ALG^. 



I made small collections of Algse from near -low water 

 mark on the shore at two points where we happened to 

 be on land at the right state of the tide, viz. : at the 

 Island of Inishbofin off the coast of Connemara on 

 August 15th, and at Galway on August 17th. The speci- 

 mens were handed over to Mr. Harvey-Gibson, and they 

 have been identified in his laboratory and under his 

 supervision by Miss A. E. Warham, B.Sc, who has 

 furnished me with the following lists. 



The collection of Marine Algse is a small one, and 

 contains few species of any rarity. Amongst the more 

 interesting forms are Dermocarpa schousboei, Halopteris 

 filicina, Ascocyclus reptans, Lomentaria clavellosa, Ghylo- 

 cladia ovalis, and C. haliformis. All the other species 

 are common. The nomenclature adopted is that of 

 Holmes and Batters' " Eevised List of British Marine 

 Algse." (Ann. Bot., vol. v., p. 63). 



Species found at Inishbofin are indicated by the figure 

 (1), those at Galway Bay by (2).
