28 SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA ACADEMY OF SCIENCES. 



Notes. 



We have received from Dr. L,. G. Yates a reprint from Bulletin 3 of the 

 Santa Barbara Natural History Society which contains a list with the known 

 localities of the Marine Algae of Santa Barbara county. The list is some- 

 what smaller than we would have anticipated and further investigation will 

 probably add many other species to the number. 



Students of Mycology will be charmed by the illustrations in Bulletin 

 No. 3 of the Lloyd Library, Cincinnati. Mr. Lloyd particularly desires ripe 

 specimens of Earth stars and Puff-balls from anywhere and everywhere. 

 Any specimens sent will be gratefully received and duly acknowledged. 



The California Academy of Sciences has recently acquired a specimen 

 of the Elf Owl from near San Bernardino and a Rivoli hummingbird 

 from the San Gorgonio Pass — both first records from California. Auk, Vol. 

 XIX, No. I.
