MASSEE AND CROSSLAND : FUNGUS FORAY. ae 
largest on record, many arriving one or two days before the date of 
the foray; and, thanks to the foresight of the Union officials, an 
expert investigated the locality originally fixed upon—Howden— 
some short time in advance, and finding it unsuitable, owing to the 
exceptional season, Pocklington was substituted ; and although some 
of the party tramped about all the time in low sand-shoes without 
getting wet feet, yet about 180 species of fungi were collected, many 
being new to the county list, and several of special interest on 
account of their peculiarity of structure or rarity. During the 
evenings, the specimens collected during the day were worked out 
and arranged in systematic order ; a short discourse on the general 
nature of fungi was given, illustrated by sketches on the blackboard ; 
sketches illustrating other phases of organic nature were also 
rendered. The weather, as usual, was charming, and everyone left 
Pocklington with a feeling of more than ordinary satisfaction, and 
with a determination to attend the next Yorkshire Fungus Foray.
