 

 Britain, was found ; also some half-dozen confirmations of 

 hereto single records were established : often these are quite 

 as valuable as entirely new records. 



All are fust records for Guisbort)Ugh and Kildale. 



In the appended list G ^Guisborough and K Kildale.
