BOTANICAL REPORT — 1 87 9. 7 I 



The few Hepaticae collected included Riccia glmica. 



A few of the commoner Lichens and Fungi were observed. 



Among the Algse collected were Mougeotia genuflexa, Spiro- 

 gyra nitida, Arthrodesmus convergens, Sphoerozos?na vertehratum, 

 Eiiastrum elegans, and many other desmids and diatoms. 



SUMMARY. 



The tabular statement which follows will give an idea of the 

 work done at the meetings, the cryptogamic portion still showing 

 that our cryptogamic workers need recruits, especially in the in- 

 vestigation of Fungi, Lichens, and Algse. It will also be noticed 

 that the success of the rambles has been greater than in previous 

 years, no fewer than 970 species of plants having been recorded 

 at our meetings, and this success ought to encourage us to greater 

 efforts in the coming year.
