In October, 1872, and in March, 1884, I had the honour of 
submitting to the Society lists of Fungi found in the county of 
Norfolk. In the aggregate these included some fifteen hundred 
species. During the past five years the work of investigating the 
Fungus flora of the county has been carried on by my friends the 
Rev. Canon Du Port (J.M.D.P.) of Denver, Mr. Herbert G. Ward 
(II.G.W.) of Terrington St. Clements, and myself. In all about 
a hundred fresh species have been added to our previous lists. 
Personally I have devoted more time to studying the life history of 
two groups of parasitic fungi, the Uredmete and the Ustikajinece, 
than to field-work. The outcome of these researches has been, 
amongst other things, to show that our county is particularly rich 
in both these groups. For instance, no less than seven species of 
heteroecious Pmcinur. new to science have not only been detected, 
but have had their life-histories worked out by experimental 
culture, from material collected in Norfolk.
