REPORT — 1898. 



Owing to tlie difllculty, in some cases, of defining a mineral species, to the uncer- 

 tainty of some of the determinations, and to the fact that a systematic search 

 througli the whole of the literature has not yet been made, these numbers can only 

 be considered approximate. 



Some of the most notable additions are of minerals which have been detected 

 by the microscopical examination of rock-sections, e.g., nephelite, nosean, and 

 various felspars, pyroxenes, and amphiboles. 



In the following list are added 113 other names which have been applied to 

 British minerals ; the species are distinguished by italics. The first observer and 

 date have been added (in parenthesis) wherever possible; in other cases the 

 earliest reference found is given : —
