FUNGUS FORAYS, 1889. 
Cryptogamic Society of Scotland. — The fifteenth annual 
conference will be held at Crieff, Perthshire, on Tuesday, the 17th 
September, at 10 a.m., and following days. Members will learn 
the place of meeting at any of the Hotels on their arrival. 
Woolhope Field Club. — The annual meeting of this Club for 
Fungus Forays will take place as usual during the first week in 
October. The neighbourhood of Ludlow has been selected for the 
excursions of the first two days. The short excursion for the 
Thursday will probably be made to Dinmore, returning in time for 
the annual dinnner. 
Hampshire Field Club. — Forays for two days are being 
organized to take place in the New Forest, but the time has not 
yet been definitely fixed. 
Essex Field Club. — The arrangements for the annual Forays 
in Epping Forest are not completed, or the date fixefl, on account 
of the uncertainty of the weather. Probably some time in October 
will be selected. 
Hackney Natural History Society. — Proposals are being 
entertained for a day excursion in Epping Forest on a Saturday 
near the middle of September, but the precise date has not at 
present been decided upon, probably the 14th. 
Other societies, which in previous years have organized small 
local Forays, at present have made no sign, although it seems 
probable that comparatively early dates would this year have a 
better prospect of success than later ones.
