NOTICES TO MEMBEKS 
It should be understood that the s])efialist is not necessaril}' pre- 
pai’ed to name all specimens submitted. In some cases the specialist 
indicated may not yet have attained sufficient knowledge of the group 
he is studying. In other cases the material submitted may be incom- 
l)lete, lacking adequate data or badly prepared. All the specialists will, 
however, do the best they can to identify plants submitted by members. 
Unless it is reasonal)ly certain that specimens will arrive in good 
fresh condition, they should be sent flat in paper between stiff mill- 
boards to prevent shrivelling. Dried pressed specimens may be sent 
similarly. Specimens should be carefully labelled with locality, habitat, 
date and any other notes likely to be of use. Whenever possible speci- 
mens should be submitted in duplicate, so that the specialist may retain 
one specimen if he so desires. Jf only one specimen of a gathering is 
submitted it should be clearly stated whether its leturn is desired. 
Any member who is studying a critical group and would like his 
name added to the Panel should forward particulars to the Hon. General 
Sec retar for consideration by the Council.
