To Museums or Private Collectors, these specimens will prove 
invaluable as an easy means of reference and comparison. To the 
Science Student they offer the advantage of a quick and easy 
method of familiarizing the eye with the appearance of the struc- 
ture of thallus and apothecia, and of the different groups of Lichens, 
gonidia, paraphyses, asci, spores, epithecium, hypothecium, and 
thalamium being all represented. 
To the Amateur and those just beginning the study, the examina- 
tion of these specimens will give a better idea of the various 
terms used in describing the shape and size of spores than is possible 
by any written explanation ; at a glance, the meaning of such terms 
as large, small, moderate, or minute spores, and ovoid, oblong, 
fusiform, cylindrical, ellipsoid, polari-bilocular, septate, muriform, 
etc., may be perceived. 
The species marked with an asterisk are either very rare or only 
^recently discovered in Britain. 
LICHENS OF IRELAND. 
Mr. C. Larbalestier, B.A., proposes to issue, during the present 
year, Fasciculi of the Lichens of Ireland, England, and the 
Channel Islands, under the title of “ Larbalestier’s Lichen Her- 
barium.” The series will include a large number of plants which 
are altogether new to Science, or little known to the majority of 
British Lichenists. All communications to be addressed to the 
author, Roche Vue, St. An bin’s, Jersey.
