Prize IX. — Mr. Robert J. Welch has sent in a collection of 

 fossils from the Lias rocks, mainly from Islandmagee, in com- 

 petition for prize 9. This is a highly creditable collection, 

 embracing over 30 species, represented by more than 300 

 specimens. They are, in general, excellent examples, and 

 illustrate very well the species they represent, and we have no 

 hesitation in deciding that Mr. Welch's collection is well worthy 

 of the Club's prize.

For Prize XX.— Mr. R. LI. Praeger sent me, from time to 

 time during the past year, nearly 200 species of Fungi, which 

 are well deserving of the prize. There was no other competitor.
