We are also pleased to report a considerable increase of 

 Members since last Annual Meeting. 



Our Herbarium, which was in a very disorganised condition, 

 has been very carefully re-arranged, all the plants are named and 

 numbered according to the 9th Edition of the London Catalogue, 

 the underlined plants in the Herbarium Copy are now all to be 

 found in their proper places ; by this arrangement any plant wanted 

 for reference can be easily found. During the Session about 

 thirty carefully mounted Sheets of plants have been added, 

 bringing the total number of species up to nearly 900, which 

 fairly represent not only the Flora of our district, but also that of 

 Ireland ; typical English and Scotch plants are also well 

 represented. 



As to the Field work done during the Summer Session the 

 results are nearly all enumerated in a paper read before the 

 Section by Mr. W. J. C. Tomlinson, and fully reported in your 

 Proceedings. A few other special finds worthy of notice are as 

 follows : —
