No. 45, November:—(T. Edwards) The Birds of Strathbeg and its Neighbour- 
bourhood, with a few remarks upon their habits, &c. ; (O. S. Round) The Ring 
Ouzel, Inland Migration; (J. Longmuir, jun.) The Findhorn Heronry; (J. 
Garland) Local Jottings—Dorchester, Dorsetshire; (T. Southwell) Rollesby 
Gullery ; (William Sawers) List of Algae gathered in the North of Ireland. This 
list embraces those which were discovered, in the course of several years, in Loughs 
Foyle and Swilly, and is an evidence of the assiduity with which that well-known 
Irish algolologist, Mr. Sawers, devoted himself to the study of our sea-weeds. 
Among the names we find that of Desmarestia pinnatinervifolia, which was added to 
our fauna by Mr. Sawers, from specimens taken in Lough Foyle. We hope other 
botanists will publish local lists of algae, as their distribution around the Irish coast 
is a subject of much interest. Miscellaneous Notices—Hybrid between Anser Leu-
