who contributes the appended list of species observed. He 
stated there were only two of the Committee present, Mr. James 
Needham, Hebden Bridge, and himself. The Easington and 
Roxby Woods were both carefully worked. The previous dry 
weather had hardened the tenacious soil and dried the decaying 
searching microscopic examination, had to be taken home for 
that purpose. These 68 species consisted of 37 Agaricini, 
2 Polyporeew, 2 Thelophore, 1 Clavariex, 1 Gastromycete, 
12 Uredinez, 7 Discomycetes, 2 Pyrenees 2 Ustilaginez 
and 2 Myxogastres. Many of those found are anything but 
common while others may be found almost anywhere. Fine 
specimens of Polyporus sguamosus, 12 to 15 inches diameter, were 
seen growing out of the trunk of a dead tree. The lovely 
scarlet Mycena strobilina Fr. var. coccinea Sow. was found 
growing on a decaying larch twig on the ground. The 
Uredines were considered to be in profusion, as it is seldom 
_ we find so many species of Laan fungi within so small an 
area. The list is as follow
