THE ESSEX FIELD CLUB. 163 
Considering the late date, a surprising number of phanerogams was 
moted, no less than 135 wild plants, in actual flower, being recorded. - Miss 
E. Prince, who undertook the duties of recorder, reports that the more 
interesting forms met with included Melilotus officinalis, Linum catharticum, 
Hypericum quadrangulum, H. hirsutum, Angelica sylvestris, Helminthia 
echioides, Evigeron acris, Solidago virga-aurea, Lycopsis arvensis, Erythraea 
centaurium, Lycopus euvopaeus, Scutellania galericulata, and Epilobium 
angustifollum. As regards the fungi, the success of the experiment in 
holding a foray in the neighbourhood was evident : over 60 species were 
identified, and when one bears in mind the comparative smallness of the 
party, and the short route traversed, this total appears a very satisfactory 
one. No great rarity was met with; and, as might. be expected, most or 
all of the forms were identical with Epping Forest forms of frequent occur- 
rence. ‘The full list is as follows :—

.a drying pool, a most unusual habitat.
