REPORT  FOR  1905-6. 
It  is  pleasing  to  be  able  to  report  two  very  noticeable 
features  in  regard  to  the  distribution  of  plants  this 
season;  namely,  that  the  number  of  sheets  sent  in  was 
2846,  or  about  800  more  than  last  year;  and  that  the 
specimens  were — on  the  whole — better  prepared,  and 
equally,  if  not  more,  interesting  than  those  contributed 
last  season  ;  there  is,  however,  still  room  for  improve¬ 
ment.  I  must  once  more  impress  upon  members  the 
importance  of  paying  greater  attention  to  the  critical 
genera,  in  most  cases  they  are  poorly  represented  this 
year. 
Mr.  Bickham  again  has  the  premier  honours  with  403 
sheets ;  and  Mr.  A.  R.  Horwood,  a  new  member,  comes 
next  with  379  sheets.
