YORKSHIRE NATURALISTS’ UNION.
FORTY-FOURTH ANNUAL REPORT, FOR 1905. Nod 14-146
%6AZ4 Presented at Bradford, January 27th, 1906. LIBRARY
Your Executive Committee has pleasure in submitting the
following report on the year’s work of the Union, and of its
Committees and Sections.
The Forty-third Annual Meeting was held at Leeds
on Saturday, December 17th, in the Philosophical and Literary
Society’s rooms. Two excursions preceded the business meeting ;
one consisting of Geologists, under the leadership of Mr. E.
Hawkesworth; the.other under the leadership of Messrs. S.
Margerison and A. White, visited Roundhay Park.and_ the
greenhouses.
At the General Meeting, under the chairmanship of Mr. H.
C. Marsh, Mr. A. H. Pawson delivered his Presidential Address
entitled ‘‘ Weeds,” which was printed in the ‘‘ Naturalist” for
January last.*
After the Address, a Conversazione was held in the Museum
and adjoining rooms, several special exhibits having been
arranged, and refreshments kindly provided by the various
Leeds Societies.
The Ordinary Field Meetings during the year have
been five in number, and were held as under—detailed reports
of which, prepared by the Hon. Secretary, appeared in the
‘* Naturalist” in the issues immediately following the meetings.
In addition the usual Fungus Foray was held, and duly reported
upon by Mr. Crossland :—
1905. May 6th (Saturday)—Ripon.
June 1oth to r2th (Whit Week-end)—Askrigg.
July 8th to roth (Week-end)—Loftus.
August 5th to 7th (August Bank Holiday Week-end)—Pocklington.
September gth (Saturday)—Barnsley.
September 23rd to 28 (Fungus Foray)—Maltby and Roche Abbey.
Ripon.—At this the first excursion for the year there was
a large attendance. The members met at the Town Hall, where
the Town Clerk shewed some of Ripon’s ancient records, and
also the natural history collections stored there pending a more
suitable home for them being found. The banks of the Skell
* The same issue contains a more detailed account of this Annual Meeting.
2 YORKSHIRE NATURALISTS’ UNION.
and the Fountains Abbey grounds were investigated, under the
guidance of Messrs. B. M. Smith and T. Pratt. Mr. Pawson
presided at the meeting held after tea, and ten new members
were elected.
Askrigg.—Whit week-end was spent in this delightful
district; Whitfield Gill, the fells beyond, Muker, Kisdon Force,
and Semmerwater being amongst the places visited. The party
had the advantage of the leadership of Messrs. W. Horne and
J. Hartshorn, of Leyburn. Mr. Horne gave an address ‘‘ On the
Geology and Pre-historic Remains of the District,’ and Mr. Cosmo
Johns introduced a discussion on methods of mapping. Mr.
Johns’ remarks have since been put in concrete form and printed in
the September ‘‘ Naturalist.” Four new members were elected
at this meeting.
Loftus.—A pleasant week-end was spent on the Cleveland
Hills, at Loftus, from July 8th to roth. Mr. J. J. Burton and his son,
Mr. G. A. Burton, assisted and allowed the members to visit the
Liverton Ironstone Mine and workings. On the Monday the
various sections were under the leadership of Messrs. W. G.
Smith, Ph.D., T. A. Lofthouse, M. L. Thompson, K. MacLean,
and J. W. Stather respectively. The coast between Kilton Beck
and Staithes was examined by the geologists, who also spent a
day in investigating the plant bed at Marske. At the evening
meetings, Mr. Burton gave an account of the geology of the
district, Dr. Smith referred to the local plant associations, &c.,
and an interesting discussion also took place relating to the origin
of the iron in the Cleveland ore. Four new members were elected.
Pocklington.—-The 189th meeting was held at Pocklington,
on August Bank Holiday week-end. Nunburnholme, the home of
the late F. O. Morris was visited, and the Rector, the Rev. M. C.
F. Morris, kindly showed the members round. Warter Priory
was also visited on the Saturday, and subsequently Allerthorpe
Common, Yapham, Givendale, and Millington were investigated.
Mr. Porritt presided at the tea on Bank Holiday. Four new
members were elected.
Barnsley.—Cudworth and Barnsley were visited on Sep-
tember gth. Geological sections were examined near the railway,
and on Houghton Common, and work for the remainder of the
party was also found on the Common and in the adjoining woods.
Messrs. A. Whitaker, H. B. Nash, and other local workers helped
a good deal towards the success of the meeting. After tea a
meeting was held in the excellent rooms of the Barnsley
Naturalists’ Society. Three new members were elected.
FORTY-FOURTH ANNUAL REPORT, FOR I90O5. 3
Maltby.—Five days were spent in examining the Maltby and
Roche Abbey district by the members of the Mycological Com-
mittee, towards the end of September. As in previous years most
excellent work was accomplished, though all the material collected
has not as yet been thoroughly examined. Two new members
were elected.
Speaking of the excursions generally, it can be safely said
that upon the amount of solid work accomplished on,them depends
very largely the success of the Union. Whilst the day meeting's
are, perhaps, too short for very much work being accomplished,
still much has been done on these occasions, whilst upon the two
and three days’ outings the results have been most gratifying.
And at the excursions there is every evidence of an intention of all
those present to thoroughly examine the district so far as their
particular sections are concerned, and the holiday-picnic type of
excursionist, of whom we hear so much in some other societies in
the country, is absent from the meetings of the Yorkshire
Naturalists’ Union.
The evenings during the week-end excursions are also
profitably occupied by discussing various suitable topics. Asa
result of the Loftus meeting, it is recommended that another
excursion be held in the Cleveland area in 1906, when the question
of the Ironstone shall be thoroughly discussed. It is also hoped
that during the coming year something definite may be done by
the Union in regard to a worker’s map of the county.
It should here be remarked that the promptness with which
the results of the work accomplished on these excursions has
appeared in the ‘‘ Naturalist,’’ has considerably increased the
value of that journal, as well as added an interest to the excursions
themselves.
Excursion Programmes giving particulars of the districts
visited have been circulated prior to each meeting, as in past years.
| Permission to visit Estates has been kindly granted
| by the landed gentry of the county.
Railway facilities have also been generously given “by
| the various Railway Companies, as in previous years.
Excursions for 1906.—The following are the places and
| dates for excursions for 1906 :—
For York N.W.—Ingleton (Week-end, second week in May).
For York S.E.—Flamborough (Whit Week-end, June 3rd to 5th).
For York Mid W.—Fewston for Washburn Valley (end of June).
For York S.W.—-Askern (Thursday, middle of July).
For York N.E.—Guisborough (August 18-20).
Fungus Foray at Farnley Tyas, near Huddersfield (September 22-26),
4 YORKSHIRE NATURALISTS’ UNION.
Annual Meeting for 1906.—The next Annual Meeting
will be held at York, by invitation of the York and District Field
Naturalists’ Society.
Winter Lecture Scheme.—Judging from the various
syllabuses of Societies received by the Secretary, the Societies
affliated with the Union are taking full advantage of the
Union’s lecturers. Whilst the Societies admittedly derive much
benefit from the scheme, the Union has no apparent direct
benefit—though, indirectly, of course the Union is the gainer. The
Hon. Secretary has been instructed to prepare a revised list of
lectures, which will be distributed shortly.
Objects of the Union.—The Secretary will supply circulars
setting forth the objects and aims of the Union on application.
The Societies affiliated with the Union show a gradual
increase in numbers. Four new Societies have become affiliated
during the year, viz :—The Bootham School Natural History Club
(York); the Goole Scientific Society ; the Lindley Naturalist and
Photographic Society ; and the Crosshills and District Naturalists’
Association. During the year the Bradford Scientific Association
and the Hull Geological Society have increased their subscription
to the full affiliated fee, and the Milusbridge Naturalists’ Society
has increased its subscription to 41 1s. in consequence of the
benefit derived from the Winter Lecture Scheme. There are now
thirty-seven Societies affiliated with the Union; the total member-
ship of which is 2900. |
The Statistics furnished by the Secretaries of the various
Societies to the Secretary of the Union show that the average
membership of the Societies is 75, or a total of 2900, as
already stated. Added to this, the membership of the Union, the —
total numerical strength is 3325.
The Membership of the Union now stands at 425 (including
Societies), an increase of 19, compared with last year.
_ The following new members* have been elected during the
year :—
Abbott, J., School House, Anlaby, Hull.
Ackroyd, J., 39, King Street, Heckmondwike.
Blagborough, F. G., 10, Spring Bank, Manningham, Bradford.

FORTY-FOURTH ANNUAL REPORT, FOR I90O5. vi
‘Mr. W. D. RoEBUCK’s PRESIDENTIAL ADDRESS for 1904,
entitled ‘The salient features connected with the History of the
Union,’ was issued to the members, as a separate pamphlet, in
January last. The address has been issued absolutely without
cost to the Yorkshire Naturalists’ Union; this has been borne
equally by Messrs. Denison Roebuck and John Farrah.
‘“¢Funcus Ftora.’—The unremitting labours of Mr. C.
Crossland and his colleagues, Mr. G. Massee and others, during
the past summer, resulted in the completion in September of the
second, and final part of the ‘ Fungus Flora of Yorkshire.’ This
contained no fewer than 350 pages, and was distributed free to
each member of the Union. Through the nelp of the Mycological
Committee and its friends, as well as of the publishers (Messrs. A.
Brown & Sons, Ltd.), this was issued without any cost whatever
(beyond postage) to the Union’s funds.
The Fungus Flora of our county is another completed
memoir, and it is to be hoped that all the members will do their
best to aid the work by seeing it purchased for local libraries, &c.
(Cloth 10/6 net).
‘¢* BAKER’s NORTH YORKSHIRE.’—AsS a result of the decision
of your Executive a year ago, Messrs. J. G. Baker and M. B.
Slater (who has prepared the section devoted to the Mosses) have
been hard at work completing this valuable Memoir. An Index
to the flowering plants and ferns, and a Geographical Index, have
been printed off, as well as 220 pages of the Mosses and Hepatics.
There is every probability of the completing part of this work
being printed off early in 1906, and distributed to the members.
At the same time the complete work will be put on the market,
the sale from which will, itis hoped, pay for the printing of the
final part, as well as put money into the coffers of the Union.
Thus still another of the Union’s long-contemplated monographs
will be an accomplished fact.
‘¢<« Brrps OF YORKSHIRE.’—The publication of this work has
occupied the serious attention of your Executive and Officers
during the past year. It was found that on the basis of the lowest
tender the work was just twice the size that could be issued by the
number of subscribers at a guinea (250). From its past experience
your Executive was determined that on no account whatever
should any publication be launched which might result in the Union
being in financial straits. Fortunately, the Union’s publishers
came forward with an offer to take over the responsibility of the
work, issue a two-volume edition to each subscriber, and pay the
Union the sum of 440 for the copyright. After carefully con-
sidering the matter, and ascertaining whether better terms could
be obtained elsewhere, the Executive gratefully accepted Messrs.
Brown’s offer.

‘© ¢ MISCELLANEOUS VOLUME, PART 2. ‘Towards this we: have
in hand MSS. of an appendix to the Flora of Dewsbury; the
list of Fungi taken at Maltby; the Geological Bibliographies
for 1902-1905, and a list of the members, and also the reprints
of the Excursion Programmes for 1905, which are already
printed off, and this report.
SECTIONS.
The President and Secretary of the Union are ex-officio Members
of all the Sections and Committees.
Vertebrate Section.—Mr. R. Fortune writes :—There is
- nothing very special to report. The meetings have not been well
attended, and we hope that during the 1906 season, all the members
of this section will do their best to attend the excursions.
‘* BIRDS OF YORKSHIRE.”—Mr. Nelson has now completed his
_ labors in connection with this work, and satisfactory arrangements
having been made for publishing the book, the work is being
proceeded with.
The following were elected for 1906 :—
President—T. H. Nelson, Redcar.
Secretaries—H. B. Booth, Bradford; R. Fortune, Harrogate ;
A. White, Leeds.
Representative on Executive—R. Fortune.
Representative on Committee of Suggestions—A. White.
Entomological Section, 1905.—Mr. William Hewett
and Mr. Arthur Whittaker report that the season on the whole
may be considered as having been a satisfactory one from an
Entomological standpoint. Two new species, Aczdalia emutaria
and Euchromia mygindana, have been added to the county list.
Good work has been done in many districts, and very many
interesting and local species have been obtained, whilst it is
evident that ‘‘Melanism” is still on the increase, the latest
species to show this phase of development being Agvodzs agathina
from near Penistone, obtained by Mr. Morley of Skelmanthorpe.
The causes of the relative abundance or scarcity of different
species from year to year, and the gradual extension or diminu-
tion of their areas of distribution are alike interesting subjects
for the consideration of, and if possible, solution by all enthusi-
astic and intelligent Entomologists. Details of the various
captures, &c., will appear in the ‘‘ Naturalist ” shortly.
FORTY-FOURTH ANNUAL REPORT, FOR I905. 9
The following were elected for 1906 :—
President—L. S. Brady, Sheffield.
Secretaries—W. Hewett, York; A. Whitaker, Barnsley.
Representative on Executive—W. Hewett.
Representatives on Committee of Suggestions—G. T. Porritt
and W. Hewett.
Conchological Section.—Mr. T. Castle writes :—Fairly
good results have been made at the Union meetings during the
past year, although the dryness of the excursion season has had
its influence upon land mollusca. Progress has, however, been
made, as the various reports in the ‘‘ Naturalist”? show. A brief
summary of the work is appended. Continued and increasing
interest in this branch of the Union’s work is also manifest.
Mr. J. E. Crowther recorded six slugs, twenty-two land and
eight fresh-water species at Ripon on May 6th, including an
exceptional find of Vztvea vogerst, and the occurrence of some
species in abundance, notably Anadonta cygnea, in the Skell below
the lake at Studley, and Unio pictorum, Bythinia tentaculata, and
Sphaerium corneum, in the bed of the lake; but the full list of the
fresh-water species named on the circulars was not reached owing
to the lack of opportunities on the excursion, a full report of which
was given in the June issue of the ‘‘ Naturalist.”
AskricG.—The section was represented on this excursion
by Mr. T. Castle, who enumerated three slugs, twenty land and
six fresh-water species, but, owing to several weeks’ continued
drought previous to our arrival at Askrigg, the land mollusca had
suffered considerably. Helix lapicida was especially noticeable
on the Leyburn Road near Nappa Hall, a limited stretch of old
wall yielding large numbers; but some disappointment was met
with at Semmerwater by the scarcity of species, only six being
recorded, one of the commonest kind elsewhere, viz., Limnea
peregva, being represented by only one specimen, and several other
kinds were absent from the streams in other parts of the district.
Lorrus.—On account of the unavoidable absence of the
Secretaries no report was made respecting the excursion, but,
judging from the Union circular, conchologists present ought to
have had good results.
POCKLINGTON.—The Rev. F. H. Woods _ reported _ nine
species of land and five fresh-water shells in the September issue
of the ‘‘ Naturalist’ as having been recorded on this excursion,
including several interesting varieties. |
BARNSLEY.—On this excursion Mr. J. E. Crowther re-
ported that conchologically the meeting was not a complete success
on account of the unsuitability of the ground traversed, although

two slugs and three land- and fourteen fresh-water species of
shells were noted, the canal especially proving a good sphere of
operations and rich in species not common everywhere. One
species, Avzon minimus, had not been previously recorded for
the Barnsley district.
Mr. F. Booth reported the occurrence of Sphaerium pallidunr
at Salterhebble on March rrth.
The following were elected for 1g06:—
President—W. Denison Roebuck, Leeds.
Secretaries—J. E. Crowther, Elland; T. Castle, Heckmond-
wike.
Representative on Executive—J. E. Crowther.
Representative on Committee of Suggestions—J. W. Taylor.
Botanical Section.—Mr. J. F. Robinson writes :—Not-
withstanding the opening out of new lines in the Botanical field, it
is pleasing to note that there seems no diminution of interest in
the older ‘‘floristic” work. On the contrary, the now prompt and
excellent reports of the Union’s Field Meetings seem to show that
systematic botany is receiving increased attention in these days,
new names of active botanists frequently coming to the front in
this respect. This is evidenced by reference to the reports just
referred to, and to some of us of the older school very pleasant
associations were awakened at the sight of the lists of flowering
plants seen at, and near Fountains Abbey (Y.N.U. at Ripon) ; |
Semmerwater (Y.N.U. at Askrigg) ; and Kilton Woods (Y.N.U.
at Loftus). It may be trespassing somewhat on the work of
the new Botanical Survey Section, but one of the more interest-
ing features of these lists to an older botanist is the fact that,
had the names of the several districts been withheld, each of
the latter could almost be identified by observation alone of the
grouping of the plants in the lists.
We are glad to note that the disposition to observe and
note, rather than to remove or extirpate, is growing, and in
view of this one is glad to see confirmation of several old and
interesting records as still ‘‘at home” in their former stations.
The botanical work in the affiliated Societies goes on un-
abated as heretofore. If no new or rare plants have been
discovered: during the past year, still, several new localities of
less common ones have been made out, and must go down to
the credit of the local Societies and their members or associated
private workers. Thus Aguz/egia vulgaris (Columbine) is new
for Langstrothdale (vde ‘‘ Naturalist,” April, 1905, page 117).
Speroularia rubra has a position, near Sheffield, at a higher
elevation (above 500 feet) than has been previously noted ;
FORTY-FOURTH ANNUAL REPORT, FOR I9QO5. rt
Astragalus danicus Retz. (vel. A. Aypoglotiis Linn.), nowhere
common in Yorkshire, has had a new station added to the
Flora of the East Riding, namely, at Garton-on-the-Wolds.
Serratula tinctorta Linn., hitherto meagrely recorded for V.C. 63,
was found in fair abundance near Bentley, Doncaster. Rosa
spinosissima is now recorded from the wolds, whilst Leonurus
Cardiaca, only a ‘‘ denizen,” of course, is nevertheless, new to
the East Riding at Barlby, and finally it may be mentioned
that there seems to have come upon us a sort of fresh orchid
hunting fervour, if one may judge from the several new localities
discovered during the past and previous years, for that tiny and
seldom seen member of the order—Malaxis paludosa.
Who can cry ‘finality’ in any department of botanical
science ?
Only one suggestion have the Secretaries of the phanerogamic
section to make, and that is with reference to the more thorough
study of ‘‘ critical” species for which there is such fine oppor-
tunities in the area dominated by the Y.N.U. Valuable increase
to our knowledge of plants and their history might accrue from
fresh application to this branch. At all events it might tend to
clear up one’s views of the word ‘‘species,” and settle for good
whether this is not altogether too artificial and arbitrary a term
to be used, at least in plant natural history.
The following were elected for 1906.—
President—W. G. Smith, Ph.D., Leeds.
Secretaries—H. H. Corbett, Doncaster; J. F. Robinson, Hull.
Representative on Executive—P. Fox Lee.
Representative on Committee of Suggestions—S. Margerison.
Geological Section.—Mr. Cosmo Johns, F.G.S., writes :
The various excursions of the Union were well attended by
members of the Geological section, and with the exception
of that at Ripon, one or more sectional officers were always
present. Asa detailed report of the work done at each excursion
appeared in the following number of the ‘‘ Naturalist,” it will not
be necessary here to do more than indicate its bearing on that to be
attempted during the coming season. To be effective, the work
done should be capable of co-ordination and of being worked up
later into something more valuable than mere scattered notes.
To this end the sectional work should always have in view one
or more of the problems bearing on the life history of the rocks
of Yorkshire. For instance at Askrigg we were confronted with
| the unsolved problem of connecting the Carboniferous rocks north
of the Craven Faults with those to the south, and to determine the
age and sequence of the earth movements that produced the great
I2 YORKSHIRE NATURALISTS’ UNION.
difference in the two areas, the line of the Craven Faults being
taken as the critical region. It is a problem that Yorkshire
geologists must face, and solve if possible. At Loftus it was the
famous Cleveland Ironstone that demanded attention, though ina
district so full of geological interest it was only one among many
other interesting features. It had this difference, however, that
from its immense economic value to the county, it calls for every
effort to elucidate its genises and extent. The strong recommen-
dation from the meeting that an effort should be made during the
next season to devote the necessary time for a thorough investi-
gation of this most important deposit, will, it is hoped, receive the
sympathetic consideration of the Union. At Pocklington, the oft
debated question as to the occurence of ¢rwe Rhaetic beds there
was taken up again, and though as much time as could be spared
was given to the investigation, with the conclusion that the
question must be answered in the negative, it is not pretended
that the problem has been definitely solved, and the next time the
Union visits the district, steps should be taken to open out a clear
section and decide, once for all, the part played by the Market
Weighton Axis, when the Liassic sea spread over the land. These
are a few only, of the many problems that came under the con-
sideration of the section during the year. They serve to indicate
that there remains much to do. Work that will require patient
and systematic investigation for many years before definite con-
clusions can be arrived at. To that end special attention should
be given at future excursions to the most pressing problems in
each district visited.
The following were elected for 1906: —
President—-Cosmo Johns, Sheffield.
Secretaries—A. J. Stather, Hull; E. Hawkesworth, Leeds.
Representative on Executive—Godfrey Bingley.

Yorkshire Coleoptera Committee.—Mr. M. L. Thomp-
son writes that members of the Committee attended the meetings
of the Union at Ripon, Askrigg, Loftus, and Cudworth. At Ripon
fifty-four species of coleoptera were met with along the route to
Studley and through the grounds of Fountains Abbey, including
Phyllotreta tetrastigma, an insect new to the county. Forty-two
beetles were taken at Askrigg and on the shore of the Semmer-
water, amongst them being the brilliant Chlenzus nigricornis and
the local Celiodes gerantt. Of the thirty-two species met with at
the Loftus meeting the most interesting was Dorytomus pectoralis.
A number of very interesting and uncommon insects belong-
ing to this order have been taken by individual members working
in various localities. These include Szenolophus elegans at 'Thorne
Moor; Aygronoma dimidiata, Clytus mysticus, Atactogenus exaratus,
Trachyphleus aristatus, &c., from the Doncaster District ; Homa-
lota elegantula, Phytosus balticus, Salpingus ater, Llybius fenestratus
at Saltburn; and Coccidula scutellata at Barnsley.
It is proposed to publish in the ‘‘ Naturalist’ an account of
observations on Yorkshire coleoptera made during the last two
years; and it is hoped that notes on the subject will be sent to the
Secretary as early as possible to enable this to be done.
The Committee was re-appointed as follows :—
Chairman—M. L. Thompson, Saltburn.
Convener—E. G. Bayford, Barnsley.
Representative on Executive—H. Ostheide.

W. E. Morse, Leeds.
Boulder Committee.—The members of this Committee
appear to have kept the object of the Committee’s work before
| them during the past year, notwithstanding the fact that cataloguing
| of the larger boulders of the county appears to have been fairly
| well done. The East Riding Boulder Committee has also con-
| tinued its investigations, particularly as regards the arrangement
| and proportions of various boulders and pebbles in the different
horizons in drift deposits. Details of these investigations, which
| are not completed, will be published later. Mr. M. Ling records

a boulder of Skiddaw Chiastolite Slate from Withernsea. Dr.
F. F. Walton records a Belemnite of the mucronata type from
Aldborough, the alveolar cavity of which is filled with black flint.
At Atwick, Mr. J. W. Stather has measured the largest boulder
of Carboniferous Limestone yet found in the district. Its di-
mensions are 9’ X 5'X x. Mr. T. Sheppard records recent
‘‘finds”’ of portions of mammoth tusk at Easington and Ald-
borough, and a very fine tooth of the same species from Withernsea.

Yorkshire Bryological Committee.—Mr. W. Ingham,
B.A., writes :—The year 1905 has been a very successful one for
Mosses and Hepatics.
The excursions to Ripon, Askrigg, and Pocklington were
attended by members of this Committee, and detailed reports
have appeared in the ‘‘ Naturalist.”
The most noteworthy plants discovered during the year are
as follows :—Lophozta tn4#ata var. compacta Nees on a mass of
millstone grit in Shipley Glen, Bradford, 13th February, 1905,
and var. /axa Nees on the moors between Buckden and Arnclifte.
Aplozia Goulardi (Husnot) near Falling Foss, Robin Hood’s
Bay, a Hepatic new to the British Isles, and found by me on
16th Sept., 1905. Pedinophyllum tnterruptum var. pyrenaicum
(Spruce), on rock ledges by Redimire Fall in Wensleydale, June
1905. This habitat and the one at Malham in 1857 by Carrington
are the only records for ‘‘ pyrenaicum” in the British Isles.
Of mosses, Hypnum vernicosum is plentiful among the Globe
Flowers and Bird’s-Eye Primroses at the side of Semmerwater,
and is worthy of record as a definite locality for a rare and
obscurely understood moss.
In the June ‘‘ Naturalist,” an important new variety of
Hepatic was described and illustrated.

Mycological Committees.—Mr. C. Crossland reports :—
Mycological work has again been steadily pursued throughout
the year. The results have been most satisfactory, and have,
from time to time, been published in the ‘‘ Naturalist.””. The paper
on the ‘‘ Fungus Flora of a Cast-out Hearthrug,” by Mr. Need-
ham and myself, read at the Rokeby Foray, was printed in the
Dec., 1904, issue. Mr. Hollands’ paper (III.) on ‘‘ Economic
Fungi,” read at the same foray, appeared in March and April, 1905.
In the May number Mr. Gibbs recorded one new Yorkshire and
one new British species. The June number contained notes on
three new Yorkshire species, by Mr. W. N. Cheesman; on one
new to North East Yorkshire, by Mr. W. Ingham ; and on two
new to Britain found at Masham, by Mr. W. A. Thwaites. A
note on a new Yorkshire mould appeared in August.
The writer has attended four of the Union excursions. At
Pocklington, Hebeloma subsaponaceum Karst., new to Britain, was
found, and at Cudworth a Cantharellus, not yet determined.
The Annual Fungus Foray, held this year in the Roche Abbey
district, was in every way a decided success ; a full report appears
in the ‘‘ Naturalist”? for Nov. and Dec. The list of species found
is held over for the ‘‘ Transactions.’”’ Mr. Holland’s fourth paper
on ‘‘Economic Fungi” was read at this meeting, concluding a
most valuable series on that side of the subject.
Everywhere there has been a most prolific crop of fungi
this season: they have been abundant both in field and woodland.
While out near Huddersfield with Mr. A. Clarke in Sept., an old
woodside pasture, of about two acres, was overhauled, and yielded
no less than thirty species. Many uncommon things have been
met with by individual effort; in Oct. Mr. Thos. Hebden found
Pholtota heteroclita near Wilsden, and the remarkable Cortinarius
triumphans near Cullingworth; and Mr. Warnes Aypholoma
leucotephrum near Withernsea, all new Yorkshire species. Several
| a have been found, and are being published in the ‘‘Natu-
ralist.”’
During the year the ‘‘ Yorkshire Fungus Flora” has been
issued, the publication of which has established a foundation
whereon further research in the same direction can be based.

Wild Birds’ and Eggs’ Protection Committee.—
Mr. R. Fortune writes :—The members of this section are to be
congratulated upon the fact that the County Councils of Yorkshire
have, with only one or two minor alterations, adopted the
suggestion of the Union for the better protection of birds and their
eggs in the county. The full schedule is published in the
December ‘‘ Naturalist.”
We should like to appeal to all Yorkshire ornithologists to
aid the authorities with all their power, to see that the provisions
of the Act are carried out, and specially would we ask that the
following species, be accorded special protection. They are all in
imminent danger of being exterminated as species nesting in the
county :—Teregrine Falcon, Common Buzzard, Raven, Stone
Curlew, and Great Crested Grebe.

Yorkshire Botanical Survey Committee.—The Con-
vener (Dr. W. G. Smith), reports :—‘‘ This Committee has been
represented at most of the excursions, and progress has been
made in the collection of information on the distribution of plants
in Yorkshire. At the Askrigg Meeting an experiment was made
in organising parties to supplement the observations of the main
party for each day. Almost every botanist present contributed
something either to the map survey, or in the preparation of lists;
all the material was handed over to Mr. Hartshorn (Leyburn),
who has undertaken the vegetation survey of Wensleydale district.
The chief results were given in the ‘‘ Naturalist’ for July. Loftus
was less fruitful because so few botanists were able to remain over
the week-end (see ‘‘ Naturalist,” August, 1905). At Pocklington,
Mr. Crossland made a valuable set of observations, which were
communicated to me, and appeared in the ‘‘ Naturalist”” (November,
1905, p. 348). The growing interest in this side of Botany is
indicated by the papers which appear in the ‘‘ Naturalist ”’ almost
monthly. Mr. Woodhead’s absence in Switzerland has reduced
our working capacity, but his return from one of the great centres _
of activity will throw new energy into the work. The scarcity of
botanists at the excursions hampers us somewhat, and it is to be
hoped that next vear we shall find more of them ready for survey
work ; the younger workers will find much requiring to be done.”
The following were elected for 1906 :—
Chairman—John Farrah, Harrogate.
Convener and Representative on Executive and Committee of

W. E. L. Wattam, Huddersfield.
Committee of Suggestions for Research.—Dr. W.
G. Smith writes :—At the Askrigg meeting, Mr. Cosmo Johns
introduced the question of maps and records as a subject for this
Committee ; his paper appeared in the ‘‘ Naturalist ” (Sept. 1905).
Mr. Alfred Harker (‘‘ Naturalist,” Nov. 1905) contributed further
FORTY-FOURTH ANNUAL REPORT, FOR 1905. 19
to the subject. Other papers will probably appear soon. The
Committee has an excellent opportunity of drawing up a system
for the preparation of local maps for use in recording features of
natural history. The investigation of peat deposits has not yet
been systematically undertaken, and the attention of members is
again drawn to the plan of work (see ‘‘ Naturalist,” May 1904).
Recently great progress has been made in the investigation of peat-
mosses in Scotland (see Lewis, Trans. Roy. Soc. Edin., 1905), and
this is a model of what can be done by systematic methods. We
are. glad to be able to state that an investigation on peat is in
progress in the West Riding.
The following were elected for 1go6 :—
Chairman—Prof. P. F. Kendall, Leeds.
Convener—Dr. W. G. Smith, Leeds.

Soppitt Memorial.—lIn the absence of Mr. Woodhead, we
learn from Mr. S. L. Mosley of the Huddersfield Museum, that the
Soppitt Library has been extensively consulted by members of the
Union during the year. The portrait of Mr. Soppitt, formerly in
the rooms of the Bradford Naturalist’s Society, has recently been
received at Huddersfield, where the remainder of the Soppitt
Collection is housed.
The Committee consists of Messrs. C. Crossland, G. T.
Porritt, and W. West (Trustees), with Mr. T. W. Woodhead
as librarian.
British Association.—The Hon. Secretary was appointed
by the executive to attend the meeting of the delegates of the
Corresponding Societies of the British Association, which was
held at Burlington House on October 30th and 31st. Amongst
the matters discussed were: the Value of Excursions to Natural
History and Societies, the Law of Copyright, the Law of Treasure
Trove, &c., all of which were of value. The delegates were also
conducted round the Museum of the Royal College of Surgeons,
and were entertained in other ways.
Mr. Sheppard was appointed as delegate to represent the
Union at the forthcoming meeting at York.
20 YORKSHIRE NATURALISTS’ UNION.
The ‘‘ Naturalist ” has been in the hands of subscribers
punctually at the beginning of each month, and by them heartily
welcomed. That it maintains its stand as a long way the leading
Natural History Journal in the North of England goes without
saying ; and its permanent excellence alike as to matter, plates
and other illustrations seems to be now well assured. In Mr.
Woodhead’s absence from England, the work in connection with
the Journal has naturally fallen almost entirely on his colleague,
and the thanks of the Union are due to Mr. Sheppard for the
extra labour it must have entailed to keep up so high a
standard of merit.
The Presidency for 1906 has been offered to and accepted
by Mr. W. Eagle Clarke, F:R.5S,E., (FsL.S,,-cof the: Royat
Scottish Museum, Edinburgh.
The Financial Position of the Union.—The finances
for the year are not quite so satisfactory. The general account of
receipts and payments, including the ‘‘ Naturalist,’’ shows a loss
on the year of 431 13s. 11d. The expenses have been higher in
the items of transactions and publications. In addition to this,
531 is owing to the Secretary for clerical assistance, making a
total of £62 13s. 11d., of which sum £43 18s. 4d. belong’s to the
‘* Naturalist,” and represents the year’s loss on it. The loss on
the ‘‘ Naturalist,” which last year was £19 18s. 11d., has been
increased to £43 18s. 4d., but the subscriptions in arrears are
#10 more than last year, so that relatively the loss is 4.33 against |
£19 last year. The income from subscriptions is the same, and |
receipts from advertisements are £15 less. The arrangement
with Messrs. Brown & Sons will relieve the Uniori of further risk
of loss on the ‘‘ Naturalist,” which is now a very satisfactory
publication, and will no doubt become a good property. The
general Balance Sheet of assets and liabilities shows an adverse
balance against the Union of £21 18s. 5d. Subscriptions are
#71 in arrears compared with only £57 last year. There is
£60 8s. 5d. owing to the Hon. Treasurer in addition to the Hon.
Secretary’s claim for clerical assistance.
The Secretaryship.—tThe Hon. Secretary complains of the
amount of clerical work that is involved—much of which would be
unnecessary if members would send their subscriptions, &c.,
promptly. Your executive feel that it only requires the attention
of the members called to the matter in order to have the desired
effect.

YORKSHIRE NATURALISTS’ UNION.
FORTY-FIFTH ANNUAL REPORT, FOR 1906.
Presented at York, Dec. 15th, 1906.
The Executive Committee of the Yorkshire Naturalists’ Union
has pleasure in presenting the following report on the year’s work
of the Union, and of its Committees and Sections.
The Forty-fourth Annual Meeting was held at Brad-
ford on Saturday, January 27th, in the Cartwright Memorial Hall,
which had been kindly lent by the Bradford Corporation. Two
excursions preceded the meeting and were well attended. Mr.
J. E. Wilson conducted the Geologists, and Messrs. W. H. Parkin
and H. B. Booth looked after the Botanists, etc. ; and in Lister
Park Mr. E. Naylor described the Botanical Gardens.
At the General Meeting, Mr. G. W. Lamplugh, F.R.S.,
delivered his Presidential Address entitled ‘‘ A Necessity for the
_ Amateur Spirit in Scientific Work.” This was published z7 extenso
in the ‘‘ Naturalist” for March.
After the Address, a Conversazione was held in the rooms of
the Cartwright Hall, in some of which special Natural History
exhibits were prepared, and these were allowed to remain for some
days after the meeting for the benefit of the people of Bradford,
who much appreciated them. To the two Bradford Scientific
Societies, and to Messrs. S. Margerison and H. E. Wroot, the
Union is indebted for the great pains that were taken to ensure
the meeting being thoroughly successful.
The Ordinary Field Meeting’s during the year have been
five in number, detailed reports of which appeared in the
“* Naturalist” in due course. In addition there was the annual
Fungus Foray, which was held at Farnley Tyas, and a special
excursion to Goathland, which was arranged at the eleventh hour
in connection with the British Association Meeting at York. The
various excursions were held on the dates shown hereunder :—
1906. May 12th to r4th—Ingleton.
June 2nd to 4th (Whit Week-end)—Flamborough.
June 30th (Saturday )—Fewston.
July 12th (Thursday)—Askern.
August 4th to 6th (August Bank Holiday Week- end)—Goathland.
August 18th to zoth—Guisborough.
September 22nd to 26th (Fungus Foray)—Farnley Tyas.
2 YORKSHIRE NATURALISTS’ UNION.
Ingleton.—A very successful excursion was held at Ingletom
on May 12th, and some of the members stayed over the week-end.
The Geologists, under the leadership of their Chairman, Mr.
Cosmo Johns, paid special attention to the Carboniferous.
series exposed in the area, a detailed report upon which, by Mr.
Hawkesworth, appeared in the ‘‘ Naturalist” for July. The work
of the other sections at Ingleton was summarised in our journal
for June. Mr. Cosmo Johns presided at the meeting after tea, at
which a hearty welcome was given to Mr. W. Denison Roebuck,
the late Secretary, on his return to England after his travels
abroad. ‘There were 1g societies represented, and 13 new members.
were elected, whilst three new societies were affliated with the
Union.
Flamborough.—Whit Week-end, June 2nd to 4th, was
spent at Flamborough, and was certainly one of the most enjoy-
able and successful that the Union has held fora long time. Over
50 members stayed the week-end, and on the Bank Holiday the
number attending the various sections considerably exceeded 150.
During the three days the headland was thoroughly investigated,
in sections, full reports of the work appearing in the ‘‘ Naturalist”
for July and August. In all the sections important finds were
recorded. During the meeting the members were informed of the
fact that a pair of peregrine falcons was evidently nesting at last
successfully at Flamborough; and through the action of the mem-
bers of the Yorkshire Wild Birds’ Protection Committee present in
offering a reward to the ‘‘climmers”’ if the birds were successfully
reared, and by making this well known by means of the press, the
Union can safely take the credit of being the means of the young
peregrines getting safely away; and it is to be hoped that the
handsome bird may again regularly visit the headland. At this.
meeting the Union was also successful, by means of letters to the
press, in staying what might have resulted in the whole of the
headland being spoiled by hideous advertisements.“ At the
Saturday evening meeting, which was held at the Union’s head-
quarters at Bridlington, under the Chairmanship of Professor
Kendall, a paper by Mr. J. H. Howarth on the Boulder Committee
and its work was the cause of the matter being thoroughly
discussed. At the same meeting, the Honorary Secretary exhibited
and described some new ammonites, &c., found in the Speeton
clay by Mr. C. G. Danford. At the meeting held in the open air
on the Monday evening, at the close of the excursion, the Rev.
E. Maule Cole presided, and reports of the various sections were
presented. A photograph of some of the members present was
taken at this excursion and is reproduced in the ‘‘ Naturalist” for
August.t Twenty societies were represented, and seven new
members were elected.
* See ‘‘ Naturalist” for July, p. 202-3. + See ‘‘ Naturalist’ for July, p. 204-5.
FORTY-FIFTH ANNUAL REPORT, FOR 1906. 3
Fewston.—On Saturday, June 30th, about 60 members
drove in brakes from Harrogate to Fewston and Washburn Valley,
“and a day was spent under the guidance of Messrs. Fortune,
Margerison, and W. Storey. Mr. W. D. Roebuck occupied the
chair at the evening meeting, when the reports of the work were
presented, which have since been printed in the August
‘‘ Naturalist.” Fourteen societies were represented, and three
new members were elected.
Askern.—On Thursday, July 12th, a pleasant and profitable
meeting was held at Askern, and was attended by 80 members and
associates, Messrs. H. H. Corbett and H. Culpin being largely
responsible for the arrangements. The scientific results of the
excursion appeared in the October ‘‘ Naturalist.”” Mr. Roebuck
presided at the meeting after tea, at which the reports of the day’s
work were presented. Sixteen societies were represented, one
new member was elected, and the Doncaster Grammar School
Natural History Society was affiliated with the Union.
Goathland.—It was originally intended that the Yorkshire
Naturalists’ Union should arrange an excursion on August Bank
Holiday and invite the members of the British Association to
attend it; and a small sub-committee was appointed to carry this
out on similar lines to the Grassington excursion, which was held
in connection with the British Association Bradford meeting in
1900. Innumerable difficulties, however, had to be surpassed, and
eventually, at very short notice, a circular was sent round
arranging a meeting at Goathland in connection with the British
Association, and a very successful week-end was passed under
the leadership of Prof. P. F. Kendall; Mr. M. B. Cotsworth,
of York, being largely responsible for the arrangements. Whilst
many members of the Union were present at Goathland, it must be
admitted that the excursion was not planned on the lines originally
intended by the Executive.
Guisborough .—In continuation of the investigation of the
ironstone of Cleveland, which had been examined at Loftus by the
Union the year previously, a pleasant week-end (August 18th to
. 20th) was spent at Guisborough, where Mr. J. J. Burton had made
every possible arrangement for the benefit of the members. On
this occasion, remarkable to state, the Union had a unique ex-
perience. At Guisborough two of the landowners would not give
permission for the members to go over their estates, the excuses
given being very lame indeed, and consequently at Guisborough
the members had an experience which they had not previously had
at any of the 200 foregoing meetings which had been held in various
parts of the country. At the ordinary meeting on Saturday even-
ing Mr. C. Crossland presided, and reports on the work accomp-
lished on that date were then presented. Afterwards Mr. J. J.
4 YORKSHIRE . NATURALISTS’ UNION.
Burton presided at a meeting consisting largely of geologists,
when the following papers were read :—‘* The Origin of the Cleve-
land Ironstone,’”’ by Dr. H. C. Sorby, F.R.S., etc. (this was printed
in the *‘ Naturalist” for October) ; ‘‘ Notes on the History of the
Cleveland Ironstone,” by Mr. Cosmo Johns; and ‘‘The Con-
tinuous Glacial Period,” by Mr. M. B. Cotsworth. The papers
were well discussed, particularly the last named, the discussion
upon which was continued the following evening. One new
member was elected. Details of the work accomplished at Guis-
borough appeared in the November ‘“‘ Naturalist.”
Farnley Tyas.—The annual Fungus Foray was held at
Farnley Tyas, from September 22nd to 26th, and, as is usual on
such excursions, much good work was accomplished, and a very
profitable time spent. Mr. H. Wager, F.R.S., read a paper
entitled ‘‘ Recent Researches on Reproduction in Fungi,’ and six
new members were elected.
Generally speaking, the excursions during the past summer
have given evidence of exceptional vigour and enthusiasm on the
part of the members of the Union, and it can be safely said that
the various meetings have been as well attended and as scientifically
valuable as those in any previous year. The method adopted
during the past twelve months of suggesting definite problems to
be solved on the excursions has proved even more beneficial than
was anticipated ; the results of the work of the geological section
particularly being noteworthy. The practice of having papers
discussed in the evenings on the week-end excursions has been
followed with marked success. The scientific results of these
excursions, which have appeared in our journal the ‘‘ Naturalist,”
have given permanency to the work accomplished, as well as
added value to that publication.
Excursion. Programmes giving the details of the districts.
visited from a natural history point of view have been circulated
prior to each meeting as heretofore.
With the exceptions referred to at Guisborough, Permission
to visit Estates has been generously granted by the landed
gentry in the county.
Railway Facilities have also been kindly given by the
railway companies as in past years.
Excursions for 1907 .—The following places and dates are
decided for excursions for 1907 :-—
For York, N.E.—Robin Hood’s Bay (Whit Week-end, May
18th to 2oth).
a S.E.—South Cave (Saturday, June 22nd).

Annual Meeting for 190'7.—This will be held at Halifax
on the invitation of the Halifax Scientific Society.
Objects of the Union.—The Secretary will supply circulars
setting forth the objects and aims of the Union on applications.
Winter Lecture Scheme.—In accordance with the in-
structions of the Executive, a revised list of Lectures has been
prepared by the Secretary and sent round to the affiliated societies.
This appears to have been taken full advantage of by the societies,
judging by the syllabuses which have been received by the Secre-
tary of the Union. The following is the revised list of Lectures,
with the names of the Lecturers, provided under this scheme, and
the thanks of the Union are due to the gentlemen mentioned for
kindly allowing their names to be placed on the list, and giving

satisfactory increase in numbers. Forty-one Societies are now
affiliated, and during the year four new Societies have joined,
namely :—The Hebden Bridge Literary and Scientific Society ;
the East Riding Nature Study Association; the Shepley and
District Naturalists’ Society ; and the Doncaster Grammar School
Natural History Society. In addition, the following Societies
have increased their subscription to the full affiliation amount :—
The Malton Naturalists’ Society; the Halifax Scientific Society ;
and the Cleveland Naturalists’ Field; Club.* The total member-
ship of the Societies affiliated is now 3368.

General Committee.—The following were added to the
permanent general committee :—
H. Culpin, 36, Nether Hall Road, Doncaster.
G. Grace, B.Sc., 38, Windsor Road, Doncaster.
A. Whitaker, Savile House, Worsborough Bridge, Barnsley.
Miss M. A. Johnson, B.Sc., LL.A., Bradford.
Transactions.—During the year the members have received
the final part of Baker’s ‘‘ North Yorkshire,” which principally
consists of a list of the mosses and hepatics, prepared by Mr. M.
B. Slater. This was issued in April, and forms part 33 of our
Transactions, being the sixth instalment of “ North Yorkshire,”
the first of which appeared in 1888. Your Executive therefore has
pleasure in announcing that still another of the monographs which
the Union has undertaken has been completed. The part issued
to the members this year contains 288 pages. A number of copies
of the complete work of ‘‘ North Yorkshire” have been bound up,
and it is to be hoped that the sale of these will go towards paying
the cost of printing the final part.
“The Fungus Flora.”—tThe cost of the production of ‘‘ The
Fungus Flora” has been borne by the Mycological Committee and
a few friends. The committee were anxious that the flora should be
proceeded with; and seeing that the funds of the Union would not
allow of its being printed within any definite period, they decided
to raise a Guarantee Fund to ensure the Union against any serious
financial risk. At the Helmsley Fungus Foray in 1903, seven of the
members guaranteed 4,40 among them. This was supplemented
by other members of the Union unconnected with the Mycological
Committee, but willing to help the work forward. Ultimately the
fund reached 452, 7s. It was made up as follows:—W. N.
Cheesman, 410, later increased to 415; C. Crossland, 4,10; G.
Massee, £5; Alfred Clarke, 45; ° Thos. Gibbs, £5; J. Wms.
Sutcliffe, 41, 1s.; C. H. Broadhead, £1, 1s. Other members of
the Union—John Farrah, 45; U. Bairstow, R. H. Philip, A. G.
Robertshaw, J. J. Burton, and W. D. Roebuck, £1, 1s. each.
As the work proceeded, it was found that the matter it was
desirable to insert, exceeded expectations. The cost eventually
amounted to about 475. This has been reduced by sales to
#04, 5s. 10d., leaving a balance of about £12 to be made good.
Mr. Crossland proposed to the executive that he would undertake
this, in addition to his 4,10 guaranteed, and settle Browns’ claim
in full, on condition that the remaining stock be handed over to
him. This will free the Union from any further responsibility in
the matter ; 499 copies have been distributed free to the members
of the Union as Transactions, and sent out as Exchanges. Your
executive thanked Mr. Crossland for his liberal offer, and decided
to accept his terms.
1O YORKSHIRE NATURALISTS’ UNION.
‘‘The Birds of Yorkshire,” which has been taken over
by the Union’s publishers, Messrs. Brown, is being proceeded with
satisfactorily, the whole being in type. There has been some little
delay through a variety of causes in getting this work on the
market, but it has been felt that it would be more satisfactory to
have the work done thoroughly and well, than to rush it through
the press in a hasty manner. We are hoping shortly to announce
that the ‘‘ Birds of Yorkshire” is completed, and that still another
of our monographs is available.
Miscellaneous Volume, Part II.—Towards this we have
in hand MSS. of an appendix of the Flora of Dewsbury, a list of
fungi taken at Maltby, a list of Economic Fungi, by J. H. Holland,
the geological bibliographies for 1902 to 1906, the excursion
programmes for 1905 and 1906 (which are already printed off),
a list of members and the 1905 report (printed off), and this report.
This volume will probably be issued to the members for 1907.
SECTIONS.
The President and Secretary of the Union are ex-officio Members
of all the Sections and Committees.
Vertebrate Zoology Section.—Messrs. H. B. Booth and
R. Fortune report :—This section has had a fairly successful year,
and it is with pleasure we can report increasing attention and interest
paid by its members. The meetings have been better attended than
usual. At the Fewston and Flambro’ excursions the section was
particularly well represented. The papers and notes in ‘‘ The
Naturalist,” relating to Vertebrate Zoology, during the past year
have been up to the average of the last few years, but we should
like to see an improvement in this direction, not only in the
number of contributions but also in the number of contributors.
The interesting articles by Mr. A. Whitaker have attracted a good
deal of attention, and the thanks of all zoologists are due to him
for his active researches. It is interesting to note that Mr.
Whitaker has taken a number of Leisler’s Bats in the county.
There is plenty of room for observation upon this rather neglected
class of mammalia, and we hope other members in different parts
of the county will second Mr. Whitaker’s efforts. In Aves the
most notable record is that of the Lesser Grey Shrike (Z. mznor),
from Sleights, near Whitby. Although it was shot on September
20th, 1905, it was not identified and recorded until this year. The
successful nesting of several pairs of Peregrine Falcons is particu-
larly gratifying, and it is pleasing to record that a pair of Common
Buzzards has managed to rear its young in the county for the
first time for some years. The reported nesting of the Golden Eye
Duck in the Washburn Valley has remained unauthenticated after
FORTY-FIFTH ANNUAL REPORT, FOR 1900. II
investigation. Probably the Tufted Duck (which is increasing as
a breeding species in the county) has been mistaken for the Golden
Hye.
Much attention has been paid this year to the arrival, dispersal
and departure of the summer migrants. Their arrival, owing to
the cold and inclement spring, was most erratic, and many species
returned in considerably diminished numbers. This was especially
noticeable in the case of the Land Rail and the Black-cap Warbler.
The Willow Warblers were not much after their usual time, but
the other warblers were very late. Swallows and Martins came
in about the usual numbers, but left again, driven away by the
cold, &c., and many no doubt perished. Swifts were late, but were
more abundant than ever. Nightjars appear to have increased
somewhat. Many migrants delayed their departure beyond their
usual time, Swifts, Willow Wrens, Chiff Chaffs, and White-throats
having been seen in October, and House Martins and Swallows
were feeding young inthat month. It is interesting to note that a
very large and unusual migration of Fieldfares was noticed in the
West Riding during the last week of April and in early May.
We regret to report the shooting of a Hobby at Thirsk. A pair
of Quails was seen at Melmerby in September, one of which was
unfortunately shot in mistake for a Snipe. Kingfishers, it is a
pleasure to record, have increased considerably ; this is especially
gratifying, as a few years ago they were in danger of extermination.
In mammalia we may report a gratifying increase in Badgers,
and the practical disappearance of mange in Foxes.
With respect to Fishes, excepting the failure to establish the
Rainbow Trout, the introduction of which at first promised to be
successful, there is nothing of interest to report.

very few, even of the commonest species, have been reported as
abundant. The most noteworthy records are the following :—
Sphinx convolvult (the Convolvulus Hawk Moth), at Hoyland,
near Barnsley, early in September, and a few Cymatophora fluctuosa
were taken in their usual habitat in June.
Vanessa to (the Peacock Butterfly), flying in profusion at
Bardsey, August I5.
Vanessa cardut (the painted Lady Bntterfly), noticed at
Middlesbro’, Rombalds Moor and Cliffe, near Selby, Edlington,
and Askern.
A fine specimen of Cherocampa celerio (the silver-striped
Hawk Moth), was taken in a shop window at Wakefield, evidently
attracted by light. ‘‘Stainton’s Manual” reports this species as
having occurred at Wakefield.
A hermaphrodite Fzdonia atomarita, with one male and one
female antenna, two fore and one hind wing, light, like the female,
and the other dark, like the male, from Bradford.
The capture on the wing of a specimen of the variety varleyata
of Abraxas grossulartata at Huddersfield; the breeding of a brood
of variety varleyata of Abraxas grossulariata at Huddersfield, the
form breeding absolutely true; a black form of /zdonza atomaria on
Harden Clough Moors, Huddersfield, and the occurrence of Zeph-
rosta btundularia at Huddersfield this year, where it had not been
seen for probably forty years, and the capture of Selenza funaria at
the same place, where it is always a great rarity
The capture of a beautiful lilac coloured variety (female), of
Smerinthus popult (the Poplar Hawk Moth), at York, from which
a large batch of eggs was obtained, and these have been success-
fully reared into the pupal stage.
Sphinx ligustri (the privet Hawk Moth), has been taken both |
in the larval and imago stages at Hatfield, and Acronycta alni at
Edlington, and several specimens of Cerigo cytherea have been
taken at Edenthorpe.
Twenty-six pupe of Amphidasis betularia (the Peppered
Moth), obtained at Edlington last winter, produced this year
seventeen specimens of the variety doubledayaria, whilst’ nine —
specimens only were typical de¢ularza.
A male Orgyia gonostigma was captured in Wheatley Wood,
near Doncaster, early in September, and Calligenta muniata
occurred at Sandall Beat, Doncaster.
Black forms of Odontopera bidentata are recorded from Leeds
and Barnsley for the first time.
Mention should also be made of Mr. George T. Porritt’s

members of the British Association, Section D, Zoology, in York.
This excellent paper, by such a well-known authority on Melanism,
should be in the hands of all Yorkshire Lepidopterists.
A full and detailed list of interesting notes (with names of the
contributors) on the season 1906, compiled from records sent by
numerous Yorkshire Lepidopterists to the Honorary Secretaries,
will probably appear in an early number of the ‘‘ Naturalist.”
It is also suggested that the members of the Entomological
Section hold an Annual Meeting at places to be determined on,
prior to the Annual Meeting of the Y.N.U., and that an exhibition
and examination of specimens be held at this meeting, also that
one or more papers on entomological subjects be read.
The following were elected for 1907 :—
President—W. Hewett, York.

Conchological Section.—Mr. J. E. Crowther reports :—
This section has been officially represented at all the ordinary
meetings of the Union during the summer, and although not many
new records have been made, much good work has been done
where the conditions were favourable. Reports of all the meetings
have appeared in the ‘‘ Naturalist.”
At Ingleton Mr. Roebuck reported that thirty-one species had
been noted (made up of twenty-nine land and two fresh water
species), though their number is by no means representative of the
district, which is very rich in land shells. The only finds worthy
of mention were var. vzolacae of Agriolimax agrestis, and the
abundance and very large size of Arion circumscriptus.
The Flambro’ meeting was well attended, and though the
weather was rather dry a fairly good list was made, in aJl twenty-
eight species and five varieties, the most noteworthy being Mzlax
gagates at Bempton, and var. albolateralis of Arton ater in some
numbers near the same place.
Owing to the district being geologically unfavourable, Messrs.
Taylor and Roebuck found the neighbourhood of Fewston and
Swinsty Reservoir rather barren, only seven species of molluscs
being noted, though one of these, Vitria alliaria, had not been
previously recorded for the district.
14 YORKSHIRE NATURALISTS’ UNION.
At the Askern meeting Mr. J. W. Taylor reported that besides
looking for land and fresh water shells, several mole-hills in
the low-lying fields were examined for sub-fossil shells, which are
very plentiful in some places. In all thirty-three species were
found, and, as might be expected from the district, the greater
part of these were aquatics. Of this number eight were found in
the sub-fossil state only, seventeen in the living state only, and
eight were found in both. | The best record of the day, a fine var.
acuminata of Valvata piscinalts, was taken in Campsall Park.
At Guisborough, probably the richest district visited during
the summer, Mr. Roebuck reported twenty-four species, eight of |
these being slugs and sixteen terrestrial shell-bearers, no water
shells being seen or even looked for. During this excursion
Kildale was visited for the purpose of verifying the record of
Acanthinula lamellata at that place. This was soon done, several
being found, all of which were white or whitish, a form not before
known to exist, and will probably be described as a new variety
by Mr. Taylor in his Monograph.
The section is carefully considering the steps to be taken for
the speedy completion of the list of Yorkshire Mollusca, already
partly printed, and the active co-operation of the Leeds Concho-
logical Club will be given in doing this, under the guidance of
Mr. Taylor.
The following were elected for 1907 :—
President—J. E. Crowther, Elland.
Secretary—W. Denison Roebuck, F.L.S., Leeds.
Representative on Executive—J. E. Crowther.
Representative on Committee of Suggestions—J. W. Taylor.
Botanical Section.—Mr. J. F. Robinson writes :—It can
again be reported of the Phanerogamic Section that there is a
very real and continued interest in plant study (floristic) in the
field, and this is borne out by the full and detailed reports that
have appeared in the ‘‘ Naturalist” after each Y.N.U. excursion.
Further, in the same journal, during the year now nearing itsclose, —
there have appeared important notices of discoveries made by the —
private enterprise of members of the Union or of the affiliated —
societies. .
In the Spring, near Ingleton, a very comprehensive list of
plants was made out by Dr. G. W. Smith whilst pursuing the —
important work of the Botanic Survey of Yorkshire, and Mr. C. A. —
Cheetham added to the above. Very excellent results, too, were —
obtained at the Whitsuntide excursions to Flamborough, and
from copious notes made on the spot by the many botanists —
who attended, one had a most complete knowledge of the spring
flora of the great chalk headland. One species had not —
previously been noted there, the little grass, Azra precox. Askern

Bog and vicinity in mid-autumn seemed rich in flowering species,
and gave a very good account of its plant resources.
Of isolated records, referred to above, it may be mentioned
that Mr. P. Fox Lee, in the pages of the ‘‘ Naturalist” early in
the year, notified the first record for the North Riding of the dwarf
Centaury, Zrythrea pulchella. Then the revival of the sight of the
beautiful slipper-orchis Cypripedium Calceolus, which has been.
observed in no fewer than three Yorkshire stations during the past
summer, is one of those marvels of plant phenomena which should
add zest to further search in many directions besides the orchis one.
We thought the ‘‘slipper” had almost vanished from our cal-
careous xerophilous tracts. We can still pray—/onge C. Calceolus
fioreat. Quite recently a new record for the East Riding has been
- made by Mr. Herbert Cox, of Willerby, who for the last two years
: has known of the existence of the rare dwarf thistle Cnzcus (or
Carduus) acaulis, near Beverley. Indications these, that

Geological Section.—There has been a large attendance
of the members of this section at all the meetings, and much
useful work has been done. At Ingleton and Flambro’ the
geologists constituted a majority of all those present. Seldom
have more examples of important geological phenomena been seen
in a few hours than in the former district, and the opportunity
was taken of inaugurating an important piece of work, namely, the
zoning of the lower Carboniferous rocks of Yorkshire. The President
of the section, Mr. Cosmo Johns, has been foremost in this,
having, with some assistance from other members, devoted con-
siderable time to the examination of sections and collection of
specimens in North-west Yorkshire. Some of the results have
already been published. The Flambro’ meeting afforded a splendid
opportunity of examining the Neocomian rocks under favourable
conditions, and renewing acquaintance with the fine sections of
_ chalk exposed in the cliffs of the headland and adjacent. At the
Washburn Valley meeting attention was devoted to the ‘‘ Shell
Bed” in the Millstone Grit series. At Askern, the Permian rocks.
were inspected, and the recent deposits of the district gave rise to
much discussion as to their origin. At Guisborough special
attention was paid to the Cleveland ironstone, and on one of the
evenings the President of the section read a paper on ‘“‘ Jurassic
Ironstone Deposits of Great Britain.” Mr. M. B. Cotsworth also
read a paper on ‘‘The Continuous Glacial Period”; both giving

rise to animated discussions. It would be superfluous to give
more details here, as full reports of the work done at each meeting
have appeared in the ‘‘ Naturalist.” The members of the section
desire to place on record their appreciation of the services rendered
from time to time by the Rev. Lower Carter, M.A., who has
recently left Yorkshire.

follows :—During 1906 much work has been done by the various
members. The excursions have been attended by one or more
representative members, and most of the species observed
recorded in the ‘‘ Naturalist.””. Amongst these, mention might be
made of Anctstronycha abdominalis, F., taken at Fewston and
handed to Mr. W. D. Roebuck. In addition, several interesting
species have been discovered, viz.:—By Mr. M. L. Thompson,
Donacia affints, Kunz., Aphthona lutescens, Gyll., Ceuthorrhyn-

as satisfactory, although beetles have been less plentiful than in
former years.

Yorkshire Bryological Committee.—Mr. J. J. Marshall
reports :—I have little to report in my department this year. Only
one specimen of moss has been submitted to me from the Hull
members. It is a good find, but instead of being marked very rare
as it was 100 years ago, I now hold the opinion it is very common
in our chalk pits or quarries, but so minute as to escape observation.
The plant is Sedigerza calcarea (Dicks.) Br. Sch., from Ferriby or
Hessle, vzde J. F. Robinson. I also discovered it in quarry near
Skidby or Cottingham. Another interesting moss was growing
there, it is exceedingly common yet I have never seen it elsewhere
bearing the fruit or capsule. Its name is Aylocomium triqguetrum
(Linn.).

London; L. J. Cocks, London; C. Crossland, Halifax ;
W. West, Bradford; and C. A. Cheetham, Armley.
Mycological Committee.—Mr. C. Crossland writes:—This
year more interest has been taken in mycology by the general
body of members attending the several excursions than heretofore.
Specially good collections were made at the Flambro’ and Guisboro’
meetings. The result has been several additions to the records
of Yorkshire Fungi, and one new to Great Britain. These have
been, or will in due course be published in the ‘‘ Naturalist.”
Though the weather had been somewhat against a rich har-
vest of fungi at the time of the annual foray (Sep. 22-26), many
interesting species were met with; among them Leztinus suffru- —
fescens Fr., new to this country, it was brought by the Milnes ©
Bridge Society from their district. |
1906 has been a somewhat peculiar year for fungi. In Jan- ©
uary Agarics appeared in plenty, encouraged by the unusually wet, —
mild winter (1905-6), up to the end of that month. Mushrooms —
were reported from meadows in Cleveland and other places. —
Blewits were plentiful in the Halifax and Hebden Bridge districts ;
and many other common agarics appeared out of due season. The
comparatively dry summer held the weight of fungi back two or —
three weeks behind their usual time of appearance. The mid-_
October rains brought out fungi of all kinds in abundance. |
For the ensuing year the Committee will be composed of the |
following members :—

The Yorkshire Fossil Flora and Fauna Committee.
Mr. R. Kidston, F.R.S., of Stirling, writes that so far as the
fossil flora of Yorkshire is concerned the work of the committee is
still being carried on, though he has not received much assistance
since the last meeting. During the year some light has been
thrown on the distribution of the Yorkshire Carboniferous flora,
and a report for our Transactions is well in hand.
Faunal Report.—At the meeting of the General Committee
of the Union in Bradford last year, permission was given to the
Geological Section to extend the scope of the Fossil Flora Com-
mittee, by including the Fauna of the Carboniferous rocks, and
also to add new members to the committee. This was done at a
subsequent meeting of the section, and several well-known workers
in Carboniferous Geology were induced to join the Union and the
committee. As a result, a considerable amount of work, most
of it of pressing importance, has been accomplished, and if the
Committee continues to receive the same measure of support that
has been the case this year, it should be possible to record during
the next few years useful contributions to the zonal classification
of the Yorkshire Carboniferous rocks. Arrangements have been
made by members of the Committee and their friends to carefully
follow the sinking of several colliery shafts, with a view of de-
termining the relative position of any marine fossiliferous bands
in the coal-measures. The importance of this work cannot be
over-estimated. The observations, will, of’ necessity, occupy
much time, and rapid results should not be looked for. Other
members of the committee have been engaged in working out the
faunal succession in the Lower Carboniferous rocks, and a certain
amount of progress has been made. It is hoped that next year
work will be started on the Millstone Grit series, by members
favourably located for work on this important series of rocks.
Such a favourable report would not have been possible had it
not been for the enthusiastic manner in which so many Yorkshire
members of the committee have entered into the work, and the
value of what has been accomplished has been enhanced by the
gratifying assistance that has been rendered to the workers by Dr.
Wheelton Hind, Mr. Walcot Gibson, and Dr. Arthur Vaughan.

Wild Birds’ and Eggs’ Protection Committee.—Mr.
R. Fortune writes :—Your Committee have to report an active
and fairly successful year. They have endeavoured to bring the
three County Councils into line, so as to simplify the Wild Birds’
Protection Orders for the County, but so far without much success.
Through the efforts of the Committee, ample protection was
afforded to the pair of Peregrine Falcons that put in an appearance
on Bempton Cliffs this season, and it is pleasant to report that
three young were successfully reared and that both the old and the
young birds got safely away. This is the more significant when it
is borne in mind that it is at least 35 years since any young Falcons
were reared on that part of the coast, and it is several years since
any have attempted to nest there.
A reward for their protection was offered and paid to the
climbers ‘by the officers of the Committee. The climbers loyally
carried out the agreement made, despite several bribes offered by
individuals not resident in the County, for the young birds.
Although the reward offered was subscribed by the officers of the
committee, the general public evinced a good deal of interest in
the matter, and one gentleman, W. H. St. Quintin, Esq., J.P.,
voluntarily forwarded £1 towards the Protection Fund.
“Another pair of Peregrines attempted to nest on the slopes of
Ingleborough, but unsuccessfully, owing to some local individuals
endeavouring to shoot the Falcons. With regard to this episode,
it is gratifying to note the increase of public opinion in the matter
of the protection of wild nature; this caused such a‘hue and cry to
be raised, led by the Y.N.U. Committee, ably supported by: the
Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, that the police admitted
that they were OBLIGED to institute proceedings against the: culprit! !
The prosecution did not result’ in ‘a’ conviction, but as the magi-
strates observed, attention had been drawn to the matter,:and the
police acknowledged to the great interest taken by the public, that
nothing but good could come from the action of — committee in
spurring on the police. ;
2 THAD, dé
22 YORKSHIRE NATURALISTS’ UNION.
Your committee would like to employ a paid watcher at Spurn
Point for a few months during the breeding season. They appeal
to all members and associates of the Y.N.U., and to all bird lovers
in the county for small. subscriptions in order to enable them to
carry out this necessary work and also that they may have a small
sum in reserve for emergency cases.
We have heard with deep regret of the continual persecution
of the Airedale Black-headed Gulls, at their nesting place on the
moors surrounding the Fly Flatts Reservoir, belonging to the
Halifax Corporation. This persecution is the result of unfounded
and mistaken charges made by the local gamekeepers that the
gulls destroyed the eggs and young of the Red Grouse. The
charge is ridiculous. Every nest has been destroyed this season,
and many of the birds shot.
It is to be hoped that the West Riding County Council will
protect these birds without delay, as they are not only a pleasant
feature of the landscape, but are extremely valuable as scavengers
on the sewage beds and along the river; they also render valuable
assistance to the farmers on the land.
Your Committee would further draw the attention of the
County Councils and the police authorities to the fact that Plovers’
eges are offered for sale by some game dealers in our cities several
weeks after the time has expired for taking them, and at a much
longer time than they could be sold as fresh eggs if they had been
legally taken. We would suggest that the County Councils in
their Wild Birds’ Protection Orders state that ‘‘ No Plovers’ eggs
shall be taken nor exposed for sale” say after the 15th day of
April.
Since the above was written, Mr. Fortune has attended a
meeting of the West Riding County Council, at their request.
The matter of a more comprehensive Bird Protection Order
was thoroughly gone into, the result being that one will be
applied for at once, a much more stringent one than that
originally selected by the Union, but of that we must not com-
plain. Mr. Fortune was very gratified to find the feeling for
increased protection so strong among the members of the County
Council.
The following were elected for 1907 :—
Chairman—W. H. St. Quintin, J. P., Rillington, Vouk,
Conveners—R. Fortune, Harrogate, and T. H. Nelson,
Redcar.
Representative on Executive—H. B. Booth, Shipley. -

Yorkshire Botanical Survey Committee.— Steady
progress is being made with the work which is the special object
of this Committee. Ingleton was selected as the special excursion
for organised Botanical Survey ; the results were satisfactory, and
a report was published in the ‘‘ Naturalist” for June. Useful
reports have also been published by members of the Committee in
connection with the Flamborough and Askern excursions. Mem-
bers took part in the preparation of the botanical part of the
handbook for the York meeting of the British Association. The
very short notice given of the week-end excursion in connection
with this meeting completely disorganised a projected Botanical
Survey excursion in this interesting area. The Survey begun at
the Scarborough Y.N.U. meeting in 1904 of the area from the
Vaie of Pickering to the Tees, including the Clevelands and the
Hambletons, has been almost completed by members of the
Y.N.U., and will be issued during 1907. It is also gratifying to
be able to report that workers in several parts of the county are
now engaged in investigations which promise to contribute
materially to knowledge on the relation of plants to environment.
The following were elected for 1907 :—
Chairman—T. W. Woodhead, Huddersfield.
Convener and Representative on Executive and Committee
of Suggestions—Dr. W. G. Smith, Leeds.
Other Members—J. F. Robinson, Hull; C. Waterfall, Hull ;

Wilkinson, York’; W. Jackson, Goole.
Committee of Suggestions for Research.—The
suggestion for a standard method of dividing Ordnance Maps
used in recording data of Natural History has been further
discussed ; there is now no reason why a working plan should not
be adopted, but a meeting will be necessary for arrangement of
details.
24 YOKKSHIRE NATURALISTS’ UNION.
Members are again reminded that co-operation is still necessary
for the carrying out of the proposals made in the “ Naturalist,”
May, 1904. An important suggestion has been received from
Mr. Hugh Richardson (York), on the’ possible relation of isolated
species of Lepidoptera to present or past distribution of plants.
The whole problem of the distribution of insects’ and their food
plants is here involved, and offers a wide field for observations.
The subject of Meteorological Observations by Local Scientific
Societies, referred to at the Conference of Delegates at the British
Association, is one which would be particularly valuable i in relation
to the distribution of plants and animals.
The following were elected for 1907 :—

Hymenoptera, Diptera, and Hemiptera Committee.
—A new Committee of Research is formed, designated ‘as above,
for the purpose of framing new lists of Yorkshire Hymenoptera,
Diptera, and Hemiptera for future publication in the Transactions,
and of stimulating the study of insects of those orders in the
county. The Committee were elected as follows :—
Chairman—G. T. Porritt, Huddersfield.
Convener—W. Denison Roebuck, Leeds.
Referees—Percy H. Grimshaw, for Diptera; Edward Saunders,

Soppitt Memorial.—Dr. T. W. Woodhead writes :—This
a ates has been consulted by 10 members during the year, and
37 books and papers have been issued. I wish to thank Mr. S.'L.
Mosley, for acting in my stead during my absence from the
country. Further progress has been made in permanently mount-
ing the Fungi in this collection, and Mr. C. Crossland, FLL. Ss.

has added a large number mosses, all collected by the eee
Mr. Soppitt.
The Committee consists of Messrs. C. Crossland, G. T.

‘Woodhead as- Librarian. : i
British Association.—During the year the meeting of the
British Association -was‘held at our county capital, the birth-place
of ‘the’ Association three-quarters of a century ago, and certainly
it Can be said that no efforts had been spared’ by the citizens: of
York to’ make the meeting a’success, from a social point of view.
Unfortunately, however, the numbers ‘attending the meeting were
by no means satisfactory, and did not reach the number: which
attended at York twenty-five years ago. This was probably
partly due to the fact that the meeting was held in the first week
in See instead of in September.
The scientific work accomplished at the York meeting, so far
as it affects Yorkshire, was summarised in the September number
of our journal, the ‘‘ Naturalist,” the Secretary of the Union being
successful in obtaining for publication most of the papers bearing
upon Yorkshire, either in full or in abstract form. It must be
gratifying to the Union to find that the only natural history paper
read at the York meeting, which was voted to be printed 77 extenso
in ‘the British Association Report, was that presented by our Ea tes fa
President, Mr. Porritt, on the subject of melanism.
CONFERENCE OF DELEGATES AT THE BRITISH ASSOCIATION. —
As the appointed delegate from the Yorkshire Naturalists’
Union; the Hon. Secretary, Mr. Sheppard, attended both meetings
of''the ‘Conference of Delegates from corresponding ‘societies
attending’ the British Association meeting. At the first, Dr.
Hi‘ R: Mill addressed the members on’ ‘‘ Meteorological Observa-
tiors ‘by Local ‘Scientific Societies,” and complained’ of the
inadequacy of the records from the East’ and North Ridings of
Yorkshire. The second meeting was devoted to’a discussion on
‘oP he Desirability of Promoting County Photographic: Surveys,”
whith “was: ‘opened in’ a paper prepared by Mr.’ W. Jerome
Hatrison.-* It was’ agreed. to recommend that a‘ committee be
appointed next’ year to promote photographic survey work in the
British Islands, the Secretary of the Yorkshire Naturalists’ Union
being one of the six suggested members of ‘such committee.
ae “Mr. Tt Sheppard was appointed delegate from the Union for
the 1907 meeting at Leicester.
The “ Naturalist.”—From the Union’s point of view the
arrangement made a year ago’ with Messrs. A.’ Brown & ‘Sons,
the Union’s publishers, ‘i in reference to the “Naturalist, en has
26 YORKSHIRE NATURALISTS’ UNION.
proved most satisfactory. Not only has the firm kept to its
arrangement and produced a magazine equal in every way, as
regards the number of pages and illustrations, to the 1905 volume,
but they have even exceeded their undertaking in a most generous
manner. This year the volume contains 30 plates, and the number
of pages and illustrations is also far in excess of last year’s
number. In March, July, and September additional sheets were
included in the magazine without additional expense to the
members of the Union or to the subscribers. In connection with
the special British Association number, issued in September, the
firm printed 32 pages extra in the magazine, and reproduced
portraits of some of the Presidents. This number can be safely
said to contain the scientific results of the British Association so
far as they affect the northern counties.
From a scientific point of view, the ‘‘ Naturalist” for 1906
can be safely said to have fully maintained, if not exceeded, the
value it has had in recent years. Whilst most of the former
contributors still favour the journal with notes, we welcome in our
1906 volume the appearance of several contributions by other well
known authorities. Palzontology has been particularly well repre-
sented, and largely in connection with the work upon the Yorkshire
Carboniferous rocks, papers have appeared from the pens of
Messrs. Cash, Cosmo Johns, Wheelton Hind, Walcot Gibson,
Weiss, and Miss Stopes. The rocks of the Cretaceous system
have also received unusual attention, and upon these, notes have
appeared by Messrs. C. Davies Sherborn, W. Hill, J. W. Stather,
H. C. Drake, C. G. Danford, A. Burnet, and G. C. Crick. Impor-
tant notes referring to other systems, and to Glacial Geology, have
also been published. The botanists have been well catered for,
and in the forthcoming volume will be treated even more gene-
rously. The zoologists have been favoured by Mr. A. Whitaker’s
most valuable notes on the habits of bats; and more ornitho-
logical notes than usual have appeared, though with this branch,
as with entomology, an improvement might be made. By means
of the ‘‘ Notes and Comments,” and ‘‘ Northern News,” columns,
the readers of the ‘‘ Naturalist”? have been kept well and promptly
informed of papers and notes likely to interest them, which have
appeared elsewhere ; these items, to some extent, taking the place
of the bibliographies formerly appearing in the journal. The
excursions of the Yorkshire Naturalists’ Union have been fully
reported in the journal, and in many cases the reports were
illustrated. A new feature—and a useful one—is the series of
‘*Prominent Yorkshire Workers” which has been started, the
notice of Dr. H. C. Sorby (with portrait and list of monographs
and papers) being admirable. Dr. Woodhead’s absence abroad,
for most of the year, has thrown the work in connection with the
1906 volume very largely upon the shoulders of Mr. Sheppard.
‘“FORTY-FIFTH ANNUAL REPORT, FOR 1906. 27
The Victoria County History.—During the year several
of the members of the Union have been engaged on the preparation
‘of articles and lists, for publication in the forthcoming ‘ Victoria
History of the County of York.’ The general supervision of the
lists of insects has. been in the able and experienced hands of Mr.
G. T. Porritt, who has himself supplied the lists of Orthoptera,
Neuroptera, and Lepidoptera, while the Coleoptera have been
done by Messrs. E. G. Bayford and M. L. Thompson, the
Hymenoptera by Mr. W. Denison Roebuck, and the Diptera
by Mr. Percy H. Grimshaw. Prof. Kendall is responsible for
the chapter dealing with the Geology, &c. The Union is to be
congratulated upon the part its members have played in connec-
tion with this excellent undertaking.
The Presidency for 1907 has been offered and accepted
by Mr. C. Crossland, F.L.S., of Halifax.
The Union desires to express its indebtedness to Mr W.
Eagle Clarke for his services during 1906. |
The Financial Position of the Union.—This shows
some improvement during the year. The General Account of
Receipts and Payments, including the ‘‘ Naturalist,” shows a
credit balance of 41 9s. 7d., as compared with a deficiency last
year of £31 13s. 11d. This is after paying this year the 431
owing to the Hon. Secretary for clerical assistance in 1905, as
well as £28 for the year 1906.
The ‘‘ Naturalist ” shows, for the first time, receipts in excess
of payments, and has still further strengthened its position.
The General Balance Sheet shows a deficiency of Assets to
Liabilities of 414 3s. 7d., as compared with £21 18s. 5d. last
year.
The sum of £58 16s. 7d. was owing to the Hon. Treasurer
Secretaryship.—To assist the Hon. Secretary as much
as possible, will all those members who can, kindly give instruc-
tions to their bankers to pay their subscriptions in to the Union’s
bankers direct. Forms for this purpose will be gladly sent on
application being made to the Secretary of the Union.

YORKSHIRE NATURALISTS’ UNION.
FORTY-SIXTH ANNUAL REPORT, FOR 1907.
Presented at Halifax, Dec. 14th, 1907.
The Executive Committee of the Yorkshire Naturalists’ Union
has pleasure in presenting the following report of the work of the
Union during the past year.
The Forty-fifth Annual Meeting was held at York
on Saturday, December 15th, 1906, the occasion being of peculiar
interest from the fact that it was the 20oth meeting of the Union.
In the morning the members were conducted round the premises
of the British Botanical Association at Acomb, under the direction
of Dr. Burtt.
At the General Meeting, Mr. W. Eagle Clarke delivered an
admirable address entitled ‘‘ Bird Life in the Antarctic,’ which
was illustrated by a beautiful series of lantern slides. Mr. Eagle
Clarke, having had the ornithological collections acquired by the
Scottish and Antarctic expeditions submitted to him for examina-
tion and description, was able to give much interesting information
at first hand.
In view of some recent comments in the press, the members
of the Union unanimously passed a resolution congratulating the
Hull Corporation on the method of arrangement, etc., of the
specimens in the Hull Museum.
After the Address, a Conversazione was held in the Museum
at York, by the kind permission of the York Philosophical Society.
The best thanks of the Union are due to the York and District
Field Naturalists’ Society for their local arrangements and enter-
tainment, and to the York Philosophical Society for allowing the
members to make use of the Lecture Theatre and the Museum
The usual Six Field Meeting’s have been held during the
summer, and in most cases have been very fully reported upon
in the pages of ‘‘The Naturalist.” These reports have been
further increased in value by the illustrations which the publishers
have given. The excursions were held as follows :—
1907. May 18th to 20th (Whit Week-end)—Robin Hood's Bay.
June 22nd (Saturday)—South Cave.
July 11th (Thursday)—Thorne Waste.
August 3rd to 5th (August Bank Holiday Week-end)—Arncliffe.
September 7th (Saturday)—Horton-in-Ribblesdale.
September 21st to 26th (Fungus Foray)—Grassington, for Grass
Woods and Bolton Woods.
2 YORKSHIRE NATURALISTS’ UNION.
Robin Hood’s Bay.—In the May ‘ Naturalist,” Professor
Kendall kindly contributed some geological notes on the Robin
Hood’s Bay district, in which he set forth the problems to be
investigated on the occasion of the excursion, which was held
from May 18th to 20th. From the report of this, which appeared
in ‘‘The Naturalist” for June and July, it would seem that an
exceptionally profitable time was spent. The geologists were
particularly to the fore, but advantage was taken of this coast
excursion for investigating the marine zoology, and under this
head the Rev. F. H. Woods presented a useful list of the
specimens noticed. The President, Mr. C. Crossland, presided at
crowded meetings on two evenings, when Professor Kendall gave
an address on ‘‘Some Geological Problems of the District,” paying
special attention to the persistent faultings; Mr. F. Elgee read a
paper on ‘‘Glacial Survivors,’ which has since been printed in
‘‘The Naturalist’; the Hon. Secretary, Mr. Sheppard. described
a recent British Chariot-Burial which he had excavated in the
district; and Mr. J. J. Burton and Mr. Riley Fortune read in-
teresting contributions on the Natural History, etc., of Fylingdales,
which had been kindly prepared by Mr. J. W. Barry, some of
which have since been printed in ‘‘ The Naturalist.’’ Fourteen
new members were elected, and two societies were affiliated with
the Union.
South Cave.—After a lapse of thirteen years, the Union ~
visited South Cave and spent a pleasant day in investigating the |
geological sections exposed in the cuttings of the Hull and Barns-
ley Railway Company, and the dales adjoining. The members
of the Hull Scientific and Field Naturalists’ Club and the Hull
Geological Society acted as leaders. Reports of the various
sections were printed in the August ‘ Naturalist.” Two new
members were elected.
On Thursday, July 11th, Thorne Waste was visited, and
the members had an opportunity of examining one of the few —
pieces of wild moorland in that part of the county. A full
report of the work accomplished is given in the September
‘*Naturalist.”” Two new members were elected.
A pleasant week-end was spent at Arncliffe, where the
members monopolised almost every available bed in the village. —
The various sections worked hard for three or four days, and
a lengthy account of the work accomplished is given in the —
October ‘‘ Naturalist,” which was enlarged for the purpose. presence of these shells,
and it is highly probable that very good results might be obtained
from an examination after a favourable tide of the sand reaches
in the north of Yorkshire.
Since writing the above I have examined some drift from
Scarborough. I found 53 or more different species, among whick
were two specimens, adult and young, of Rissoa proxima, severa
of Tornatina mammullata, and one or more of the rarer species
Philina.
FORTY-SEVENTH ANNUAL REPORT, FOR 1908. 25
The following were elected for 1909 :—
Chairman— Prof. Garstang, Leeds.
Convener—Kev. B: A: Woods, B.D., Bainton, Driffield.
Other Members—Rev. W. C. Hey, M.A., West Ayton; Geo.
Massee, Kew; T. H. Nelson, Redcar; S. Lister
Petty, Ulverston ; J. Fraser Robinson, Hull; F. W.
Fierke, Hull; W. Denison Roebuck, Leeds ; Arnold
T. Watson, Sheffield; J. D. Butterell, Wansford ;
E, Howarth, Sheffield ; and W. Harrison Hutton,
Leeds.
BOTANICAL SECTION.
PHANEROGAMS.—The Secretaries are unable to make a very
elaborate report for the past year, although the work (both
“floristic ’? and geographical) continues to make progress. Not
unimportant discoveries have even been made by members
interested in the flowering plants. For example, the Bearberry
(Arctostaphylos Uva-urst Spreng) is found to be abundant in a
south-west Yorkshire Station (fide C. E. Moss, Cambridge), and
Hypericum montanum at Hessle (leg. C. Waterfall), is new to
the East Riding, whilst Juncus acutus, a saltmarsh rush, has
been discovered at East Coatham, by P. F. Lee, and 1s, according
to Dr. F. A. Lees, a “significant,extension’”’ in the East Coast
range of this unusual rush.
The literary side, too, has had much attention given to it,
as witness the increasing number of most interesting articles on
various aspects of the plant question in our increasingly interesting
organ—“‘ The Naturalist.” We do not yet, even in well-worked
Yorkshire, know absolutely all that is to be learned of many
departments of botanical study, and long may it be before the
| members and associates of the Union get it into their heads that
they have anything like approached a stage of finality in this
@ respect.
The following were elected for 1909 :—
President—T. W. Woodhead, Ph.D.
secretaries—H. H. Corbett, 9 Priory Place, Doncaster; iL
Fraser Robinson, 22 Harley Street, Hull.
Representative on Executive —E Snelgrove, Sheffild.
Representative on Committee of Suggestions—S. Margerison.
Botanical Survey Committee.—The Convener (Dr. W. G.
| Smith) reports—The excursions, especially those at Leckby Carr
| and Osmotherley, have yielded good results. The latter week-
|} end was attended by several members of the Committee, ‘and
26 YORKSHIRE NATURALISTS’ UNION.
the routes were arranged so that as much as possible of the
escarpments and the moorland plateau, including Black Hamble-
ton, could be traversed. The results were most satisfactory, as
the district is especially suited for showing within a short distance,
the chief features of the vegetation of north-east Yorkshire.
During the year the Convener and Mr. Elgee have carried the
map survey of north-east Yorkshire almost to a finish, although
some time must elapse before it can be published. A short
account with a vegetation map on a small scale is included by
Mr. Cotsworth, York, in a publication on the district.
Dr. Woodhead reports that the survey he is carrying out in
Upper Wharfedale, has made good progress during the year.
A new map and memoir by Dr. C. E. Moss (Cambridge), on
the vegetation of the Pennines of south-west Yorkshire and north
Derbyshire is in preparation, and will be issued by the Board of
Agriculture.
“The Naturalist ’’ for 1g08 contains two papers relating to
Botanical Surveys :—Dr. Woodhead gave an account of “ Plant
Geography and Ecology in Switzerland’ (May and June 1908),
which will enable botanists to see how important a part these
branches play in the Botany of Switzerland. Mr. Mackinder’s
address (March 1908), contains references which indicate the
important place which geographers give to botanical surveys.
Another interesting piece of work is that of Mr S. Margerison, on
“The Vegetation of some Disused Quarries,’”’ now appearing in
the Bradford Scientific Journal.
In conclusion, I would like to add a personal note, expressing
my regret that my removal to Edinburgh will mean a less active —
service to this Committee. It was in many ways a charge handed
over to my care by the Y.N.U., and I may candidly admit that
it has served as an important aid to my own work. Yet I trust
that the botanists of the Union, especially the younger race, will
feel that the botanical surveyor’s point of view has added new
interest to out-door observations, and to systematic botany,
which is the foundation of all open-air botany.
The following were elected for Igo9 :—
Chairman—S Margerison, Calverley, Leeds.

Mr. C. A. CHEETHAM has been a very energetic worker during
the year, and has discovered many rare and good plants. His
best are the mosses :—
cé
1. Myurella julacea var. scabrifolia on the Yoredale “ Main
Limestone,” east of Ingleboro’, There is only one
other record for the var., viz., V.C. 88 or Mid Perth.

Rhabdoweisia denticulata at Cautley Spout.
Grimmia conferta at Cautley Spout.
Tortula subulata var. subinermis by the Swale at Cundall.
Barbula rubella var. ruberrima at Cautley Spout.
Webera elongata on the slopes of Penyghent.
Amblystegium fluviatile at Cundall by the Swale.
. Hypnum sarmentosum var. fallaciosum on Ingleboro’.
. Hylocomium rugosum at Malham Tarn and Gordale Scar_
Mr. J. W. H. JOHNSON has found Grimmia doniana in Crum-
mock Dale, Ingleboro’, and Hypnum sarmentosum in Littondale.
Mr. ALB. WILSON has sent Bryum duvaliu from above Cautley

Mr. W. INGHAM has found a great many rarieties during the
year, too many to mention in this short report. Those most.
worthy of record are as follows :— |
1. Hepatics.—Cephaloztella bifida c. fr. on Skipwith Common
(teste S. M. Macvicar) ; Scapaniairrigua and A ploza.
sphaerocarpa, three miles from York by Malton Road.

3. TRuE Mosses.—Hypnum Wialsont var. hamatum on Skip-
with Common (teste Renauld) ; Leptodontium flexi-
folium on hillside descending to Wheeldale, Goath-
land, a large form; Hypnum vernicosum in Beck

by W. Ingham, by Semmerwater, adding two definite
records to the solitary one in Baker’s N. Yorkshire
for this very rare moss; Dicranum Bonjeant var.
calcareum in fruit in Stockton Forest, the fruit being
exceedingly rare for this variety, and difficult to
find, the fruit being apparently hitherto unknown
with the var.; Amblystegium Juratzkanum, good
and typical, on Skipwith Common, also good
var. intermedium of Hypnum aduncum on the same
Common; Barbula rigidula var. obtustfolia Ingh. MS.

Mycological Committee. — Mr. C. Crossland writes :—
More attention than ever before has been given to Mycology at
the several meetings during the year. One or other of the Com-
mittee have made a point of attending each excursion; at the
Brafferton-Topcliffe meeting three were present. Clapham and
Hampole only have been unrepresented, but at the latter meeting
Mr. Malone, Bradford, and Mr. Jones, York, collected specimens of
al] the fungi they saw, and forwarded them to the writer. Both
consignments contained uncommon species, one being a welcome
confirmation of a very old record which we consider quite equal
to a new find.
In the June issue of ‘‘ The Naturalist,’’ the second instal-
ment of newly discovered fungi in Yorkshire since the publication
of the Yorkshire Fungus Flora, made its appearance, and included
one new to science, and twenty-four new to the county, bringing
up the total to 2706. Another batch of new finds is in preparation.
FORTY-SEVENTH ANNUAL REPORT, FOR 1908. 29
Excellent results attended the Topcliffe, Hornsea, and Qs-
motherley excursions, particulars of which will be found in the
pages of “ The Naturalist.”” At Osmotherley, a puff-ball new to
Britain (Bovistella paludosa) was found.
The Mulgrave Foray was the most successful ever held in
this country, no fewer than 611 species being found. Of these,
two, or perhaps three, are new to Britain, and about thirty
new to Yorkshire. This is the third visit to that rich mycological
locality.
Upon the whole, the present year may be considered to be
the most profitable the Committee has hitherto experienced.
On summing up the finds of the year it is ascertained that four
or five are additions to the British, and forty-one to the York-
shire Fungus Flora. In addition to the new county species,
the knowledge of the distribution of fungi throughout the five
vice-counties composing Yorkshire is being constantly increased,
and is being regularly posted up in an interleaved copy of the
Yorkshire Fungus Flora, kept for that special purpose.
The Committee decided to recommend Castle Howard as
the place for next year’s foray, September 18th to 23rd.
The following members form the Committee for Igog :—
Chairman—George Massee, Kew.
Convener—C. Crossland, 4 Coleridge Street, Halifax.

GEOLOGICAL SECTION.
The Secretaries, Messrs. A. J. Stather and E. Hawkesworth,
write :—Interest in the work of this section has been well
maintained, though some of the excursions have not been
very attractive from a geological point of view. The Top-
cliffe meeting was very disappointing, as, on account of the
Swale being in flood, the only exposure of solid rock (Lias) was
inaccessible. The Hornsea meeting afforded a good opportunity
for inspecting the interesting sections of glacial and post-glacial
deposits exposed in the Holderness coast. The attendance at
-Hampole was small, the study of the Permian rocks offering little
30 YORKSHIRE NATURALISTS’ UNION.
attraction, though it is difficult to understand why this should be,
as they present many features of interest and many problems for
solution. The Osmotherley meeting was not as successful as it
might have been, owing to the unavoidable distance of head-
quarters from the scene of operations. To the geologists, the
meeting at Clapham was ¢he meeting of the year. The attendance
was large, and the fact that those present had the great privilege
of the guidance of Professor T. McKenny Hughes, who has made
a life study of the geology of the district, makes it almost un-
necessary to record that much knowledge was gained of the
Ordovician, Silurian, and Lower Carboniferous rocks, so well
exposed in that area. Details of the geological observations
made at the excursions have been published in “ The Naturalist ”
for December.
The following were elected for 1999 :—
President—A. R Dwerryhouse, D.Sc., Leeds. on
Secretaries—Cosmo Johns, Burngrove, Pitsmoor Road, Sheffield;
E. Hawkesworth, Sunnyside, Crossgates, Leeds.
Representative on Executive—Godfrey Bingley.
Representative on Committee of Suggestions—Professor Kendall.
Geological Photographs Committee. — Mr A. J. Stather
reports:—The albums of geological photographs in possesion of
the Union have not been circulated amongst the various asso-
ciated societies so much during the past as in previous years.
But where they have been exhibited they have been examined
with considerable interest.
The prints that have from time to time been sent by this
Committee to the collection in the possession of the British
Association, have also been appreciated, and their geological
value felt, as the secretary has received applications from other
parts of the country for duplicate prints of some of them.
The following prints have been added to the Union’s collection
during the year :-—

Glacial Committee.—The Secretaries write:—Some very —
interesting items are recorded by the members of the Hull Geo-
logical Society in the East Riding, which will be more fully
reported later.
Messrs. C. H. Thompson and H. H. Denham have been work- 4
ing the Holderness drifts on the sea-coast of Aldbro’. On the
beach, about half tide, they found a mass of Speeton Clay bouldered
in the purple drift, measuring roughly twelve feet by seven feet,
and showing the lines of bedding still intact.
It was full of wncvushed fossils, including Exogyra sinuata,
Bel. lateralis, Astarte senecta, small lamellibranchs, and a large
number of Ammonites. The fossils show that it belongs to the D4
Division of the Speeton Clay (Lamplugh). This locality is thirty
miles south of Speeton.
At Mappleton, four miles north of Aldbro’, Mr. J. W. Stather
records a still larger mass of Speeton Clay, twelve yards by nine
or ten yards, and containing many belemnites and ammonites.
Mr. Stather also saw large masses of a blacker clay, with
crushed ammonites, etc., which he thinks is Kimeridge Clay.
Mr. T. Sheppard reports the finding of two separate pieces of ~
black flint in the Holderness drifts,* in each of which is embedded 7
a Belemnite (B. lanceolatus). This speces does not occur in the 7}
chalk of Yorkshire, though it is very commonly met with in the 7J
boulder clay and gravel; where, also, blocks of black flint are ¥J
found in plenty—a material also foreign to the Yorkshire chalk ~}
It would therefore appear that both the black flint and the
Belemnite have probably been derived from an outcrop in the
North Sea.
Mr. Thompson has also collected Lias ammonites in large
numbers in the locality of Aldbro’. All zones of the Lias are ~
represented except the yamesont zone. The nature of the matrix J.
of the fossils differs very much from that of our North Yorkshire ~
specimens. A lengthy list of Liassic Cephalopoda collected from §
the Holderness drift is being printed by the Hull Geological |
Society. |
There are further records from other directions, but nothing
new. 7

The Yorkshire Coast Erosion Committee.— Mr. E. R.
Matthews reports that considerable erosion hastaken place
on the Holderness coast and other parts of the Yorkshire
coast during the present year. On January 8th, after a
strong north-westerly gale had been blowing for several days
a very heavy sea occurred, the tide being exceptionally high,
and not only was a great deal of damage done to the sea defences
at Bridlington, Scarborough, and other places, but the erosion of
the cliffs immediately to the north of Bridlington, and along the
Holderness coast was very considerable. At Bridlington, an old
box groyne, which had been erected about forty years previously,
'was entirely demolished, and another very much damaged.
about thirty planks being torn off the latter, and some thirty to
forty tons of chalk filling being washed out.
About the middle of August last, an exceptionally high tide
' with very heavy sea occurred. No serious damage was done,
| but the erosion on the Holderness coast received a great impetus.
_ For several days previously, on this occasion also, a strong north-
westerly gale had been blowing. Early in the present year I
had a notice board fixed well up in the cliffs on the south side of
Bridlington. I found, on inspecting this part of the coast recently,
that the cliffs where I had fixed the board had been eroded to
'such an extent that the notice board had washed away, and was
lying at the foot of the cliff near by.

34 YORKSHIRE NATURALISTS’ UNION.
Report on the Work of the Carboniferous Flora and
Fauna Committee :—Considerable progress has been made during
the year, in the work for which the Committee has been appointed.
Owing to the numerous sinkings and borings now being made near
Doncaster, Mr. Culpin has been able to continue his valuable
investigations, and the vertical distribution of a marine fauna in
the coal measures is now known so well, that the relation of the
principal marine bands to the Barnsley coal seam can be used
in any exploration work that may be undertaken in the unproved —
portion of the coalfield. The Committee have pleasure in record-
ing their obligation to the many mining engineers and coal owners,
who have not only taken an interest in the work, but have given
much assistance. It is hoped that there will be opportunities
in the near future to determine the position of the marine bands.
below the Barnsley seam. The Millstone Grit series is being
investigated by several workers, and, though the difficulties are
great, sound progress is being made. The Lower Carboniferous
Rocks between, and North of, the Craven Faults, have now been
zoned, and the broad lines of the faunal distribution determined.
The sequence described by Dr. Vaughan in the Avon Section,
and afterwards confirmed in South Wales, has been found to hold
good in N.W. Yorks. A small faulted mass of Tournasian age
occurs near Sedbergh, and this represents the oldest Carboniferous
Rocks known to occur in Yorkshire. They are much lower in
the sequence than the calcareous conglomerate at the base of
the Great Scar Limestone of Ingletondale. They rest on a great
thickness of Red Conglomerate, which was considered by the
Survey Officers to be ‘“‘ Basement Carboniferous,” though coloured
red on the geological maps. This correlation has not been con-
firmed by the writer, who, from the absence of fossils in, and the
very different lithological character of, this striking conglomerate
with its ferruginous matrix and dull red colour, has felt it necessary
to exclude it from the Carboniferous system. It is very probable
that the conclusions of the older geologists that it represented
some stage of the Old Red Sandstone, is more correct, and this
seems to be the opinion of Professor MacKenny Hughes. It
is hoped that the results of the work on the Lower Carboniferous
Rocks will be communicated early next year. or
Dr, Kidston writes :—‘‘I have been unable to complete
another Report. I have the material for one, and will endeavou
to have it for our next Annual Meeting: Much valuable materia
has been slowly passing through my hands from Yorkshire, whic
will include, I think, several additions to the Yorkshire | Coa
Flora.”

OTHER COMMITTEES.
Committee for Suggestions.—The Convener reports—The
Thorne Waste Survey was organised, and several workers were
prepared to start. The owners and tenants of the Waste were
approached for permission. They, however, sent a representative
to explain to Mr. Corbett that for reasons given, they could not
sanction the proposed survey. A survey of Austwick Moss,
Clapham, on the same lines has since been proposed, and it is
hoped it can be carried out.
———
An investigation was made in February of tree remains in
peat on Stanbury and adjoining moors. The results were satis-
| factory, and were briefly described in the Bradford press. Al-
_ though the whole of the material is not yet examined, it is quite’
| certain that remains of coniferous trees, probably Scots Pine,
/ occur in the peat at three stations in this district, varying from
/I100 to 1400 feet altitude.
The Committee for 1909 is as follows :—
Chairman—P. F. Kendall, M.Sc., Chapel Allerton, Leeds ;

Soppitt Memorial Library.—Twenty-seven volumes and
papers have been circulated during the year, but no additions
have been made. The original intention to keep a set of the
Union’s publications in the library has, unfortunately, not yet
been accomplished, but arrangements have been made for this to
be done.
British Association.—Mr. Sheppard was appointed delegate
to represent the Union at the Conference of delegates from the
corresponding societies held in connection with the meeting of
the British Association at Dublin in September. The President
of the Conference, Professor H. A. Miers, delivered an address
entitled, ‘““ The Educational Opportunities of Local Scientific
Societies,’’ in which he paid a special tribute to the excellence of.
the suggestions made in Mr. G. W. Lamplugh’s Presidential
Address to the Yorkshire Naturalists’ Union “ On the Necessity
of the Amateur Spirit in Scientific Work,’ which appeared in
“The Naturalist’ for 1906. Other subjects discussed were—
“Detailed Natural History Surveys of Restricted Areas,’ an
important work, suitable for local societies, introduced by Pro-
fessor G. H. Carpenter, Dublin; ‘ The Advisableness of Re-
Stocking Haunts whence Fauna and [Flora have disappeared,”
by H. Davey, Esq., Brighton; and “ Permanent Records of °
Natural History or other Observations, by means of the Card
Catalogue System,” by F. A. Bellamy, Esq., Oxford.
The “ Naturalist’’—Mr. R. Fortune, F.Z.S., has been added
to the list of Referees.
As the list of papers given above shows, this journal has
been the medium of pablishing a number of papers and notes
directly resulting from the Union’s work, and the Editors are to
be congratulated on the maintenance of the high standard to
which it has for many years attained. The journal is the recognised —
medium for publication of matter relating to the eleven most

take too narrow a view of their duties, it is hoped that our
members and others resident in the area to which its operations
have, in the main, been restricted, will continue to keep the
Editors well supplied with good local matter.
The Presidency of 1909 has been offered to and accepted by
Mr. W. H. St. Quintin, J.P., of Scampston, Yorks.
The Union wishes to record its indebtedness to its retiring
President, Dr. Wheelton Hind, F.G.S., for his services during the
year.
Other Officers.—In addition to the President, Divisional
Secretaries, Local Treasurers, etc., already reféfred to, the

BIBLIOGRAPHY:
Papers and Records published with respect to the Geology
and Palzontology of the North of England, 1902-1908.
Compiled and edited by
THOMAS SHEPPARD, F.G.S., F.S.A.(Scot.).
PARTICULARS of papers, etc., omitted from the following lists
will be gladly received and included at the commencement of
the 1908 Bibliography. Every effort is made, however, to
ensure these lists being as complete as possible.
It would render these lists more complete if editors of
periodicals, secretaries of societies, and especially authors of
papers in local journals, etc., would send copies to the editor
at the Museum, Hull. Reprints and authors’ separate copies
should bear the name of the publication, the number of the
volume or part, the original paging, and the actual date of
publication.
As regards dating, we would suggest to editors and
secretaries that care be taken to give the actual date of
publication on the wrapper of all parts of journals and trans-
actions; there is often difficulty and uncertainty. Biblio-
graphers would greatly appreciate attention to this point.
The Watsonian vice-counties are adopted throughout
these bibliographies as more convenient and uniform in extent
than the political counties ; those comprised within the North
of England are the following :—
Pe uincolns.; 54, Lincoln N.; 56, Notts.; 57, Derby;. 58,
Cheshire ;-59, Lancashire S. ; 60, Lancashire W. ; 61, York
me 62) York NE. ; 63, York S.W.; 64, York Mid. W. ;

FOR THE INVESTIGATION OF
THE VALLEY OF THE SKELL,
ON
Saturday, May 6th, I[905.
RAILWAY ARRANGEMENTS.—Through return tickets at pleasure
party rates will be issued at all stations on the G.C., G.N., H. & B., L. &Y.,
L. & N.W., Midland, and N.E. Railways which have booking arrangements for
'Ripon to Members and Associates of the Y.N.U. surrendering the Certificate
noted below. Tickets taken on Friday, May 5th, will be available for return on
/ Monday, May 8th. Where through bookings are not in operation Members may
| book to most convenient junction, and re-book to destination; the reduced fares
_ N.B.—The Railway Booking Clerks will only grant these reduced

Signed by the Secretary of the Union. Members and Associates
Wishing for this Certificate must apply to Mr. Sheppard for it,
and must enclose a stamped directed envelope and their current
card of membership of the Union, which latter will be returned
With the Certificate. At stations on the N.E. Rly. tickets at the
‘reduced fares will be issued on production of the signed card of
‘membership.
W BOOKS AND MAPS.—-The whole area is included in Sheets 61 and 62
of the One-Inch Ordnance Map, which may be obtained geologically coloured.
jsee Davis & Lee’s ‘‘ West Yorkshire,” Lee’s ‘‘ Flora of West Yorkshire,” and
|Yaous papers in the ‘‘ Naturalist.”
__THE DISTRICT to be investigated is practically the whole of the Skell
Valley from Ripon, through the grounds of Fountains and Spa Gill.
|. ROUTES.—Members will meet at the Station upon the arrival of 10-37 train
jitom the south, and proceed via Borrage Lane, following the River Skell; through
Mackershaw Wood, the grounds of Fountains Abbey, and then into Spa Gill.
| the Studley Park may also be visited. Mr. B. Smith will act as guide.
Members arriving by later trains may follow the route of the first party, or Bh
proceed by one of the conveyances direct to Studley (fares 6d. each, motor bus gd.), —
when they can either proceed up the valley into Spa Gill, or down into Mackershaw
Woods.
PERMISSION to visit his property has been kindly granted by the Rt. Hon.
Lord Marquis of Ripon, K.G. Production of the signed card of membership will
be necessary to enter Fountains Abbey grounds.
N.B.—Members are requested to take care not to disturb the breeding |
pheasants.
GEOLOGY.—The Geological Section will be officially represented by the
Rev. W. Lower Carter, M.A., F.G.S.
Mr. B. M. Smith writes :—The Skell traverses the Magnesian Limestone, which
is in evidence at Whitecliffe, where the marble floor of the Skell is distinctly
interesting. One peculiarity of this river is that shortly after leaving the lake at
Studley the volume of water is suddenly diminished and a full stream becomes at
once a rivulet. This has been known for many years, and a former proprietor of
Studley built a compensation canal from the lake to below where the water
disappears at the ‘‘ Devil’s Chimneys.” This canal is still in evidence near the
lake. Near to Whitecliffe, at*‘‘ Hell Wath,” a very strong spring, which report
credits with the long lost stream, bubbles unceasingly and runs into the Skell close
by.
"(There is a spring of mild sulphur water in Spa Gill. The Ripon Corporat o
have recently built a small suite of Baths and are bringing this water from Spa Gill
into Ripon to supply the baths.—R. F.)
The late Rev. J. S. Tute, formerly Vicar of Markington, supplied the following
for circular of Meeting held at Ripon, March 29th, 1880.—‘‘ The Millstone Grit may
be studied in the valley of the Skell near Fountains Abbey. There is one series of
beds (Cayton Gill group) which are three in number; they may be inspected in a
little quarry about half-a-mile west of Fountains on the road to Sawley. The
uppermost bed consists of thin flags, abounding with remains of Encrinites. The
second contains plentiful casts of Brachiopods, and is called the ‘‘ Shell Bed.”
The lowest is a very hard fine-grained sandstone, mottled with carbonaceous
markings, and containing Ledlerophon costatus. At Cayton Gill only the two
upper beds are visible. The fossils found are Osthzs resupinata, O. Michetini,
Productus semireticulatus, P. cora, P. aculeata, Spirifera lineata, S. trigonalis,
S. striata, Spiriferina cristata, S. octoplicata, Streplorhynchus crenistria, Arca sp.,
Strophomena analoga, Chonetes Hardrensis, and Rhynchonella pleurodon.. Above
these beds comes the red grit of the Plumpton series, which further west covers the
hills at Brimham and forms Guy’s Cliff; it may be seen in Studley Park.
The Permian beds rest unconformably upon the Plumpton grit. The junction
may be seen near Fountains above the cliff of grit, and again at a short distance
below Anne Boleyn’s Seat. Many beds are fossiliferous, but in one bed only, near
Aldfield, are the fossils worth searching for, and in this they are very rare.”
BOTANY.—The Botanical Section will be officially represented.
Flowering Plants.— Mr. B. M. Smith writes :—The Skell valley is a delight-
ful botanist’s paradise. Formed by two streamlets, one running from Hungate,
the other from the moors between Grantley and Pateley Bridge, the Skell enters the
park at Grantley, where, by means of a specially constructed dam, Sir C. Furness
is enabled to generate the electricity for supplying the hall and drive in connection
with Grantley Hall. Opposite the hall is a huge hill which for long defied all
efforts to clothe it with verdure, until a shot gun was charged with various seeds
and the desired verdant bank secured. Leaving Grantley Hall, the Skell runs into
Aldfield Wood and Spa Gill. A mild sulphur water from this part has lately been
conveyed to Ripon, and visions of an inland watering place are occupying the
minds of the civic authorities. Numerous ferns and flowers abound, notably
Lamium galeobdolon, Mercurialis perennis, both Chryospleniums, Paris quadrifolia,
several shield ferns, and in the boggy land near Spa House, many marsh plants.
In Aldfield Wood have been found the Oak, Beech, Lemon scented, Broad Shield,
Prickly Shield, and Hart’s tongue (crested variety) Ferns, while “Aépactis latefolia,
and £. palustris are sometimes fairly abundant. Entering the grounds of Fountains
IRCULAR 186.]
Abbey the botanist should see several wall loving ferns, the wild pink, J/¢e2/us,
loe, water lily (yellow), daffodil, etc. A few bushes of Atropa belladonna have
been carefully preserved by Lord Ripon for many years in a secluded spot away
from the public eye. A few years ago the water soldier and white water lily were
planted in the ponds opposite the Temple of Piety as the result of a Y.N.U.
excursion, but I don’t know if they still grow there. It is a place where many
rareties have been found at one time or another. In the Mackershaw Woods the
lily-of-the-valley may be found, while in the pastures beyond, Moonwort, Adder’s
tongue, and Bird’s nest, eot¢2z, have been found. On Whitcliffe the spindle tree
grows, while on Redbank (until lately the race course) Gagea /utea revels. Nothing
of much note occurs as the river winds its way through the city, ultimately
emptying itself into the Ure at Fishergreen.
.
lg
The following have been recorded :—TZhalictrum minus and 7. flavum, Adonis,
Troliius, Helleborus viridis, Aconitum napellus, Actea spicata, Chelidonium majus,
Corydalis claviculata, Reseda lutea and luteola, g Hypericums, ro Geraniums,

cula vulgaris, Anchusa sempervirens, Hyoscyamus niger, Ophrys apifera, and
OO. muscifera.
Dr. Wm. G. Smith writes :—The trees of Studley Park are worthy of attention.
One may find here good examples of almost all the woodland trees grown in
Britain, Old Chesnut, Oak, Ash, Spruce, Hemlock, Fir, Scots Pine, etc. The
route is well suited for observations on botanical survey.
Mosses and Hepatics.—The Yorkshire Bryological Committee will be
officially represented.
On the route mentioned, along the Skell beck, are likely to be found the
following Cryptogams :—Phascum serratum, P. subulatum, P. rectum, P. cuspi-
datum, Gymnostomum conicum, G. Hetmit, G. viridissimum, G. microstomum,
Anectangium ciliatum, Splachnum ampullaceum, Encalypta Starkeana, Weissia

Pottia truncata.
Fungi.—The Yorkshire Mycological Committee will be officially represented
by Mr. Chas. Crossland, F.L.S.
Mr. C. Crossland writes :—In September, 1881, was held the first organised
Yorkshire Fungus Foray, with Leeds as centre. One party visited the Studley
Royal district, and met with many interesting species. At the same time of the
year, which may be called ‘‘the height of the season” for fungi, the Skell valley,
with Mackershaw wood and Foutains Abbey grounds, may have proved equally
prolific and interesting. Still, even at this early date for fungi generally, many
spring species may be found by careful investigation, such, for instance, as
Morchella esculenta, Alitrophora semilibera, and others. Gyvromitia escucenta,
which up to the present has only two Yorkshire records—S.W., Salterhebble, near
Halifax, and Mid.W., Gill Grange,—should be locked for.
VERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY.—The Vertebrate Section will be officially
represented by Mr. Riley Fortune, F.Z.S.
Mammalia.—Mr. R. Fortune writes:— The following may be met with:
Otter, Badger, Fox, Weasel, Stoat, Great Noctule and Pipistrelle Bats (other bats
may be looked for, as this branch has not been worked), Hedgehog, Hare, Rabbit,
Water Vole, Long Tailed Field Mouse, Field Vole, Bank Vole. Studley Park
contains fine herds of Red and Fallow Deer.
Birds.—Mr. R. Fortune writes:—The Skell valley abounds with bird life,
and amongst the rest of feathered inhabitants the following interesting species may
be found nesting: Kestrel, Sparrow Hawk, Tawny, Barn, and Long-eared Owls,
Dipper, Redstart, Grasshopper Warbler, Lesser Whitethroat; Blackcap and
Garden Warblers, Gold Crest, Nut Hatch, Grey, Pied, and Yellow Wagtails, Tree”
Sparrow, Bullfinch, Green and Great Spotted Woodpeckers, Kingfisher, Spotted)
and Pied Flycatchers, Little Grebe, etc. The Studley estate is noted for the large”
numbers of Pheasants bagged during the shooting season.
Reptiles and Amphibia.—Mr. R. Fortune writes :—Have noted the following: -
Toad, Frog, Great Crested and Smooth Newts, Adder, Slow Worm, and common |
Lizard. i
Fishes.—Mr. Riley Fortune writes that the Skell is very prolific in fish life.

BOOKS AND MAPS.—The ance is included in Sheet XVIII. N.E.
(six inches to the mile) and the Sheets N. and S. of the One-Inch Ordnance Map,
which may be obtained geologically coloured. Information regarding the botany
and geology of the district will be found in *‘ North Yorkshire,” by J. G. Baker,
FLR.S., F.L.S. (Y.N.U. Trans.);- and in ‘‘ Geological Rambles in East York-
“shire,” by T. Sheppard, F.G.S.
THE DISTRICT to be investigated is the Sea Coast, consisting of bold
headlands between Skinningrove and Staithes, with a rocky beach exposed at half
tide, and the Glen through which Kilton Beck and its tributaries run from the
’Moorlands to Kilton Viaduct.
Members should book for Loftus. station if arriving on Friday night.’ Those
travelling on Saturday morning may alight at Skinningrove station by trains due
there at 10-47 from Middlesbrough and Saltburn, and join the earlier parties by a
short cut to the coast or up the Kilton Glen. Loftus is on the Saltburn and Whitby. —
Railway ; for train service see North Eastern Railway Guide.
ROUTES.—The geologists arriving on Friday night will start from Loftus and .
reach the coast at Skinningreve Bay (distance one mile) and proceed along the coast
to Staithes if time and tide permit. Those arriving later will alight at Skinningrove
station and follow the earlier party. The botanists and members of other sections
will start from Loftus and proceed by way of Liverton Mines to Kilton Woods
(half-mile). . Later arrivals will alight at Skinnington station and drop down into -
the ravine, following the upward course. of the stream until they overtake the
- earlier party.
Mr. Jef. Burton will accompany the geologists, and Mr. Tom Loftus the
botanists and those investigating Kilton Woods.
Kilton Beck and its tributaries have cut very deep ravines from their source in.
the high moorlands to where they join the sea in Skinningrove Bay. The main-
- streams and the lateral ravines are heavily timbered, and as they are besutifally’s
sheltered. vegetation is luxuriant, and they are a happy hunting ground for the
naturalist. The ravine ds picturesque almost to the romantic. The coast here
wives probably the finést section of the Lias to +e found ‘anywhere, although” the
- cliffs from being so extremely precipitous are almost inaccessible. “The beach is rock —
strewn and will provide plenty of work for the hammer. On the top of Boulby (or |
Rockcliffe) there are remains of very extensive alum works and workings.
Members staying the week end may, by the courtesy of the Cargo Fleet Iron
Co., Ltd., go over Liverton Ironstone Mines, one of the best equipped pune in
Cleveland. ‘
HEADQUARTERS.— Golden‘ Lion Hotel Loftus-in- Clévdand nites
requiring bedroom accommodation should write early to Mr, Nicholson, the pro-_
prietor. Terms: bed, breakfast, and dinner, 7/- each.. Accommodation may monks
be had at the Waverley Temperance Hotel, Loftus-in- Cleveland. ;
PERMISSION to visit their properties has been kindly granted by Ww. H. A. |
Wharton, Esq., Viscount Downe, and the Marquis of Zetland.
GEOLOGY.—The Geological Section will be officially represented by Mr.
Cosmo Johns, F.G.S. .
Mr. W. Y. Veitch, -M.R.C.S., F.G.S., writes :—KiLron CASTLE AND Woops.
The surface geology of Kilton and the neighbourhood is of lower oolite, very freely
covered with boulder clay. Denudation has varied the scenery and even made
romantic the woods and valleys and the site of what remains of Kilton Castle, from

THE 189TH MEETING
WILL BE HELD AT
POCKLINGTON,
Bank Holiday, Aug. 7th, I905.
RAILWAY ARRANGEMENTS.—Through return tickets at pleasure
party rates will. be issued at all stations on the G.C., G.N., H. & B., L. & Y.,
L. & N.W., Midland, and N.E. Railways which have booking arrangements for
Pocklington to Members and Associates of the Y.N.U. surrendering the Certificate
noted below. Tickets taken on Friday, August 4th, will be available for return on
Tuesday, Aug. 8th. Where through bookings are not in operation Members may
hook to most convenient junction, and re-book to destination; the reduced fares
being available for each stage of the journey.
N.B.—The Railway Booking Clerks will only grant these reduced
fares to Members and Associates producing a Special Certificate
signed by the Secretary of the Union. Members and Associates
wishing tor this Certificate must apply to Mr. Sheppard for it,
and must enclose a stamped directed envelope and their current
card of membership of the Union, which latter will be returned
with the Certificate. At stations on the N.E. Rly. tickets at the
reduced fares will be issued on production of the signed card of
membership.
BOOKS AND MAPS.—The whole area is included in Sheets 93 S.E. and
94 S.W. of the One-Inch Ordnance Map, which may be obtained geologically
coloured. See Programme No. 106 (1893), which may be had from the Hon. Sec.,
price 2d.; also ‘‘ The Geology of the country between York and Hull” (Geol.
Survey Mem.) 1886; also the ‘‘ Naturalist ” for 1885, pp. 307-309.
THE DISTRICT to be investigated includes the western escarpment of the
Yorkshire Wolds, and a portion of the Vale of York, which is a broad and ancient
valley excavated in the soft sandstone and marls of the Permian and Triassic Series.
On the western side, the valley is bounded by the gentle dip slope of the Magnesian
Limestone, whilst its eastern boundary is sharply defined by the bold escarpments
of the Jurassic and Cretaceous rocks. Prof. Kendall has recently pointed out that
the features of the solid geology of the neighbourhood of Market Weighton and
Pocklington are of ‘‘ unique interest and importance.” He remarks that ‘*‘ Market
Weighton lies upon the prolongation of the faulted anticline which forms the
northern boundary of the Yorkshire Coalfield to the North of Leeds. The
disturbance was initiated in the interval between the deposition of the Middie Coal
Measures and that of the Permian. No definite signs of Post Permian movement
can be detected in the Triassic rocks of the Vale of York, as they are concealed
beneath a nearly continuous mantle of superficial deposits, but the Jurassic and
Cretaceous rocks of the East Riding show signs which cannot be mistaken of
an intermittent movement by which, either by default of deposition or by frequently
repeated erosions the rising arch was deprived of all the Jurassic Series with the
exception of an attenuated representative of the Lower Lias. In like manner the
Neocomian rocks fail to be represented, except by a few pebbles, and the Red
Chalk rests directly on Lower Lias. The hiatus is filled in tne coast sections from
Speeton northw: ard by a series of Jurassic and Neocomian beds, upwards of two
th ousand feet in thickness, and this will be the measure of the ve/ative uplift of the
Market Weighton axis since Triassic times, but before the deposition of the Chalk.
The disturbed belt extends as far north as Kirkham Abbey, and its prolongation
eastward under the Chalk is proved by the fact that a well at Huggate passed from
Chalk into strata yielding the well-known Ammonztes annularis.”
ROUTES.—SavurpDay: Start from Nunburnholme Station on the arrival of
the 9-47 a.m. train from York, and work round to Pocklington via Warter and
Wharram Percy. Monpay: Leave Pocklington on arrival of the 10-18 a.m. train
from York and Leeds, and examine the ‘district around Great Givendale and
Millington.
PERMISSION to visit their properties has been, kindly granted by Lord
Londesborough, Lord Herries, Mr. Charles H. Wilson, M.P., and Major-General
Duncombe.
HEADQUARTERS.—The Feathers Hotel. Terms: bed, breakfast, dinner,
sandwiches and attendance, 6/- per day. Early application should be made to
Mrs. Nicholls for rooms.

_ GEOLOGY.—The Geological Section will be officially represented by Messrs.
A. J. Stather and J. Cosmo Johns, F.G.S.
Mr. J. W. Stather writes :—Pocklington is situated just outside the western
fringe of the Chalk Wolds, the town itself being on the Keuper beds (Upper Trias)
-of the Vaie of York. The beds likely to be seen during the excursion are :—
(a) The Keuper Marts, upon which Pocklington stands, occur in good section
in a brickyard close to the railway, about a mile from the town.
() The ZLzas, which in this neighbourhood is everywhere conformable to the
underlying Keuper, and can be traced in a narrow strip along the edge of the
“Chalk escarpment. In following the stream up from Nunburnholme to Warter
the zone of Ammonites planorbis may be found, and the A. anguéatus zone is seen
between Millington and Pocklington. The overlying A. ducklandi and A. jamesont
zones are also found as the valley is ascended towards Warter.
(c) Upper Cretaceous. The Chalk Wolds occupy the high ground to the
north and west of Pocklington, and the beds can be examined in numerous
quarries. The Red Chalk (the basement bed of the Upper Cretaceous series)
can be seen resting on the Lias at Warter, and also outcrops in the vicinity of
Millington.
(ad) Superfictal Deposits, The recent gravels which occupy the low ground
in the neighbourhood of Pocklington are worthy of examination, particularly as
regards the contained foreign pebbles.
BOTANY.—The Botanical Section will be officially represented by Mr. J. J.
Marshall.
Flowering Plants.—Mr. J. J. Marshall writes :—During a visit to Aller-
‘thorpe Common and Barmby Moor, the following characteristic sand and
peat loving plants were secured, and some will reward the careful searcher :—
Gentiana pneumonanthe, Comarum palustre (fruit), Jastone montana, Drosera
zntermedta, Ornithopus perpusillus, Galium wuliginosum, Salix repens, Radiola
millegrana and Scleranthus annuus. Malva rotundifolia is frequent by the side of
old buildings in the villages near, and Slee noctiflora, Sanguisorba officinales,
Carduus pratensis, Anagallis tenella, Lamiun: amplexicaule, filago minima,
Centunculus minimus, Rumex hydrolapathum, and Afpera spica-venti have all
been noted on similar ground, within the radius of a few miles. Those who
ascend the higher ground to Kilnwick Percy, the adjacent portion of the Yorkshire
Wolds, will probably meet with Carduus nutans, Scabiosa columbaria and Spirea
_filipendula.
Mosses and Hepatics.—The Yorkshire Bryological Committee will be
officially represented by Mr. Marshall.
Mr. Marshall writes :—Bryologists should be on the look out for the rare
Dicranum undulatum Erhr., as it occurs a few miles away at Market Weighton,
and the rare hepatic, found by the late Dr. Spruce, Haplomitrtum Hookeri Nees,
associated with Mossombronia dumortiera.
Fungi.—The Yorkshire Mycological Committee will be officially represented
by its Secretary.
Mr. Crossland writes:—The Union’s Annual Fungus Foray of 1893 (see
““ Naturalist,” March, 1894) for the investigation of Allerthorpe and Everingham
Woods was held here. That season being excep ionally dry, the results were not
so satisfactory as might have been the case had moister weather prevailed during
August and September. Only about 180 species were noted during the four days’
search, but several of them were of special interest. If this season proves to be
more propitious (for Fungi), and suitable ground is covered, it is possible to add
to our present somewhat scanty knowledge of the Fungus I‘lora of this district.
VERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY.—The Vertebrate Section will be officially
represented Mr. R. Fortune, F.Z.S.
The neighbourhood of Pocklington, as planned for investigation on: thi
occasion, will be found to be, from its varied physical characteristics, rich in forms;
of vertebrate life. On the one side the western escarpment of the Chalk Wolds,
thickly clothed-im -weod, and on the other the agricultural districts of the York
plain, with the extensive unenclosed Allerthorpe Common and its encircling patches
of woodland, all furnish haunts of varying character for birds and mammals,
reptiles and amphibians, while not a few fish should be found in the canal.
For lists see the previous Pocklington Circular.
CONCHOLOGY.—The Conchological section will be officially represented.
Land and Freshwater Mollusca.—The following species have been recorded}
for the district :—Arion ater, A. hortensis, Limax agrestis, L. lavis, L. maximus, |
and L. flavus; Anodonta cygnea (abundant in the lake at Kildwick Fercy), ff
Pisidium pussilum, Planorbis albus, P. complanatus, Limnea peregra, and}
L. truncatula; Zonttes nitidulus, Z. alliartus, Helix aspersa, H. nemoralis,
H. hortensis, H. cantiana, H. hispida, H. rotundata, Bulimus obscurus, Clausilia|
rugosa, C. laminata, Zua lubrica, and Carychium minimum. Heltx arbustorum
and 4/7. virgata are also recorded.
ENTOMOLOGY.—The Entomological Section will be officially represented.
The district is one which should prove most attractive to the entomologist,
owing to the very diversified nature of the country, including as it does, wide
expanses of gorse covered commons, large woods with plenty of open glades, and
many ponds. Allerthorpe Common, in particular, is very good for the ento-
mologists. Here Geotrupes typheus occurs in abundance; J/elolontha vulgaris,
Sermyla halensts, Adalia obliterata, Halyzia 22-punctata, and Coccinella 7-punctata
are very common, and one C. hievoglyphica was obtained. Bolttobius trinotatus
and /. exoletus were found on decaying fungi.
Coleoptera.—The Yorkshire Coleoptera Committee will be officially repre-
sented.
In 1893, when the Union last visited this district, it was a particularly hot |
and dry year, consequently beetles were scarcer than in ordinary seasons. The
present excursion being more than a month earlier, should result in a larger J
number of species, representing many more families, than observed on the former
occasion.
PROGRAMME OF MEETINGS.—(Monday)—
4-15 p.m. prompt—Meat Tea, 1/6 each.
5-0 p.m.—Sectional Meetings.
5-15 p-m.—General Meeting.
In order than an early account of the excursion may appear in the ‘* Naturalist,”
notes and reports should be forwarded before Aug. 14th, to the Secretary
of the Y.N.U., the Museum, Hull.

The following additional species are also recorded in the Trans. Y.N.UL|
as occuring in the Barnsley Canal, viz. :—Planorbis albus, Umbilicatus Se
Unio pictorum, Spherium rivicola, S. pallidum.
ENTOMOLOGY.—The Entomological Section will be officially represented!
by Mr. A. Whitaker, one of its Secretaries.
Macro-Lepidoptera.—Mr. Whitaker writes :—The district to be worked is a
very good one for the Lepidopterist, and the following amongst other species §
occur, and should be obtained in the larval stage if worked for :—JZ. camelina, }
NV. dictae, dictaeoides, dromedarius, and zic-zac, P. bucephala, C. duplaris and
fiuctuosa, A. diluta, A. leporina and alni, B. parthenias, A. betularia var. |

C. rvotundaria, M. liturata, E. lariciata, pulchellata, pygmeata, fraxinata, and
venosata, H. trifasciata (melanic), JAZ. ocellata, hastata and ftristata, and
many others.
Species which occur on the Commons and in the lanes are B. guercets var.
callune, O. potatoria, S. fuliginosa, A. mendica, etc.
Members who can arrange to stay at night and ‘‘sugar” will be sure to.
take C. paleacea, along with other species, if the weather is at all favourable for |
this method of collecting. The following species will also be out, and may be
obtained if worked for :—G. lébatrix, X. fulvago and flavago, A. pistacina, rufina, |
and “ilura, C. miata and imanata, £. alniaria, and pennaria, H. micacea, G.
ochracea, A. suffusa, etc.
One of the most interesting records for the district is the finding of five full |
grown larve of S. convolvuld at Royston, on September 2nd, 1901 (see Naturalist |
for Ig01, pages 289—90).
Coleoptera.—The Yorkshire Coleoptera Committee will be officially represented |
by Messrs. J. W. Carter, F.E.S., and H. Ostheide, F.E.S. |
Mr. E. G. Bayford writes :—The district to be investigated is a very promising
one for the ‘Coleopterist. Uncommon species, such as Dromius g4-notatus,
Bembidium rufescens, Silpha thoracica, S. 4-punctata, Necrodes littoralis, |
Scaphidium g-maculatum, Serica brunnea, and Melandrya caraboides have been |
found there. The lateness of the excursion should result in a preponderance of |
species of a fungus-loving nature, if the weather has been favourable to the growth |
of Fungi. Of these a number have already been recorded from the district, |
Leistotrophus, Staphylinus, Oxyporus, Bolitobius, and Triphyllus being the
principal genera represented. |
PROGRAMME OF MEETINGS.—

THE AREA TO BE INVESTIGATED includes Maltby Wood, King’s
Wood, Sandbeck Park, the woods adjoining Firbeck Hall, and the grounds
surrounding Roche Abbey.
HEADQUARTERS will be at the White Swan Hotel, Maltby. Terms, 6/-
per day, including bed, breakfast, sandwiches for out-lunch, dinner and attendance.
Dinner will be served each day at 5 p.m., with the exception of Sunday at I p.m.
Those intending to be present must communicate wich Mr. C. Weightman, the
proprietor, early in September, stating they are attending the Foray.
The headquarters being six miles from Rotherham, the nearest railway station,
conveyances have been arranged for to meet the arrival there of the 1-56 at the
G.C., and the 1-57 at the Midland stations. Fare to Maltby, 1/- each, for party
of ten or twelve. Members or visitors arriving at any other time will make their
own arrangements for reaching Maltby. J. Moorhouse, Livery Stables, Ship
Hill, Rotherham, will provide conveyances at a few minutes’ notice.
Mycologists and naturalist students generally from any society are invited
to attend and take part in the work. It is the intention of the Mycological
Committee to make this five days foray as educational as possible The
specimens collected, suitable for exhibition, will be classified, named, and arranged —
on tables in systematic order. A commodious, well lighted room, with adjoining °
work-room, has been secured from Monday morning to Thursday morning. —
All the necessary books and microscopes will be available.
Stereoscopic and other photographs and coloured drawings of Fungi will be
on exhibit.
ROUTES.—Members will assemble at headquarters on the Saturday afternoon
and arrange for a short foray in the immediate neighbourhood.
MonpDa&Y will be given to the investigation’ of Maltby Wood, the ‘entrance to
which is reached by a ten to fifteen minutes’ walk.
TUESDAY, Roche Abbey grounds and King’s Wood.
WEDNESDAY, Sandbeck Park and Firbeck.
Excursions set out each morning at 9-30.
Tuesday will be the principal evening for the exhibition. Mr. Massee will
give his annual address, and a paper on ‘‘ Economic Fungi” (IV) will be read by
Mr. J. H. Holland, of the Museum, Royal Gardens, Kew.
On Wednesday evening, the Meeting of the Mycological Committee will be
held for transaction of business—reports, place of meeting for next year’s foray,
election of President, Secretary, and Committee, votes of thanks, etc.
Consignments of Fungi may be sent from any part of Yorkshire or Lincolnshire
by parcel post, addressed to Mr. Crossland, c/o. Mr. C. Weightman, White
Swan Hotel, Maltby. These should be carefully packed with grass or moss
(not paper) in suitable boxes.
There do not appear to have been any Fungi recorded in the ‘ Naturalist =
for this district. The May Meeting held here’ in 1884 was too early in the season ~
for many of this class of plant.
The ‘* History of Roche Abbey,” by J. H. Aveling: Worksop 1870, contains
in an addendum ‘‘The Flora of Roche Abbey,” including a list of Fungi; these
are to be found in Lees’ ‘‘ Flora of West Yorkshire.” Among them are many
uncommon species, several of which will most likely be met with by a careful
investigation of the district. The pastures, woodlands, and other shaded places
should also produce additions to the Yorkshire, if not to the British Flora. *~

MAPS and BOOKS.—The District to be traversed is on sheet 69 of the one
inch Ordnance Survey Map. For the glacial geology reference may be made to
papers by Mr. ]. E. Wilson and by Messrs. Albert Jowett and H. B. Muff, read to
the British Association at their Bradford Meeting, 1900, and printed in the
‘¢ Bradford Scientific Journal” — the publieation of the Bradford Scientific
Association—and to a fuller paper by Messrs. Jowett and Muff, in the Proceedings
of the Yorkshire Geological and Poiytechnic Society, vol. xv., part ii, 1904. The
British Association Handbook to Bradford and the neighbourhood gives notes
on the botany, geology, zoology, entomology, and meteorology of Bradford.
CHELLOW DEAN and BELL DEAN.—The existence of an extra
morainic lake, due to the damming up of the Bradford Beck, was noted by Professor
H. Carvil Lewis in a paper read to the British Association in 1887. The evidence
has since been very fully worked by Mr. J. E. Wilson, and by Messrs. A. Jowett
and H. B. Muff, and by a Committee of the Bradford Scientific Association, who
had the late Mr. J. Monckman, D.Sc., as recorder. These workers have shown
that the glacier occupying the main valley of the Aire and the lower part of its
tributary valleys obstructed the normal courses of the water flowing from the
unglaciated area on the Pennine Hills, and impounded it in the upper parts of the
tributary valleys. In this manner a chain of six lakes was formed fringing the
south western margin of the ice. The surplus waters discharging from each lake
passed into the next lake to the south and east, whilst the discharge from the
ilowest—the Bradford lake—escaped across the main watershed into the Spen Valley,
and so into Calderdale. The district selected for an excursion is the ridge
separating the lowest of these lakes from the one above it—that occupying the
Harden and Cottingley valleys. This ridge is gashed through by a series of dry
valleys, which afford, according to Messrs. Jowett and Muff, evidence of no fewer
than seven stages in the advance, retreat, readvance and final retreat of the ice.
Chellow Dean is the most important of these valleys, and it is now occupied by
two service reservoirs for the Bradford water supply. At the maximum extension
of the Chellow Dean must have been entirely under the Glacier, which at Harrop
Edge, a little to the north-west, overtopped the gooft. contour line.
Bell Dean, which will also be visited if the weather is suitable, was a link
.in the chain of channels draining the whole series of lakes at the maximum
extension of the ice. The lake at its upper end—in Stream Head—must have been
very small, but since the surplus waters of other lakes—about Denholme, on
Oxenhope Moors, and in the Worth Valley between Crow Hill and Ponden—
drained through it, the volume of water finding its way into the Bradford Valley
through Bell Dean must have been considerable. From the hill-top about
Thornton distant views may be obtained of others in the system of overflow
channels.
THE CARTWRIGHT HALL, was opened in the early part of last year, having
been built at a total cost of about £70,000, of which £47,500 was the gift of Lord
Masham. The building stands in the park of, and occupies the actual site of Lord
Masham’s ancestral home, the estate having been sold to the Corporation of
Bradford in 1870, as a public park. The building arose out of a desire of Lord
Masham to do honour to the memory of the Kev. Dr. Edmund Cartwright (b. 1743—
-d. 1823), the inventor of the power-loom and one of the pioneers in the invention
of a wool-combing machine. A fine statue of Cartwright, by Mr. H. C. Fehr,
decorates the reception Hall. The upper floor of the building is used as a picture-
gallery for the city, and will, on the visit of the Union, be arranged with the
permanent collection of pictures. The lower-floor is to be devoted to museum
purposes. One of the rooms is to be occupied by a series—not yet arranged—of
exhibits illustrating the development of the human arts. A small-room adjoining
will contain a series of pictures and antiquities of a local character.
The other end of the building, in which a special exhibition is arranged for the
occasion of the visit of the Yorkshire Naturalists’ Union, has been allotted by the
_ Museum Committee of the Bradford Corporation, to a natural history museum.
A scheme has been drawn up by the Council of the Bradford Scientific Association,
and has received the approval of the Museums Committee, for the constitution of
the natural history museum. It is intended that the museum shall have the special
purpose of illustrating the natural history of Yorkshire, and of Morecambe Bay.
The main room at the west end of the building will be for the public exhibits, and.
the smaller room adjoining will form a students’ room, with reference collections in
cabinets, covering a wide scope.
The Bradford Corporation have already a good nucleus for a museum. They
recently acquired the Herbarium of Dr. F. Arnold Lees, the author of the study of
** West Yorkshire,” and of the ‘*‘ West Riding Flora.” This Herbarium contains
over 20,000 specimens all carefully selected, and in fine condition, and many
specimens are of historic interest. With one exception all the species of flowering
plants known to have occurred in Britain are included in the collection, which, it
is said, has no equal out of London. A section of the collection will be exhibited
during the meeting of the Union. Dr. Lees’ Botanical Library, which accompanied
the Herbarium to the Cartwright Hall, contains many privately printed and other
rare books. The Corporation also received by the bequest of the late John
Bennett, of Bradford, the very fine entomological collection formed some thirty
years ago by the late James Varley, of Huddersfield, one of the earliest members of
the old West Riding Consolidated Naturalists’ Societies, and well known as an
entomologist and ornithologist. This collection contains a fairly complete series of
British specimens of the Lepidoptera, including original specimens of the variety of
the common currant moth, named after Mr. Varley, its discoverer, (Adraxas
grossulariata, var. Varleyata.) In the department of geology, the museum contains
a well-selected type collection of British fossils, a bequest from the late Mr. John
McLandsborough, F.R.Met.L.Soc.
Many years ago the Bradford Philosophical Society, had in the town, an
excellent natural history museum, which was organized and arranged under the
curatorship of Professor Miall, now of Leeds University. Thirty years since the
Council of the Society came to the conclusion that the museum could not effectively
continue its work as an educational factor in the town, until more suitable and
commodious premises were provided. An effort to build a new Museum in
conjunction with an Art School coming to nothing, the collections have ever since
been stored. The fossils and mineralogical collections are especially valuable, and
include a fine saurian of the Coal Measures. These have been removed from their
hiding place and have been lent by the Philosophical Society to the Cartwright
Hall. Other smaller collections are also in hand, and it is hoped in the course of a
short time to organize a really good permanent natural history department of the
museum.
Included in the temporary exhibition arranged in connection with the visit of
the Unions, will be a large number of interesting birds and mammals lent by many
Yorkshire and other naturalists, and including a complete series of specimens of all
the Yorkshire bats, lent by Mr. Arthur Whitaker and Mr. Jos. Armitage, of
Barnsley ; and, it is hoped, living specimens of the English black-rat, and of the
Orkney Vole, lent by Mr. Riley Fortune, F.Z.S., of Harrogate. There will also.
be a collection, for which Sir Mathew Wilson, Bart., of Eshton Hall, and others.
are lending material, illustrating the contributions to science of Bradford mem
of past generations.
THE BOTANICAL GARDEN.—The Botanical Garden in Lister Park,
Manningham, is a short distance to the north-west of the Cartwright Hall.
The site measures two acres, and is specially fortunate in having a naturak
beck running beside it. This has made easy the provision of a bog, a lily-pond,
and a water-fall (for ferns, etc.). In April, 1903, a commencement was made, and
the structural work was almost completed in the last season. Thanks to much
kind help from the Royal Gardens, Kew, and scores of private donors, a fine
collection of plants, aggregating 1,700 species, has already been brought together.
These are arranged for the most part in natural orders, but there is a series of
beds for the display of Alpines, etc. The end of January is not, perhaps, a
favourable time for the inspection of the garden, but throughout the last season
it abundantly justified its establishment as a very charming and interesting feature,
and the frequent public lectures which were given in the garden undoubtedly gave a
considerable stimulus to botanical study.

THE 193RD MEETING
WILL BE HELD AT
INGLETON
ON
jaturday, May 12th, to Monday, Way W4th, 1906.
RAILWAY ARRANGEMENTS.—-Through return tickets at pleasure
party rates will be issued at all stations on the G:C., G.N., H. & B., L. & Y.,
L. & N.W., Midland, and N.E. Railways, which have booking arrangements for-
Ingleton, to Members and Associates of the Y.N.U., surrendering the
Certificate noted below. Tickets taken on Friday, May 11th, will be, available
for return on Tuesday, May 15th. Where through, bookings are not in operation
Members may book to most convenient junction, and, ré-book, to destination,
the reduced fares being available foreach stage of the journey.
N.B.—The Railway Booking Clerks will only grant these reduced fares to Members
and Associates producing a Special Certificate signed by the Secretary of the Union.
Members and Associates wishing for this Certificate must apply to Mr. Sheppard for it,
and must enclose a stamped directed envelope and their current card of membership
of the Union, which latter will be returned with the Certificate. At stations on the
N.E. Rly. tickets at the reduced fares will be issued on production of the signed card
of membership.
BOOKS AND MAPS.--The whole area is included in Sheet 97, S.W.,
of the One-Inch Ordnance Map, which may be obtained geologically coloured.
Mr. Speight’s work on the Craven and North-West Yorkshire Highlands contains
chapters on the Geology and Flora of the district ; and so does Miss Balderston’s
‘‘Ingleton Bygone and Present.” There are papers by Prof. T. Mc. K. Hughes,
F.R.S., in Vol. XIV. of the Yorkshire Geological Society’s Proceedings, on the
Geography and Stratigraphy of Ingleborough. Davis and Lee’s ‘* West York-
shire” also relates to the Geology and Botany of Ingleton.
THE DISTRICT to be investigated consists of the well-known hill
‘* Ingleborough ” and the neighbourhood—the hill itself having a base of some 30
square miles.
HEADQUARTERS.—Ingleborough Hotel, Ingleton.
ROUTES.— Geologists arriving at 9-30 a.m. will proceed under the leadership
of Mr. E. Hawkesworth va Jenkingill, Skirwith, Chapel le Dale, and the Ingleton
and Thornton Rocks. Those arriving at 10-55 will proceed by the same route
under the leadership of Mr. W. Robinson. Both parties will meet at the Granite
quarry,
PERMISSION (to visit their property has been kindly granted by The
Ingleton Granite Co., Ltd., and the Manager, Mr. Tate, has kindly offered to
afford information and help to the various parties.
GEOLOGY.—The Geological Section will be officially represented by its
President, Mr. Cosmo Johns, and the Carboniferous Fauna and Flora Committee
by Mr. E, Hawkesworth.
Mr. Cosmo Johns, F.G.S., writes:—There are two outstanding problems
awaiting solution at Ingleton. The first is that of the Craven Faults. During the
Tiddeman—Marr controversy it was very clear that much of the misunderstanding
was due to lack of information regarding these faults. Dr. Marr insisted on the
existence of an overthrust to explain the ‘‘reef knolls” of the Craven district, and
the admitted difference in the character of the Carboniferous rocks north and south
of the faults. Mr. Tiddeman considers the Craven Faults to have been in action
during Carboniferous times, and offered another explanation of the ‘‘ knolls.” The
solution of the difficulty is probably rather more complicated than either of the
authors realised, and a first step towards simplifying things would be to determine
ths character of the faults in the area to be visited. The next problem, and perhaps
the most pressing, is that of determining the exact horizon of the Carboniferous
basement conglomerate—or in its absence, that of the lowest Carboniferous beds—
as compared with the sequence of the Bristol and South Wales areas. In York-
shire, wherever exposed, the Carboniferous rocks rest on the upturned edges of the
Silurians. In the two southern areas mentioned the Carboniferous beds lie
conformably on the old Red-Sandstone. The important point to determine is at
what horizon of the Bristol and South Wales sequence were the basement beds of
Yorkshire laid down. The zonal classification of Dr. Vaughan will be used, and
the Corals and Brachiopods used as zone fossils, It is hoped that something
definite will be done.
Mr. W. Robinson writes:—Eliminating for the moment the problems
connected with the Great Faults running along its south western slope, ‘‘ Ingle-
borough” may be regarded as typical of the adjacent grit-topped hills, and forms
| “CIRCULAR 193.4
an admirable and interesting object lesson for the young geologist. It is perched
on a battered old Silurian floor, exposed to view in many places, but in none more
| conspicuously than in the country proposed to be traversed by the Geological
| Section. The imagination may be called into play when thinking of the initial
| history of these old Silurian rocks, and of their chequered course through long aeons
| of time, unaffected probably by the seas and great lakes of Devonian age, until
| finally they were covered by the encroaching waters, and so became the platform on
| which the great Scar limestone beds, now so useful a feature in the landscape, were
successively deposited. Resting on these massive limestones there follow in regular
| sequence the Yoredales of Phillips ; the whole being topped by grits of early Mill-
| stone age. Doctor Hind, at a recent meeting of the Yorkshire Geological Society,
pointed out that the ‘‘ Yoredales” were but a phase in the Carboniferous System
due to physiographical conditions, and that their distinctive character resulted
probably from a deposition in the delta of some great river flowing approximately
from the north-east. As these beds would necessarily thin out as they approach
the margin of the delta, Dr. Hind’s theory may be helpful in explaining the
dissimilarity of the Carboniferous beds north and south of the Great Faults.
BOTANY.—The Botanical Section will be officially represented by Dr.
W. G. Smith (President).
Flowering Plants.—Mr. P. Fox Lee writes :—The first excursion for 1879,
the first of the Union’s Rambles, was held at Ingleton, on Easter Monday, 14th
April. In the Circular issued on that occasion, Mr. William West gave a list of
fHowering plants he had noted there in the previous.April, viz. :—Saxifraga
oppositifolia, Sesleria caerulea, Sedum Rhodiola, Asplenium viride, Lycopodium
alpinum, and L. Selago. Also Mr. Hindson, of Kirby Lonsdale, added a few
others occurring in the district, but at a little later time of the year. I, too, have
gathered there Primula farinosa, Ophrys musctfera, Habenaria albida, Paris
quadrifolia, and Schenus nigricaus, although these will not be sufficiently advanced
now to be noticeable,
BOTANICAL SURVEY COMMITTEE.—A survey of some area will be carried out
during this meeting. Members and others wishing to join in survey work may
ascertain details from the Convener (Dr. W. G. Smith), at Ingleton on Saturday
morning.
Mosses and Hepatics.—The Yorkshire Bryological Committee will be
officially represented by Mr. Wm. Ingham, B.A., who writes :—Ingleton is an
excellent centre for the bryologist. Among the many mosses found close by
Ingleton are Polytrichum strictum, Dicranella squarrosa, Grimmia apocarpa vax.
rivularis, Rhacomitrium protensum, Ptychomitrium polyphyllum, Hypnum
Sfalcatum var. virescens, (the last three all close by Thornton Force), 77ichostomune
miutabile, Breutelia arcuata, Heterocladium heteroplerum, Eurhynchium Teesdale,
and £. pumzlum in fruit. Helk’s Wood is interesting ground, where may be
found Wetsta microstoma var. obligua, Thuidium recognitum, Brachytheciun
glareosum in fruit, Hypnum incurvatum in abundant fruit, and Hypnum palustre
var. subsphaertcarpon. Bryologists who have time should not omit Ingleboro’, on
‘the slopes of which are the following rare mosses :—Polytrichum alpinum, P.
strictum, Dicranum fuscescens var. falcifolium, LBarbula recurvifolia, Tortula
aloides, Dicranodontium longirostre var. alpinum, Zygodon gracilis, Rhacomitrium
sudeticum, CEdipodium Griffithianum, Mnium orthorrhynchum, Eucalypta com-
Mutata, E. ciliata, FE. rhabdocarpa, Myurella julacea, and Psezzdoleskea catenulata.
Fungi.—The Yorkshire Mycological Committee will be officially represented
by its Secretary, Mr. C. Crossland, F.L.S., who writes :—There are very few
wecords of Fungi for this district. The date of the excursion is suitable for Spring
Pezize and Helvelle. Careful investigation of likely places will almost certainly
result in the finding of members of one or other of these groups. The time is too
«arly for Agarics, etc.
VERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY.—The Vertebrate Section will be officially
represented by Mr. Alfred White, F.Z.S., and Mr. Riley Rortune, F.Z.S.
Birds.—Mr. H. B. Booth, M.B.O.U., writes:—The Warblers are well
represented here, and should be in full song at the time of the Y.N.U. visit. The
Dipper (common), and the Grey Wagtail may be seen along the streams, For
several years a pair of Merlins nested on one of the slopes of Ingleborough—known
as ‘* The Allotments,” and just beyond the Gaping Ghyll hole—and may do so yet.
CONCHOLOGY.—The Conchological Section will be officially represented
by its President, Mr. W. Denison Roebuck, F.L.S.
ENTOMOLOGY.—The Entomological Section will be officially represented.
Lepidoptera.—Mr. J. W. Carter, F.E.S., writes :—Besides a few common
species, Coremta munitata is the only one of interest which we have on record for
the district,
Coleoptera.—The Yorkshire Coleoptera Committee will be officially repre-
sented by Mr. J. W. Carter, F.E.5., and Mr. H. Ostheide.
Mr. Carter writes :—The district around Ingleton has not been systematically
worked, the few species recorded having been obtained on flying visits. The rare
species noted are Carvabus a ‘vensis, Ubst. ; Nebria gyllenhali, Sch., and its variety
rufescens, Stroem, quite recently added to the British list; Pterostichus ethiops, Pz. ;
Calathus melanocephalus, var. wubigena, Hal.; Patrobus assimilts, Chaud; :
Byrrhus fasciatus, ¥.; Lathrobium multipunctum, Gr.; and Philonthus addendus,
Shp. The date of the meeting is a good time for investigating the coleopterous
fauna of the district, and the sides and top of Ingleboro’ will doubtless furnish
some good species, especially of ground beetles—Geodephaga. Carabus glabratus
may possibly turn up.
Mr. M. L. Thompson writes :—Dr. G. W. Chaster, when on a visit to
Ingleton, met with the following beetles of interest—/schnoglossa prolixa, Sipalia
rufecollis, Othius myrmecophilus, Homalium vile, Bythinus securiger, B. burrelli,
B..validus, Scydmenus collaris, Cryptophagus setulosus, Otiorrhynchus rugifrons,
Mnicophila muscorum, Haltica herbigrada var. levicollis, H. palustris, Choleva
wilkint, Scaphisoma agaricinum, Apion lott, A. seniculum, and Cts festivus.
Mr. E. G. Bayford writes:—The Ingleton district promises well for the
Coleopterist. Carabus glabratus Payk. was first taken here by Professor Hooker.
Dr. Chaster has found a number of rare and uncommon species. I have also met
with the var. eriugénosus F. of Corymbttes cupreus F.

Mr. J. W. Stather, F.G.S., writes:—It is impossible to do justice to the
Geology of Flamborough District within the limits of this circular. The following
brief notes may, however, be of use :—
Glacial Beds.—Glacial deposits are in evidence almost everywhere on
Flamborough Head, but the best sections are to be found on the south side near
Bridlington, and in Filey Bay on the north side.
Speeton Estuarine Shell Bed.—At the base of the Glacial deposits on
Middle Cliff Ridge at Speeton, an estuarine shell bed of muddy sand deserves
examination. It has also recently been traced along the shore towards Reighton
Gap, aud seems to be of the same age as the buried-cliff beds of Sewerby.
The Sewerby Buried Cliff.—One of the most interesting sections of the
whole coast-line occurs at the commencement of the Chalk, on the south side of the
headland, and though obscured by slipped material, it has been better exposed
during the early spring of this year than for many years past. It consists of an
ancient cliff of chalk buried under glacial beds. From the deposits backed up
against the old cliff, a large quantity of the fragmentary remains of mammals, fish,
and birds have been obtained from time to time, and only a few weeks ago a fine
elephant’s tusk was obtained from the same locality.
Upper Cretaceous Beds.—With regard to the Chalk, the recent work done by
Dr. A. W. Rowe and Mr. C. D. Sherborn has gone far towards working out the
zonal sub-divisions (Proc. Geol. Assn., 1904), but much remains to be done by local
observers. The authors identified the following zones in the cliffs on the south
side of the headland. (a) Actinocamax quadratus. (6) Marsupites testudinarius.
(c) Micraster cor-anguinum. The fossil sponges, for which the chalk of Flamborough
Head is celebrated, will be found most plentifully between Sewerby and Danes’
Dyke, and the bed of JZarszpzzes in the cliff, two or three hundred yards west of
Danes’ Dyke. No flint occurs in the chalk cliffs on the south side of the headland,
but nodules begin to appear at High Stacks, a little south of the Lighthouse.
From Selwicks Bay to the high cliffs of Buckton, the sections are made up entirely
of flinty chalk (zones of Jicraster cor-testudinarium, Holaster planus, Terebratulina
gracilis, and Rhynchonella cuvieri, according to Dr. Rowe). Under Buckton,
the softer flintless lower chalk rises into the base of the cliff. The details of this
portion of the Cretaceous series have been carefully worked out by Mr. W. Hill.
Lower Cretaceous Beds.—The Speeton clays come out from under the
chalk escarpment at Speeton, and form for about a mile a low broken undercliff.
Under favourable conditions, it is possible to trace a definite succession of zones,
each containing fossils proper to it and not found elsewhere. More recently,
Mr. C. G. Danford, of Reighton, has added considerably to our knowledge of this
wonderful section. . os
The Coast Erosion Committee will hold a meeting with the Geological Section -
to consider their report. There is urgent matter now for consideration, since the
Government is appointing a Royal Commission to take evidence and report.
A meeting of the Boulder Committee will be held.
BOTANY.—The Botanical Section will be officially represented by its
Secretary (Mr. J. F. Robinson),
Flowering Plants.—Mr. J. F. Robinson writes :—Although not noted for
anything remarkable, still the flowering plants to be found in peregrinations round
the top of the Flambro’ Cliffs, into the depressions leading to the ‘* wicks,” or over
the upland interior parts towards Bempton and Buckton are numerous and not un-
interesting. One has not heard that any new records have. been made since the
publication in 1902 of the writer’s ‘‘ Flora of the East Riding of Yorkshire,” from
which the following extracts are made: In wet, clayey places on the headland, as
near the lighthouse, Ranznculus hederaceus grows with the Grass of Parnassus and
Pinguicula, the first, however, being the only species in flower at this season.
Ranunculus auricomus grows near Danes Dyke, where.also there is a record for
Agquilegia vulgaris which should be verified if possible. Cochlearia officinalis
abundantly and probably also C. danica grow on the chalk cliffs, and should be
studied for their varieties. Szsymébrium Sophia (colonist or alien), has been
gathered near Flamboro’ Lighthouse, where also grows Cerastinm tebandrum, on
the top of walls and cliffs. C. semidecandrum, with the little Whitlow Grass
(Evophita), and Saxifraga tridactylites are frequent in chalky, gravelly places.
Geranium sanguineum, Vicia sylvatica, Rosa pimpinellifolia—the last only in
flower—are found near Speeton beck and towards Filey. Axthriscus vulgaris—a
sand-preferring plant—is common near Flambro’ Church. Lacituca muralis, a
calcophile, is common in copses and beech woods. Carlina vulgaris and Cnicus
ertophorus, two interesting thistles, are frequent. Dwarf forms of Centaurium.
doubtfully C. pulchella, may be obtained. Lamium amplexicaule in cultivated
ground is not uncommon, whilst its sister species, the red deadnettle (Z. purpuveum),
is one of the dominant plants on the headland. The Carices, C. verna and
C. distans, and probably others less common, may be gathered; but the native
grasses, save Ayrostis palustris, are not noteworthy. A little out of the district,
namely, in the Boynton woods, Clematis vitalba and Afonotropa Hypopitys, are still
found; whilst on the ‘sea-facing cliffs, Crambe maritima (sea kale), a former
recerd, but now doubtfully present, should be eagerly looked for. Any special
‘finds’ would be welcomed.
Mosses and Hepatics.—The Yorkshire Bryological Committee will be
officially represented by Mr. W. Ingham, B.A., and Mr. J. J. Marshall.
Mr. Ingham writes :—The best ground for these plants is Danes Dyke. On
loose blocks of limestone on the side of the dyke grow the minute and rare Seligeria
paucifolia and S. calcarea, known elsewhere in Yorkshire only at Goodmanham,
near Market Weighton. Other mosses of the dyke are Grimmia pulvinata,
fissidens adiantoides var. collinus (on a grassy slope, the only known Yorkshire
habitat for the variety), Zortula murals (with hair points as long as leaves),
T. intermedia, Barbula unguiculata, Tvichostomum crispulum, Zygodon viridissimus,
Ulota phyllantha, Orthotrichum pulchellum (the last three associated on a fallen
tree), /sothectum myurum, Brachythectum velutinum, Webera albicans, Cryphaa
heteromalia (found by Mr. Slater in June, 1894, and not recorded since; should be
looked for on trees), Eurhynchium prelongum, E. Swartsiit, E. murale, £.
confertum, Plagiothectum sylvaticum, Amblystegium serpens var. minus, A. Juratz-
kanum, A. filicinum. The Hepatics noted at the same time as the above (Aug.,
1899) are Conocephalus conicus, Radula complanata, Frullania dilatata, Plagiochila
asplenioides, Lophocolea bidentata. I believe springtime will be even better than
the autumn for these plants, both in the dyke and on the sea-clifts.
Mr. Marshall writes :—The rare Seligerias, pauctfolia and calcarea should be
in good condition on the face of the chalk outcrops in Dames Dyke. Another rare
moss (Orthotrichum pulchellum) will probably be noted, but too early for fruit.
Other Orthotrichums, affine and diaphanum, occur on the trees with Zygodon
viridissemus and the hepatics Frullania dilatata and Radula complanata. An
extremely interesting moss (C7yphea heteromalla) is recorded from Danes Dyke on
the trunk of a tree, but there is reason to suppose the timber has been felled and
the habitat destroyed. Another moss (Détrichum homomallum) is recorded as the
only station in East Yorkshire by the Rev. R. Fisher, late of Sewerby.
Algz.—Mr. J. F. Robinson writes :—Neither the fresh water Alge, which of
course cannot be very numerous in this dry upland locality, nor yet the marine
species, have been systematically investigated, although a large number of the
latter have been gathered by the writer. If the ebb tide be followed the Lamimarian
zone may be reached and many interesting species of the three great classes of sea-
weeds—green, brown, and red—may be met with. In the shore and cave pools
Chylocadia articulata, Delesseria sanguinea, D. alata, and D. sinuosa, Plocamtum
coccineum, Laurencia pinnatifida, Ptilota sericea or plumiosa, with many more, say
in Silex Bay or near North Landing at low water, will well reward the Algologist.
The writer intends spending most of his time in this direction, and will be glad of
companions in his search.
Fungi.—The Yorkshire Mycological Committee will be officially represented
by its Secretary. Mr. C. Crossland, F.L.S.
Mr. Crossland writes :—Few Fungi appear to be on record for this immediate
district. The nearest place which has received any attention in this part of York-
shire is Boynton, 24 miles west of Bridlington (see ‘‘ The Naturalist,” June and
July, 1889). Careful search in suitable places will almost certainly be rewarded by
additions to the Fungus Flora of S.E. Yorkshire.
VERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY.—The Vertebrate Section will be officially
represented by its Secretaries—Mr. Alfred White, F.Z.S., and Mr. Riley Fortune, F.Z.S.
Mammalia.—Mr. Riley Fortune writes:—I have seen Fox, Rabbit, Hare,
lield Mouse, Field Vole, Pipistrelle and Noctule Bats. Information upon the
Bats especially would be very welcome.
Birds.—F lamborough is one of the most noted places in the British Isles for
the occurrence of rare birds. Most species upon the British List are met with here
during migration time. To give a list of ‘‘ rarities’? obtained would be of little
service, as during the visit of the Union the migration period will be over, and only
the usual resident species will be in evidence. The cliff birds will naturally claim:
most attention. At Flamborough proper only a small number are to be seen, but
at the Bempton, Buckden, and Speeton Clifts, to the north of Flamborough Head,
immense numbers of birds will be nesting; and as the season will be at its height
during the Union’s visit, it will repay anyone to visit this neighbourhood for the
purpose of seeing the birds and watching the ‘‘climmers” taking the eggs. Gulli-
mots outnumber the other species to a great extent. Puffins and Razorbills are
also abundant. Here also is the only Yorkshire colony of the beautiful Kittiwake.
Other birds nesting in the cliffs are Rock Doves, Stock Doves, Jackdaws, Starlings,
Tree Sparrows, House Martins, Sand Martins, and an odd pair or two of Carrion
Crows. Herring Gulls will be noticed about the cliffs on the lock out for
unprotected eggs. Inland many usual species are to be met with; no useful
purpose will be served in enumerating them. The most characteristic bird is the
Corn Bunting, which is plentiful, and in the patches of gorse on the cliff tops
linnets are fairly common.
Reptiles and Amphibia.—There appear to be no records. I have seen
Frog, Toad, and Lizard. Information upon the Snakes and Newts would be
interesting.
Fishes.—The species obtained here are naturally marine, and it is not expected
that much work can be done in this direction, therefore it is hardly worth while
giving a list.
CONCHOLOGY.—The Conchological Section will be officially represented
by Mr. Denison Roebuck, F.L.S.
Land and Freshwater Mollusca. (See list on circular No. 116).
ENTOMOLOGY.—The Entomoiogical Section will be officially represented
by its Secretary, Mr. W. Hewett, and Mr. G. T. Porritt, F.L.S.
Lepidoptera. (See list on circular No. 116).
Coleoptera.—-The Yorkshire Coleoptera Committee will be officially repre-
sented by its Chairman, Mr. M. L. Thompson, F.E.S., and Secretary, Mr. E. G.
Bayford.
Mr. M. L. Thompson writes :—Flamborough Head is very unproductive of
interesting beetles. Cercyon littoralis and Cafius xantholoma are to be found
among the seaweed on the shore, as I learn from the Rev. W. C. Hey. He has
also met with Rhagonycha fulva, Necrophorus ruspator, Harpalus ruficornis, and
Hi. wneus. Many years ago T. V. Wollaston took Atomaria fimetarii, A. fuscipes,
A. fuscata, and A. berolinensis at Danes Dyke.
Mr. T. Stainforth writes :—To the coleopterist Flamborough Head itself will
prove rather barren. For this district very few species have been recorded. These
include among others Prerostichus striola ¥., Geotrupes mutator Marsh, AZelo?é
violaceus Marsh, Xantholinus glabratus Grav., and Barynctus elevatus, Marsh. At
Bridlington, however, a little to the south of Flamborough Fead, so many interesting
species have been found that a list of them would be quite beyond the scope of
this circular.

WILL BE HELD AT
HARROGATE
FEWSTON and WASHBURN VALLEY,
ON
Saturday, June 30th, 1906.
RAILWAY ARRANGEMENTS.-—-Through return tickets at pleasure
party rates will be issued at all stations on the G.C., G.N., H. & B., L. & Y.,
L. & N.W., Midland, and N.E. Railways, which have booking arrangements for
Harrogate to Members and Associates of the Y.N.U., surrendering the
Certificate noted below. Tickets taken on Friday, June 29th, will be available
for return on Monday, July 2nd. Where through bookings are not in operation
Members may book to most convenient junction, and re-book to destination,
the reduced fares being available for each stage of the journey.
N.B.—The Railway Booking Clerks will only grant these reduced fares to Members
and Associates producing a Special Certificate signed by the Secretary of the Union,
Members and Associates wishing for this Certificate must apply to Mr. Sheppard for it,
and must enclose a stamped directed envelope and their current card of membership
of the Union, which latter will be returned with the Certificate. At stations on the
N.E. Rly. tickets at the reduced fares will be issued on production of the signed card
of membership.
BOOKS AND MAPS.—The whole area is included in Sheets 92 N.E. and
S.E., of the One-inch Ordnance Map, which may be obtained geologically
coloured. See also Paper and Map ‘‘Geographical Distribution of Vegetation
in Yorkshire, Part 2, Harrogate and Skipton District,” by W. G. Smith and
W. M. Rankin (Geog. Journal, August, 1903).
THE DISTRICT to be investigated is the upper portion of the Washburn
Valley, especially that portion surrounding the reservoirs of Swinsty and Fewston.
HEADQUARTERS.—Hopper Lane Hotel, Blubberhouses, via Otley.
ROUTES.—Wagonettes meet trains at Harrogate station, start from
station at 10-30 a.m., drive to Fewston via Stainburn Moors and Little Almais
Cliff; members get off at the bottom of Swinsty reservoir and work up each
side of the reservoirs to Blubberhouses.
Return fare by drags, 3/- each—about 16 miles drive there and back.
Geologists may, if they prefer it, go direct to Hopper Lane in the conveyances
and work up the Kex Gill Pass, returning by Penny Pot Lane and Birk Crag.
Members who intend being present should send word to the Local
Secretary, in order that seats in conveyances may be arranged.
PERMISSION to visit their properties has been kindly granted by the Leeds
Corporation, W. J. Galloway, Esq., and Lord Walsingham.
GEOLOGY.—The Geological Section will be officially represented by its
President, Mr. Cosmo Johns, F.G.S., and Mr. E. Hawkesworth, one of its
Secretaries.
Mr. E. Hawkesworth writes :—Compared with the two previous meetings of
this year, the district does not present any features of special interest to the
geologist. The rocks of the whole area belong to the Millstone Grit series. The
‘*shell bed” (Cayton Gill Beds), a fossiliferous marine band, between the
Follifoot and Plompton Grits, is mapped around Fewston, and geologists are
recommended to look for exposures of it, and record the fossils, also to examine
any sections of shales which intervene with the beds of grit.
BOTANY.—The Botanical Section will be officially represented.
Flowering Plants.—Mr. W. G. Smith, Ph.D., writes:—This excursion is
well adapted for the examination of the flora of woods on sandstones and shales.
Lindley Wood, which extends along one side of the Leeds reservoir, is a typical
oak wood with a varied undergrowth, which should at this season yield many
interesting plants. Several other woods occur in the valley: these are either fairly
pure oak or oak mixed with pine. The remainder of the route along the
Washburr will give opportunity for observation of plants of the stream bank,
and of old pastures. There is now no arable land in the valley, although
formerly much of the land has been ploughed.
Mr. P. Fox Lee writes :—At this period of the year the botanists may
be sure of an interesting day in the picturesque valley of the little river Washburn.
In 1883, on the occasion of the Union’s former visit to the Washburn Dale, the
discovery was made of Ceéerach offictnarum, growing on Pool Bridge, and it
CIRCULAR 105.]
would be of interest to have the record confirmed after twenty-three years. In the
early part of spring time fhere is to be seen here, about Swinsby and Lindley
reservoir, a grand profusion of the real Lent-lily or wild daffodil ( Marcissus Pseuda-
narcissus), perfectly indigenous, with its thousands of ‘‘ single” lemon-yellow
blooms. The following species occur in the valley, namely :— Ranunculus
Lenormandi, Stellaria nemorum, Genista anglica, Gnaphalium sylvaticum,
Menyanthes trifoliata, Trientalis europea, Galeopsis versicolor, Typha latifolia,
Epipactis latifolia, Orchis incarnata, Listera cordata, Carex paniculata, and thirteen
Ferns, including Lastrwa Oreopteris and spinulosa, Phegopleris polypodioides, with
‘the Ceferach, if still in evidence, and Wtella flexiilis.
Mr. W. E. L. Wattam writes that the following plants were observed at
‘Washburn Valley on July 19th, 1902 :—Votentilla anserina, Geranium pratense,
Orchis maculata, Veronica beccabunga, Vicia sepium, Scrophularia nodosa, Valertana
officinalis, Arctia lappa, Myosotis palustris, Hypericum perforatum, Circea lutetiana,
Bromus asper, Bromus sterilis, Avena flavescens, Glyceria fluitans.
Mosses and Hepatics.—The Yorkshire Bryological Committee will be
-officially represented by Mr. W. Ingham, B.A.
Mr. W. Ingham writes :—The Fewston side of the Washburn Valley requires
working for these plants. The Wharfe side has Féssédens crassipes, F. rufulus,
Amblystegium fluviatile, Eurhynchium crassinervium and Plagtothectum depressum
at Castley; Rhabdoweisia fugax, Trichostomum tenutrostre and Leptodontium
_fiexifolium at Norwood, the last also at Almias Cliff; Barbula Hornschuchiana
at Leathley, Rhacomitrium heterostichum var. gracilescens at Almias Cliff,
P depressum at Farnley (all the above recorded by G. B. Savery in ‘‘ Naturalist,”
1902). Hylocomium loreum is recorded for Washburn Valley.
Mr. L. J. Cocks recorded Dicranella Schrebert and its var. elata (Birk Crag,
Harrogate), also Schéstostega osmundacea and Orthodontium gracile at the same
crag.
The Hepatics recorded for the Washburn Valley are Lophocolea heterophylia,
Plagiochtla asplentotdes, and Aneura multifida. The above list indicates an
‘interesting moss district, and it is fortunate for the bryologists that the excursion
is fixed for the Fewston side of the valley.
AFFORESTATION.—The Leeds Corporation being owners of a great
part of the Washburn Valley, have initiated an extensive scheme of afforestation of
-such of the moor-lands as are suitable. Work has already been definitely set out
for several years, and during the past winter Swinsty Moor, about ninety acres,
has been planted with a variety of trees. About a quarter of a million trees have
been planted there, and nearly three-quarters of a million in the nurseries near.
Some account of the work will be given by Mr. S. Margerison, one of the advisors
-of the Waterworks Committee, on the subject.
Fungi.— Mr. Crossland writes:—Few Fungi appear to be on record for this
-district. At the 1885 meeting the Rev. W. Fowler noted about thirty species.
No systematic work has been done here in this branch of botany. Being unable to
attend this excursion, I shall welcome any specimens that may be forwarded to me
-and will examine and report same.
VERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY.—The Vertebrate Section will be officially
represented by Mr. Riley Fortune.
Birds.—Mr. Wm. Storey writes that Fewston is a favourite locality for
birds, and many varieties are to be found, amongst others the following nest more
or less regularly in the district :—Pied Fly Catcher, Hawfinch, Tree Sparrow,
Reed Bunting, Goldfinch, Twite, Lesser Redpoll, Great, Blue, Cole, Marsh, and
Long-tailed Tits, Lesser and Greater Spotted and Green Woodpeckers, Long-
eared, Short-eared, Barn, and Tawny Owls, Stone Chat, Kestrel, Sparrow Hawk,
Merlin, Water Rail, Coot, Great Crested and Little Grebes, Redshank, Canada.
Goose, Dunlin, and Golden Eye. During the autumn and winter months many
rare birds are seen, especially Ducks and Waders.
Mammals.— Mr. Storey records the following in the district :—Fox, Badger,
Bank Vole, Field Vole, Lesser and Water Shrews, Long-tailed Field Mouse,
Whiskered, Long-eared, Pipistrelle, Lesser Horse Shoe, Reddish Grey, and Noctule-
Pats.
Reptiles & Amphibians.—Mr. Storey writes that he has found the Adder,
Slow Worm, Common Lizard, Common Newt, Frog, and Toad.
Fishes.—Mr. Storey has found the following in the Washburn and in the
Reservoirs :—Brown Trout, Loch Leven Trout, Eel, Golden Tench (introduced by
Lord Walsingham), Gudgeon, Minnow, Loach, Lamprey, and Bullhead.
CONCHOLOGY.—The Conchological Section will be officially represented
by Mr. T. Castle, one of its secretaries.
Land and Freshwater Mollusca.—Mr. J. E. Crowther writes :—In the
‘* Naturalist” for August, 1883, the following list of species is given for the
district to be visited: Avion ater, A. hortensis, Limax agrestis, L. arborum, Zonites
excavatus, Z. cellarius, Z. nitidulus, Helix rufescens, H. rotundata, H. hortensis,
H. pulchella, Limnea peregra, Ancylus fluviatilis. The following additions
were noted on the visit of the Union on August 6th, 1883: Piéstdiume
pusillum, Limnea auricularia, Limax laevis, Cochlicopa lubrica.
ENTOMOLOGY.—The Entomological Section will be officially represented.
Lepidoptera.—Mr. W. E. L. Wattam writes that JZetrocampa margaritala
was observed at Washburn Valley, July 19th, 1902.
Coleoptera.—The Yorkshire Coleoptera Committee will be officially repre-
sented.
Mr. E. G. Bayford writes:—There are not many records of Beetles
for the district under investigation. Perhaps the most systematic work
in the order was done fifty years ago by Walton, and his researches were mainly
confined to the Rhyncophora. Apion frumentarium Z., A. rubens Steph, A. Spencit
Kirby are specially mentioned by him as having occurred at Harrogate.

THURSDAY, JULY [2th, 1906.
RAILWAY ARRANGEMENTS.--Through return tickets at pleasure
party rates will be issued at all stations on the G.C., G.N., H. & B., L. & Y.,
L. & N.W., Midland, and N.E. Railways, which have booking arrangements for
Askern or Kirk-Smeaton to Members and Associates of the Y.N.U., surrendering the
Certificate noted below. Tickets taken on Wednesday, July 11th, will be available
for return on Friday, July 13th. Where through bookings are not in operation
Members may book to most convenient junction, and re-book to destination,
the reduced fares being available for each stage of the journey.
N.B.—The Railway Booking Clerks will only grant these reduced fares to Members
and Associates producing a Special Certificate signed by the Secretary of the Union.
Members and Associates wishing for this Certificate must apply to Mr. Sheppard for it,
and must enclose a stamped directed envelope and their current card of membership

GEOLOGY.—The Geological Section will be officially represented by
its President, Mr. Cosmo Johns, F.G.S., and Messrs. H. Culpin and H. H. Corbett.
Mr. Culpin writes :—Askern is a good centre for -the examination of the
Permian Rocks, and the recent deposits of the southern extension of the Vale of
York.
The recent deposits may be seen in the low lying lands on the east side of the
district. ‘There are several clay pits showing sections of blue warp. | Peat beds are
also numerous. On Rusby Moor, half-a-mile south-east of the town, the soil
literally teems with a great variety of land and freshwater shells (Plazordis,
Limnea, Hyalina, Helix, etc., etc). These lie, conveniently for the collector,
and conspicious by their whiteness, on the dark peaty mole-hills that dot the surface.
It is, however, to the Permian series, and to some gravel pits lying on the
same that the attention of members present at the meeting will be more particularly
invited. The Permian Rocks are here divided into the Upper Magnesian Lime-
stone, on which Askern is built; the Middle Marl, which is crossed by the
charming field-path leading westward to Campsall (one mile); and the Lower
Magnesian Limestone west of Campsall. In the Hampole Gorge, three miles
south-west of Campsall, the Middle Coal Measures may be seen underlying the
Lower Magnesian Limestone.
The Upper Magnesian Limestone is, as a rule, thin bedded and flaggy.
In colour it varies from dull white to yellowish. A few miles further south, the
top beds of the Upper Magnesian Limestone are fossiliferous, and it is hoped the
same beds may be traced at this meeting.
The Middle Marl is red, with occasional mottled bands. It contains beds of
gypsum, and thin layers of fine sand-stone and lime-stone.
The Lower Limestone is thick bedded and similar in colour to the Upper
Limestone, except that some of it is more yellow and it more frequently contains
black'specks. It varies considerably in hardness. The bottom beds are fossiliferous,
and near Hampole they yield large and fine specimens of Schizodus.
One of the ‘‘problems” of the district occurs in a large gravel pit to the
south-west of the town. There are beds of sandon the denuded surface of which
reposes a great thickness of coarse Magnesian Limestone Gravel, ranging from
large sub-angular blocks to well-rounded small pebbles. At the Askern Meeting
in 1893, Professor P. F. Kendall ‘‘ expressed the opinion that the sandstone was
probably of Permian age, and that the gravels were produced by the action of
streams flowing over the Magnesian Limestone, during the Glacial period.” (Mr.
J. W. Stather’s report, the Maturalist, October, 1893).
At Burghwallis, 1{ miles south-west by west of Askern is another —— pit
of well-rounded Magnesian Limestone Pebbles.

BOTANY.—The botanical Section will be officially represented by
Mr. H. H. Corbett.
Flowering Piants.—Mr. H. H. Corbett writes:—To the phanerogamic
botanist there are few more interesting districts to be found in Yorkshire than
that around Askern (wide Lankester’s ‘‘ Askern and its Waters,” Davis & Lee’s
‘¢West Yorkshire,” and Lee’s ‘‘ Flora of the West Riding’). Among the rarer
and more interesting species to be found in flower, or in the case of the Cyperacee
in fruit, at this time of the year, may be mentioned Ranunculus trichophyllus,
R. Drouetti, R. floribundus, R. flammula, Thalictrum flavum, Nasturtium
palustre, N. amphibium, Arabis hirsuta, Cerastium semidecandrum, Malva

GUISBOROUGH,
ON THE
Week-end, August 18th to 20th, 1906.
ha AE ENN ee ee
RAILWAY ARRANGEMENTS.—Through return tickets at pleasure
party rates will be issued at all stations on the G.C.,G.N., H. & B., L. & Y.,
L. & N.W., Midland, and N.E. Railways, which have booking arrangements for
Guisborough to Members and Associates of the Y.N.U., surrendering the
Certificate noted below. Tickets taken on Friday, August 17th, will be available
for return on Tuesday, August 21st. Where through bookings are not in operation
Members may book to most convenient junction, and re-book to destination,
the reduced fares being available for each stage of the journey.
N.B.—The Railway Booking Clerks will only grant these reduced fares to Members
and Associates producing a Special Certificate signed by the Secretary of the Union.
Members and Associates wishing for this Certificate must apply to Mr. Sheppard for it.
At stations on the N.E. Rly. tickets at the reduced fares will be issued on production
of the signed card of membership.
THE DISTRICT to be investigated includes the area lying between Rose-
berry Topping, Kildale, High Cliff, and Slapewath.
BOOKS AND MAPS.—The whole area is included in Sheet 34. See P. F.
Kendall’s ‘‘ Glacier Lakes in the Cleveland Hills,” ‘‘Quarterly Journal ” Geol. Soc.,
1902, and Proc. Yorks. Geol. Soc., 1903; Phillips’ ‘‘ Geology of Yorkshire,”
J. G. Baker’s ‘‘ North Yorkshire,” T. Sheppard’s ‘‘ Geological Rambles in East
Yorkshire,” ‘‘ The Jurassic Rocks of Britain; Yorkshire,” by C. Fox Strangways,
and Tate & Blake’s ‘‘ Yorkshire Lias.”
HEADQUARTERS.—Buck Hotel, Guisborough.
ACCOMMODATION will be provided by Mrs. Pybus at the Buck Hotel,
Guisborough, in strict order of application. Outside sleeping accommodation will
be arranged for those for whom no room can be found at the hotel.
Terms: Bed, Breakfast, and Dinner, 7/- per head.
EVENING MEETINGS.—A Meeting will be held on Saturday at the Buck
Hotel at 7-0 p.m. Mr. Cosmo Johns, F.G.S., will read a paper, illustrated by
maps and diagrams, on ‘‘ Jurassic Ironstone Deposits of Great Britain.” Dr. H. C.
Sorby, F.L.S., will contribute ‘‘ Notes on the Origir of the Cleveland Ironstone,’’
and Mr. M. B. Cotsworth will read a paper on ‘‘The Continuous Glacial Period ”
ROUTES.—On Saturday morning the members will start from Guisborough
Market Place for Highcliffe and Roseberry, where they will note the terrace
formation of the hill, caused by the alternating hard and soft shales and beds of the
Lias. They will then examine the Cleveland Whin Dyke, which cuts through a
shoulder of Roseberry, and has been extensively quarried here. The return
will be by way of Hutton if time serves, or by train from Great Ayton.
On Monday the members remaining over the week-end will arrange the routes
to be traversed, but it is hoped that some of the sections will cross the moor to
Kildale Woods which were such a happy hunting ground to the late Rev. John
Hawell.
Members who cannot reach Guisborough before 10-9 a.m. on Saturday should
alight at Hutton Junction, where Mr. T. A. Lofthouse will meet them and conduct
them to the earlier party.
Ironstone Mine.—By the kindness of the owners the members of the
Union have permission to visit the Spawood Ironstone Mine on Monday, the 2oth.
The manager, Wm. Charlton, Esq., will conduct visitors over the workings. Any-
one desiring to avail themselves of the privilege should advise the Divisional Hon.
Sec. by letter, so that he may make the necessary arrangements.
PERMISSION to visit their properties has been kindly granted by Miss
Staveley and Captain R. B. Turton.
GEOLOGY.—The Geological Section will be officially represented by
Mr. Cosmo Johns, F.G.S., its President.
Dr. W. Y. Veitch writes :—Middle Oolite (Kellaways Rock) is exposed on the
Guisborough Moor, near Gerrick, a little over three miles S.E. of that town. With
the exception of Hob Hill near Saltburn, which rises no higher than the Upper
Lias, all the surrounding hills are capped with Lower Oolite, below which is the
Dogger. Guisborough itself is built upon the Middle Lias, and is the centre of a
large ironstone mining industry. Formerly its chief source of revenue was from the
manufacture of alum, from alum shale (4. communis zone), and occasionally from
jet rock (A. serpentinus zone). The ironstone is obtained from the sfzmatus zone
of the Middle Lias. At Eston the beds measure 24-feet, with ironstone 15-feet
2-inches in thickness. From this point the ironstone becomes inferior in quality,
the seam becomes split up with interlying bands of shale. At Ayton there is
exposed the most interesting feature ot the district, that is the Cleveland Whin
Dyke. Here it is 80-feet thick at the base of the hill (Roseberry Topping), whilst
at the surface exposure at a height of 350-feet it is only 20-feet thick. The dyke is
first noticed at Sneaton High Moor and extends in a fairly straight direction to
Coatham Beck near Stockton, crossing the Tees at Eaglescliffe. It is an augite
andesite (see Teall’s British Petrography). Roseberry Topping is typical of the
neighbouring hills, excepting for the absence of the Dogger. Both it and Hob Hill
are out-lyers. Roseberry is 1,057-feet high, and Captain Cook’s Monument, Easby
Moor, 1,064- feet. The top of Roseberry is a mass of Oolite, followed by zones
of A. communis, serpentinus, annulatus, spinatus, margaritatus, capricornus, and
jamesoni, upon which the village of Newton rests.
Glacial Phenomena.—This has been fully dealt with with by Professor
Kendall.
Mr. Frank Elgee writes :—At Bold Venture, at 800 feet, occur gravel mounds
with Cheviot Porphyrites, indicating a glacier lake overflow down Sleddale.
Erratics are even found on Newton Moor at a height of 1,000 feet. When the ice
began to retreat a small lake was held up in High Bonsdale, the overflow falling
westward at 675 feet. As the ice melted backward a great overflow out of the
Boosbeck Valley into the Guisborough valley was initiated, forming the Slapwath
Gorge (600-425). The whole of the Vale of Guisborough is covered with drift
which must be of great thickness. As the ice melted from the Guisborough Valley
the melting front initiated two channels. The westerly one is near Narmanby
Intake Plantation, and perhaps leads from the head of Moordale. Its intake level
is 625 feet, but it cuts through the 650 feet contour. The second is the grand
gorge of Scugdale Slack, certainly as fine a piece of glacial erosion as can be found
in Cleveland. It contains little or no stream, and the intake level is 523 feet,
cutting clean through the hill where it is about 50 feet deep. It rapidly becomes
deeper and steeper until where it emerges into the Guisborough Valley it is about
200 feet deep. From its outflow a wide flat-floored trench zz the drift can be seen
sweeping down the valley to the westward between Grove Hill and Windy Hill. I
have traced it as far as Lowcross House. It is about 25 feet deep near the
Chaloner Pit Railway.
BOTANY.—The Botanical Section will be officially represented.
Flowering Piants.—Mr. J. G. Baker, F.R.S., F.L.S., writes :—The district
is not rich in rare phanerogamia, the hills are not high enough to produce many
boreal species. There is no limestone, and the sandstone of the hill-top, and the
shales, and ironstone of the hill-slopes, do not favour the growth of the southern
types. Newton Wood, on the outer flank of Roseberry Topping, is the original
Station for Rosa hibernica var. glabra Baker, which is regarded by Crepin as a
natural hybrid between &. spinosissima and R. canina. Trientalis europea, was
gathered by Ray on Freeburgh Hill, 250 years ago, and is not uncommon in Raysdale.
The best walk is along the slope of the Hill under Highcliffe, and through the
Iiutton Locras Plantations to Roseberry Topping, dropping down to Ayton
Station, and returning to Guisborough by way of Newton. Along these hill-slopes
grows Geranium sylvaticum, Rubus selmeri, R. newbouldii, Hieracitum tridentatum,
Juniperus communis and Cephalanthera ensifolia. A branch of Sledale grows
Hypericum elodes, Myriophyllum verticillatum, Scirpus pauctflorus and Carex
teretiuscula, Narcissus incomparadilis is naturalised ina field near Guisborough
eCiRCULAR 108.]
Spa, and in the valley of the stream that rises near Guisborough, and runs past
Upleatham to Saltburn, may be found fosa spinosissima, R. sabint and Tris
_foetidissima, remarkable for its bright red seeds.
Mr. John Farrah, F.L.S.,writes:—I should like to draw the attention of all lovers
-of nature to the magnificent horse-chestnut (Aesculus Hippocastanum), that grows in
the Priory grounds. It is a remarkable specimen, owing to the fact that it has the
habit of the banyan tree. The branches from the original trunk have been trained,
I presume, to reach the ground, then they have been pegged down and have taken
root at the nodes, and sent up another trunk ; this process is repeated three times.
Lovers of trees will have a treat in admiring and examining this unique object of
beauty, also in walking under the shade of the magnificent avenue of limes in the
same grounds. This part of Cleveland is specially adapted to the development of
grand trees. At Stokesley and in its immediate vicinity there are magnificent
‘specimens of the oak, ash, elm, willow, and alder. By all means every one who
attends this rg8th meeting should go to the top of Roseberry Topping. Words are
inadequate to express the feelings and thoughts that are inspired by the view from
this point of vantage.
Mosses and Hepatics.—The Yorkshire Bryological Committee will be
officially represented by Mr. M. B. Slater, F.L.S.
Mosses.—Mr. J.G. Baker, F.R.S.,F.L.S.,writes:—The neighbourhood has been
well worked for Mosses by Mr. Richard Barnes, formerly of Saltburn, now of Harro-
gate, and by the late Mr. William Mudd. The following are the principal varieties
found on Guisborough Moor, Roseberry Topping, and the Highcliffe Woods, viz. :—
Andreea petrophila, Georgia pelluceda, Tetrodontium Brownianum, Pogonatum
alpinum, Pleuridium axtllare, Dutrichum homomallum, Dicranella crispa,
D. secunda, Anzsothectum rufescens, A. squarrosum, Brachydontium trichodes,
Campylopus fragilis, Dicranum scottiz, D. fuscescens, Tortula angustata, Barbula
lurida, Glyphomitrium saxicolum, Pleurozygodon estivus, Orthotrichum Lyelli, O.
tenellum, O. rivulare, Lartramia ihyphylla, Amblystegium stramineum, Hypnum
vivulare, H. trichotdes, Plagzothectum latebricolum, Sphagnum paptllosum, S.
squarrosam, S. recurvam, S. rufescens, S. Girgensohnii, S. quinquefarium, S.
_fimbriatum.
Mr. M. B. Slater writes :—It is not a very good time of the year for collecting
mosses except upon boggy, hilly ground.
Hepaticee.—Mr. J. G. Baker, F.R.S., F.L.S., writes :—The rare Hepatice of
the neighbourhood are /ungermannia obovata, from Guisborough Moor,
_fungermannia Tamarisct, J. spherocarpa, J. gracilis, and Nardia Genthiana, from
Highcliffe, and Cephalozta lunulefolia, and Jungermannia turbinata, from
Guisborough Beck.
Lichens.—Mr. J. G. Baker, F.R.S., F.L.S., writes :—The district has been
well worked for Lichens by the late Mr. William Mudd, author of a ‘‘ Manual of
British Lichens,” who lived at Great Ayton before he became Curator of the
Cambridge Botanic Gardens. The principal varieties are, on Highclifle, Ramalina
polymorpha, Gyrophora polyphylla, Cetraria sepincora, Lectdea goniophila, and
Arthonia trachyliotdes ; on Guisborough Moor, Solorina limbata, Lecanora epibryon,
Raphiospora arenicola, and Lectdea tridescens ; on Roseberry Topping, Ramalina
polymorpha, Callopisma flavo irrescens, Lecanora badia, Bialarelli polymelena,
and Lectdea expansa; and in Newton Wood, Shgmaitidium Hutchinsie, Callopisma
chlorinum, Lectdea vitellinaria, Opegrapha saxatilis, O. Chevallieri, O. rupestris, O.
_pulverulenta, Arthonia impolita, A. vinosa, Calicium semoneum, and C.
chlorellum.
Fungi.—The Yorkshire Mycological Committee will be officially represented
-by Mr. C. Grossland, F.L.S.
Mr. Crossland writes :—There are no records of fungi for this neighbourhood,
so that it will be practica‘ly new ground to this section. Members who attend the
meeting will confer a favour on the writer if they will pick up such portable fungi
-as they meet with and pass them on to him.
VERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY.—The Vertebrate Section will be officially
-represented by the President, Mr. T. H. Nelson, M.B.O.U.
Birds.—Mr. C. E. Milburn writes :—I am afraid I cannot mention any very
scarce species as being breeders in the Guisborough district. However, the follow-
“ing species may be met with which are not usually abundant :—Stonechat, Ring
‘Ousel, Wood Wren, Grasshopper Warbler, Hawfinch, Jay, Magpie, Carrion Crow,
Nightjar, Green Woodpecker, Great Spotted Woodpecker, Kingfisher, Cuckoo,
Long-eared Owl, Barn Owl, Tawny Owl, Kestrel, Sparrow Hawk, Woodcock, and
Sandpiper. The above are all breeders in the district to my knowledge.
CONCHOLOGY.—The Conchological Section will be officially represented.
Mr. Baker Hudson writes :—The following species are more or less common
“throughout the district mentioned, though some are more local than others :—
Limax maximus, L. flavus, L. marginatus, Agriolimax agrestis, A. laevis (in damp-
woods), Avion ater, A. subfuscus, and A. fasciatus. Vutrina pellucida, Zonites
cellarius, Z. glaber, Z. alliarius, Z. nitidulus, Z. radiatulus, Z. purus,
and var. crystallinus, Z. fulvus and Z. nitidus (near Kildale). Helix rotundaia,
H. lamellata (abundant, Kildale, with . pygmea and Pupa anglica). H. pygmea,
H. aculeata (Airey Holme, Kilton, and Kildale). A. cantiama (on or near
railway banks near Kildale, and Cross Keys public house, on the turnpike between
Guisborough and Middlesborough. This species is probably alien). A. fusca
(Tocketts and Kildale), A. granulata (Kilton), 4. hispida, H. arbustorum
(I believe confined to wooded parts not approaching the sea except in Saltburn
glen), H. nxemoralis, H. hortensis (very local: Skelton Valley, Tocketts, Ingleby
Greenhow), A. aspersa, Buliminus obscurus (Ayton, Kildale, Kilton), Pupa
umbtilicata, P. anglica (Kildale, abundant), Vertigo edentula (Airey Holme, Kildale,
Tocketts, Waterfall Wood, Guisborough), V. swdstriata (Tocketts, Waterfall Wood,
Guisborough), V. pzsilla (Skelton Ellers), V. pygmea (Ingleby Greenhow,
Skelton Ellers), Balea perversa (Kildale), Claustlia Jlaminata, C. rugosa,
Zua, zeca (Kildale, Kilton, Tocketts), Szccznea putits, S. elegans (Ingleby

(Guisborough), A. amnatina (Rivers Tame and Leven), Sphaerium corneum,
S. lacustre (Guisborough), Péstdium amnicum, P. fontinale and P. pusillum occur
very generally in streams running from Roseberry and Slapewath districts.
The following require confirmation :—Lima.x cinerco-niger (Tocketts), H. arbustorum
(north of Upleatham and Eston Hills). Speaking generally, I have found the
largest number of species as well as of individuals on the outcrops of the strata
along the sides of the wooded hills.
Mr. W. Denison Roebuck, F.L.S., adds :—Speaking generally the
immediate neighbourhood of Guisborough is one of the least worked
districts of Yorkshire, very little attention having been paid to it by
conchologists. But it offers a promising field for investigation, insomuch as on a
Y.N.U. visit to Kildale such species turned up as Hel¢x lamellata, Pupa ringens
(anglica), Limax cinereo-niger, etc., and a careful detailed and systematic search
cannot but yield good results, weather being favourable.
ENTOMOLOGY.—The Entomological Section will be officially represented
by Mr. T. A. Lofthouse.
Lepidoptera.—Mr. Lofthouse writes :—
The Guisborough meeting has possibilities for entomologists, seeing that old
records are given in the Yorkshire List (Porritt), for such species as D. dzcuspis
(several), A. alnz, G. rubricollis, all very desirable specimens for a northern
entomologist. The district is a varied one, and one that should be well worth
vigorous working. There are extensive and varied woods, and a large expanse of |
fine moorland. The locality has not been worked much by Cleveland entomologists
for many years. The following, among other species, have been taken at Guisborough
or in the immediate neighbourhood in odd visits that have been made during the
past few years:—.5S. ligustri, A. mendica, B. 2ubt and callune, S. pavontia,
N. chaonta, dromedarius, ziczac, camelina and dictewoides, A. agathina,
A. herbida, A. nebulosa, C. xerampelina, V. cambrica, O. filigrammaria, Eup.
pygmedta, etc.
Coleoptera.—The Yorkshire Coleoptera Committee will be officially repre-
sented by Mr. M. L. Thompson, F.E.S.
Mr. M. L. Thompson writes :—Many interesting beetles are to be found on
the Moorland in the vicinity of Guisborough, among them being Carabus arvensis,
Miscodera arctica, Bradycellus cognatus, Pterostichus vitreus, Bembidium nigricorne,
Trechus rubens, Hydropaerus melanarius, H. morio, H. tristis, H. obscurus, Rhantus
bistriatus, Tachinus laticollis, Philonthus scutatus, Staphylinus erythropterus,
Geodromicus nigrita, Hydnobius punctatus, Coccinella hieroglyphica, Podabrus
alpinus, Haltica ericeti, Salpingus ater, Ceuthorrhynchus erica, Myelophilus

the Huddersfield and Almondbury tramway is within 23 miles distant. The
accommodation at the Inn and in the village being very limited, it is probable
that some of those who attend the foray will have to seek slesping accommo-
dation in Huddersfield. Applications for accommodaticn at Farnley Tyas must
be made to Mr. Crossland.
ROUTES.—There will be a short foray on the Saturday afternoon in the
immediate neighbourhood. Each day’s investigations will be selected according
to circumstances. The excursions will set out each morning about 10 o’clock.
Members of Local Natural History Societies are particularly requested to
bring or send specimens from their several localities in order to make the exhibition
typical of the Fungus Flora of the Huddersfield and adjoining districts.
Consignments of fungi from any part of Yorkshire will be welcome, and will
receive every attention; a list of the species sent will be returned if desired. The
specimens should be carefully packed with grass or moss (not paper) in suitable
boxes and addressed to the Secretary, Mycological Committee, the Golden
Cock Inn, Farnley Tyas, near Huddersfield.
Arrangements will be made for the exhibition of the specimens gathered, or
sent, each day. They will be laid on tables and labelled in the order in which they
appear in the Yorkshire Fungus Flora. A large well lighted room has been
secured for this purpose. All necessary books and microscopes will be available.
Stereoscopic and other photographs, and coloured drawings of fungi will be on
exhibit.
On Monday evening, Mr. Massee will give an address on ‘‘ Modern
Mycologists.”
On Tuesday evening, Mr. Harold Wager, F.R.S., will speak on ‘‘ Recent
Researches on Reproduction in the Fungi.”
The usual business meeting of the Mycological Committee will be held on the
Wednesday evening.

THE MUSUEM.
The Museum of the Yorkshire Philosophical Society contains one of the
best collections of Roman remains in the kingdom. These are for the most
part housed in the hospitium, a separate building in the grounds, which was
originally the old guest house of St. Mary’s Abbey. In the main building there
is an excellent geological collection containing not only a first-rate series of
Yorkshire fossils, but also many type specimens in the general collection.
There is also a good collection of British Birds, including many rarities
obtained in the county, together with two specimens of the now extinct Great
Auk. The Allis collection of Lepidoptera is very complete, and contains some
species now extinct in this county. The Hey collection of British Coleoptera
is also very good. In the Grabham collection of British Mammals is a very
fine series of varieties of the Mole. There is an excellent osteological collec-
tion, and many most valuable remains of prehistoric man, consisting of flints,
bronzes, iron, cinerary urns, etc., many of them having been dug out from the
graves of these ancient people scattered throughout the county. A good
series of Danish remains is also exhibited, many of these having been dug up
in York. Asmall, but good collection of old China and glass is in the Society’s
possession, but owing to want of space at present only a small portion can be
exhibited. There is also an interesting Ethnological series.
_ Trains leave York for Leeds, 6-15, 7-0, 9-8, 9-35, II-I0.

{{ood’s Bay District,” by P. I. Kendall, in the Naturalist for the current month.
yooh THE DISTRICT to be investigated includes the Coast and the high moor-
jand, ground in the neighbourhood of Robin Hood’s Bay.
THE HEADQUARTERS will be at the Grosvenor Private Hotel, near
Robin Hood’s Bay Station,
EVENING MEETINGS.—The Geological Section will meet on Saturday
evening, when a discussion will be introduced by Professor Kendall on ‘‘ Persistent
Faulting.” On Monday Evening, Mr. Frank Elgee will read a paper on ‘‘ Glacial
Survivors.” It is also hoped that papers or discussions on subjects connected with
the other sections will be provided. ;
ROUTES.—(GSaturday, Monday and Tuesday.) These will be arranged to
suit the weather, tide, and other conditions. Professor Kendall will lead the
geologists over some of the ground which has become famous as the result of his
investigations in glacial phenomena. J. W. Barry, Esq., has offered to provide
some competent local man to conduct any ofthe parties to the likeliest spots over
his estate where their particular investigations may be pursued.
PERMISSION to visit their properties has been kindly granted by J. W.
Barry, Esq., of Fyling Hall, Sir C. W. Strickland, and W. Farside, Esq.
GEOLOGY.—The Geological Section will be officially represented by its
President, Mr. Cosmo Johns, F.G.S., and the Glacial Sub-section by Mr. E.
Hawkesworth.
Professor P. F. Kendall, M.Sc., F.G.S., writes:—The members of the
Geological Section will have an opportunity of studying a series of rocks unsur-
passed in Britain for the completeness of their development and the excellence of
the exposures, both on the coast and inland. The physical features are of equal
interest to the stratigraphy, and the palzontology to both. But the geological fare
is even more generous still, and students of geological tectonics and of glacial
geology will find evtvees as subtly compounded as the most fastidious palate could
demand. The piece de resistance is, of course, the Jurassic series, and with Spring
Tides (the moon is new on Whit Sunday) the magnificent exposures on the scars.
and in the cliffs will be easy of access.
__ The whole Liassic succession can be made out in the Bay with the sole excep-
“tion of the lowest Zone, that of Ammonites (Psiloceras) planorbis, and of that
evidence is occasionally obtainable in blocks thrown up from submerged reefs. At
Blea Wyke can be seen the only certain occurrence in Yorkshire of the Zone of
_Lytoceras jurense and of the overlying Blea Wyke Beds which form a complete
passage from the Lias into the Inferior Oolite. These are succeeded by the rose
important development of the Dogger to be found in the country, and that is
- followed by the great Estarine Series with its occasional marine beds. ;
All these Jurassic beds are well furnished with the fossils characteristic of their
.age,and of the conditions under which they were deposited.
The Peak Fault seems to belong to a system of dislocation completely
-surrounding the folded, but not faulted, mass of the Cleveland Hills in much the
-same way that the Craven and related faults surround the unfaulted mass of
“Carboniferous rocks of the Yorkshire Dales. Itjbelongs to the same series as the
Speeton Fault and the dislocation that runs across the peninsula of Scarborough
- Castle and has long been a subject of speculation among geologists; within the last
two or three years Mr. Rastall and Mr. Herries have both written on the subject
* The feature to which most attention has been directed is the effect of the fault upon
-the contrasted development of the Upper Lias and Lower Oolites upon opposite
-sides_of the fault.
The coast sections of the glacial deposits are, or at least were last autumn, in
_a very favourable condition for observation. One noteworthy feature then visible
was a basement layer of coarse rubble consisting of local rocks, chiefly Jurassic
Sandstone with a few fragments of Lias. In this deposit no foreign boulders have
-as yet been detected.
BOTANY.—The Botanical Section will be officiall
President, Dr. W. G. Smith. y represented by its
Dr. Smith writes :—IJ suggest careful examination of the Undercliff Wood and
coast south of Ravenscar, and a comparison of the vegetation on the boulder cla
with that on the rocky cliffs near the Peak. Inland the woods are now in ee
-condition-with regard to flowering plants of the undergrowth.
Mr. Elgee writes that the glacial slacks contain a profuse growth of sweet gale.
Fungi.— The Yorkshire Mycological Committee will be officiall :
“by the President of the Union, Mr. C. Crossland, F.L.S. y represented
Mr. Crossland writes :—‘‘ There are few records of fungi for the immediate
-neighbourhood of Robin Hood’s Bay. None are mentioned in the reports of the
1888 and 1889 excursions in that district. At the Whitby and Arncliffe fungus
-foray in 1894 a few hours’ visit was paid to the bay, when several uncommon
-species were collected, including Zvricholoma frumentacea, the only Yorkshire
-record. At this time of the year, however, we cannot expect many of this class of
-plant, although a few spring species may be met with.”
VERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY.—The Vertebrate Section will be officially {
-represented by Mr. Alfred White, F.L.S.
J. W. Barry, Esq., of Fyling Hall, in giving permission to visit his estate, says
‘the polecat is still to be found there, and he offers to suggest routes and give some
information on the changes in bird and animal life which have taken place since he
~was a boy.
CONCHOLOGY.—The Conchological Section will be represented by Rey.
F. H. Woods (Monday), who writes :—‘‘ A few common shells like the cowry are~
found in the drift material on the shore, and it should be fairly rich in minute shells,
such as the Vornatint and Rissoas.
ENTOMOLOGY.—The Entomological Section will be officially represented’
by its President, Mr. Wm. Hewett.
Lepidoptera.— Mr. G. T. Porritt, F.L.S., F.E.S., writes :—‘‘ Robin Hood’s..
Bay is interesting to the lepidopterist as being the only place in the county where
Plusia moneta has yet been observed. This pretty species was first noticed in
Britain so recently as 1890, when a single specimen was captured at Dover. Since-
then it has spread with unusual rapidity over the country, reaching Yorkshire in
Igor, when a specimen was captured in the hotel garden at Robin Hood’s Bay. Its
larva should be feeding, young at the time of the excursion, on Monkshood
(Aconitum), or Larkspur / Delphinium), and it would be specially noteworthy to-
ascertain that it has gained a firm footing in the locality. Other local larvee which
should be feeding at the time, are Plusia interrogationis on heather on the moors ;
and the beautiful Zoxocampa pastinum, which in the daytime can be found just
under soil at the base of the V7c¢a plants which grow in such luxuriance on some-
parts of the cliffs, and the leaves of which are observed to have been eaten.”
Mr. F. Elgee writes :—‘‘ The Pear! Bordered Fritillaries are numerous in the-
glacial slacks of Jugger Howe, Evan Howe, and Bitter Howe.”
Coleoptera.—The Yorkshire Coleoptera Committee will be officially repre-
sented by its Chairman, Mr. M. L. Thompson, F.E.S.
Mr. M. L. Thompson writes :—‘* Although very few beetles have been:
recorded from Robin Hood’s Bay, the locality should be well worthy of investiga-
tion. On the coast especially 4éfus marinus, Bembidium anglicanum, B affine,
B. bruxellense, species of Dyschirius and Bledius, Phytosus, Cafius, and Aleochara:
(among seaweed), will probably be found, also the local Neéria léwida, with species
of Amara and Harpalus at the foot of the cliffs. Grassy slopes should not be
neglected, as many good beetles have been met with in such places along the-
Yorkshire coast.”
Hemiptera, Hymenoptera, and Diptera.—Mr. F. Elgee writes that A/udéilla-
europea was taken by him on Brown Rigg in August, 1904, this being the second
record of its occurence, and he suggests that it is a possible glacial survival on the-
driftless area.
ACCOMMODATION will be provided at the Grosvenor and the Victoria.
Hotels, Robin Hood’s Bay. Terms, 8/- per day (inclusive).
The Divisional Secretary has secured accommodation for a considerable-
number of members. and those who intend joining this excursion should
communicate with him wo¢ later than Saturday, Alay rrth, after which members.
must make their own arrangements.

GEOLOGY.—The Geological Section will be officially represented by its
President, Mr. Cosmo Johns, F.G.S., and its Secretary, Mr. E. Hawkesworth.
Mr. J. W. Stather, F.G.S., writes :—South Cave is situated about three miles
north of the Humber, just below the western escarpment of the Yorkshire Wolds,
and is a convenient centre from which can be visited good sections in a number of
different formaticas.
The Geologist who has only a few hours to spend in the district had better
alight at South Cave station and examine the sections exposed near by, and in the
series of railway cuttings to the eastward as far as Weediey. He will then, in the
course of a short walk, see exposed in the cuttings, or pass over in the intervening
valley, the following formations in ascending order :—
Millepore bed ; ; : Good section and fossiliferous.
Oolites Kellaways rock . : : ditto
‘ Oxford Clay ; : , Obscure sections.
Kimeridge Clay . ° : ditto
Red Chalk ; : : Fossiliferous sections.
Cretaceous {Lowes (Grey) Chalk . ‘ Good sections.
Middle (Flinty) Chalk
On the return journey, if time permits, the so called ‘* Gryphite Gravels ”
exposed in several pits at the west end of South Cave, are well worth a visit.
Visitors wishing to get an insight into the general geological structure and
physical features of the district should climb the Wold escarpment, from whence; on
a clear day, a series of extensive and charming views can be obtained of the
Yorkshire and Lincolnshire Wolds, the valley of the Humber, and the Plain of York.

Problems.—The solid geology of the Cave district is, in the main, of a simple
character and easily understood. It may however be mentioned that the clays
between the Kellaways Rock and the Red Chalk, mapped by the Geological Survey
as Kimmeridge Clay and Oxford Clay respectively, are imperfectly known, and any
new fact as to their nature and relationship would be welcome.
On the other hand, the extensive and varied szperfictal deposits which occur
in the district are very imperfectly understood, and present a fine field for
original work.
BOTANY.—The Botanical Section will be officially represented by Mr.
C. Crossland, F.L.S., and Mr. J. F. Robinson.
Flowering Plants.—Since the last field meeting of the Y. N. U. at
South Cave, August, 1894, the ‘‘Flora of the E. R. Yorkshire” (Brown
and Sons, pub. 1902), has been published, and therein will be found as full
an account of the plant possibilities of the district as is likely to be found in any
other work. South Cave, etc., are included in District No. 4 of **‘ The Flora”
(vide Map), and consists of the western escarpments of the lower Chalk Wolds, as
well as the ‘‘foot-hills,” as they may be called, which are due to the out-crops of
Oolitic and Liassic rocks, together with the gravels and blown sands to the west-
ward, which probably cver-top Triassic Sandstones. These rocks give the larger
plant associations their respective characters. From the published work above
mamed there should be seen :—
On the chalk :—feseda lutea, Helianthemum chamecistus, Viola hirta,
Polygala serpyllacea, Spirea filipendula, Cunicus eriophorus, Picris hieracioides,
Atropos Belladonna, Hyoscyamus niger, Hypopitys monotropa, Ophrys apifera,
Milium effusum, and Asplentum ruta-muraria.
On the Jurassic rocks and the sands and gravels, the following :—7eesdalia
mudicaulis, Silene anglica, Cerastium semidecandrum, C. glomeratum and C.
arvense, Geranium pyrenaicum, Astragalus glycyphyllos, Ornithopus perpusitlus,
Saxifraga tridactylites and S. granulata, Bryonia dioica, Myosotis collina and M.
versicolor, Marrubium vulgare and Balloéa nigra (both horehounds are very common
sand-loving plants), Scleranthus annuus, Orchis ustulata, O. morio (in some
beautiful colour forms), Zamus communis, Schenus nigricans, Carex dioica, C.
werna, Aira precox, and Botrychium lunaria (the Moonwort Fern), which, if
carefully looked for, should be found on every gravelly mound.
Most of the selection of plants above mentioned will be in flower, but if not
are characteristic to be detected otherwise.
Mosses and Hepatics.—The Yorkshire Bryological Committee will be
officially represented.
Mr. Ingham writes ;—JVeckera cx7spa seems to be the only moss recorded from
South Cave, but this moss is an indication of a good district, and further records
would be welcomed to add to the 223 species and 61 varieties of mosses so far
recorded for the East Riding.
No Hepatics are recorded.
Fungi.—The Yorksnire Mycological Committee will be officially represented
by its Secretary, Mr. C, Crossland, who writes :—
After all the rain we have had there is a probability that a few Fungi will be
found if carefully looked for. The 1894 Circular says: ‘*‘ The beech woods yield
a considerable variety of Fungi, some of which may be found at any visit during
the year.”
VERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY.—The Vertebrate Section will be officially
represented by its President, Mr. Riley Fortune.
Mammalia.—Stoat, Weasel, Rat, Water Vole, etc.
Birds.—The following birds breed in the district :—Kestrel, Sparrowhawk,
Long-eared and Barn Owls, Spotted Flycatcher, Carrion Crow, Magpie, Bullfinch,
Treepipit, Whinchat, Blackcap, Garden Warbler, Willow Wren, etc.
Fishes.— Trout (Drewton St1eam).
CONCHOLOGY.—The Conchological Section will be represented by its
Secretary, Mr. W. D. Roebuck, F.L.S., and Mr. J. W. Taylor.
Some forty species of terrestrial mollusca have been recorded in the immediate
vicinity of South Cave, and eight aquatic species, and of the former the following
may be more particularly mentioned as occuring more or less prolific. Hyalinza
pura, H. fulva, H. nitida, Helix pygmaa, H. aculeata, Helix hortensts var. lilacena,,
fi. itala, Pupa muscorum, Vertigo antivertigo, V. pyemea, Clausilia laminata,,
and Cecilioides acicula.
. ENTOMOLOGY.—tThe Entomological Section will be officially represented.
Lepidoptera.—Mr. J. W. Boult writes:—The district to be visited is
perhaps one of the most promising that could have been selected in the
East Riding, as there are entomologists in Hull who can recollect many very rare-
insects being taken in Drewton Dale and neigbourhood. Of recent years, how-
ever, the district has not received much attention, and it is not at all improbable that
in some of the undisturbed parts many interesting insects which have been lost sight
of still exist, as in fact has been found to be the case in one or two instances from in-
vestigations during recent years. The following insects have been taken in the
neighbourhood :—Argynnis paphia, A. aglaia, A. euphrosyne, Colias edusa, Apa-
tura ivis, Satyrus semele, Hesperia linea, Procris geryon, Acherontia atropa,
Cherocampa elpenor, Chelonia plantaginis, Selenia lunaria, Eurymene dolobraria,.
Gometra papilionaria,and about fifty other species of Lepidoptera.
Coleoptera.—The Yorkshire Coleoptera Committee will be represented by
Mr. T. Stainforth, who writes :—
The district to be investigated is in its character a not unpromising one for
the labours of the coleopterist. In the 157th Circular (May, 1901), the late
C. W. Russell, of Hull, writes that he had taken in East Dale, about Little Weighton,
and South Cave, Lezstus fulvtbarbis, L. rufescens, East Dale, Nebria brevicollis,
Badister bipustulatus, Pterostichus streenuus Panz., Amara spinipes Auct., Cala-
thus ctsteloides, C. piceus, Bembidium lampros, B. quadrimaculatum, Lebia chloro-
cephala, East Dale, Stomzs pumicatus, Cercyon unipunctatus, Necrophorus
mortuorum, Necrodes littoralis, Silpha atrata, Choleva angustata, C. tristis, Adalia
obliterata, Halyzia 18-guitata, Chilocorus similis, East Dale, Nitidula bipustulata,
Soronta grisea, East Dale, Lathridius lardarius, Dermestes murinus, East Dale,
Altagenus pellio, Aphodius merdarius, A. luridus, Ptinus fur, Lema lichenis,.
Chrysomela varians, East Dale, Phadon tumidulus, Sermyla halensis, Drewton
Dale, Phyllotreta nemorum, Scaphidema metallicum, East Dale, Rhinosimus rufi-
collis, R. planirostris, Pissodes pinz, in the wooded part of East Dale, Ovrchestes
Jagi, Scolytus destructor, Myelophilus piniperda, and Hylobius abietis, both in the
wooded part of East Dale.
On the excursion in the Brough district, for which the Circular (157) was issued,
were taken, among other species, Bembidium minimum, B. eneum, Laccobius
sinuatus, Melanophthalma gibhosa, Sinodendron cylindricum, Melanotus rufipes,
and Hedobia imperialis. In the 111th Circular (Aug., 1894), are mentioned :—
Carabus catenulatus, C. monzlis, Necrophorus ruspator, and Silpha thoracica,
From SouthCave, Staphylinus stercorarius ; and from Weedley Springs, Chrysome/a
marginalis (in 1906) have been recorded. On June 8th of this year, Cychrus
rostratus and Lacon murinus were found at North Cave.

THE 205RD MEETING
WILL BE HELD AT
EX Fi Oh WW EE,
FoR THORNE WASTE,
On THURSDAY, JULY IIth, 1907.
RAILWAY ARRANGEMENTS.--Through return tickets at pleasure
party rates will be issued at all stations on the G.C., G.N., H. & B., L. &-Y.,
L. & N.W., Midland, and N.E. Railways, which have booking arrangements for
Thorne or Crowle, to Members and Associates of the Y.N.U., surrendering the
Certificate noted below. Tickets taken on Wednesday, July 1oth, will be availabie
for return on Friday, July 12th. When through bookings are not in operation
Members may book to most convenient junction, and re-book to destination,
the reduced fares being available for each stage of the journey.
N.B.—The Railway Booking Clerks will only grant these reduced fares to
Members and Associates producing a Special Certificate signed by the Secretary
of the Union. Members and Associates wishing for this Certificate must apply
to Mr. Sheppard for it. At stations on the N.E. Rly tickets at the reduced fares
will be issued on production of the signed card of membership.
BOOKS AND MAPS.—The whole of the district to be investigated is
included in Sheet 79 of the One-Inch Ordnance Map. The Geological Survey
Maps are 86 and 87 N.#. and S.E. (old series). The following works may
be consulted :—Davis and Lees’ ‘‘ West Yorkshire,” and F. A, Lees’ ‘‘ Flora of the
West Riding ;” ‘‘ The Natural History of Goole Moor,” T. Bunker (Trans. Hull
Sci. and F. N. Club, 1898).
THE DISTRICT to be investigated is included in Sheet 79 of the One-
Inch Ordnance Survey Map.
HEADQUARTERS.—Red Lion Hotel, Thorne.
ROUTES.—The geological party start from Crowle (G.C.) station at Io-57
(leaving Doncaster, 10-35; Leeds Central, 9-0; York, 8-35; Barnsley, 9-52; Sheffield,
9-45; Hull, via Doncaster, 8-22 or 9-45, véa New Holland, 8-25) ; visit Gravels and
Keuper Marls at Crowle; walk by Letley and Godknow Bridge to Thorne Waste,
and tnence to Thorne.
The general body of Naturalists arriving at Thorne N.E. from the West at
10-57 a.m., and from Hull at 11-7 a.m., will proceed, under the leadership of
Messrs. H. H. Corbett and M. H. Stiles, by the canal:side and fields‘to Thorne
Moor, eventually meeting at Medge Hall Station at 4-50 p.m., for the return
to Thorne.
Another party, arriving at Medge Hall from Doncaster and the West, at
12-41 p.m., will investigate the eastern side of the Moor, and return to Thorne
from Medge Hall at 4-50 p.m.
PERMISSION to visit their properties has been kindly granted by
J. Elmhirst, Esq., J.P., and the British Moss Litter Co., on the understanding
that there be no smoking nor using lights of any kind on the Moor.
hn
GEOLOGY.—The Geological Section will be officially represented by its
President, Mr. Cosmo Johns, F.G.S.
Mr. H. Culpin writes :—The solid geology of the district is Trias, of which
a fine fresh section in (a) the Keuper Marls is now exposed at the Crowle Brick
and Tile Works. A small fault is shown very effectively by the contrast between
the red and green layers, and there are some contortions which should also prove
tae to the photographers. (4) The Bunter sands may be seen in a pit at
Thorne. em
The superficial deposits are (a) blown sand, (4) peat, and (c) gravels. (a) The
blown sand may be seen at numerous places in the district. (6) The peat will
naturally receive a good deal of attention during the present visit. It is 20 feet
thick on Thorne Waste, and some excellent sections are exposed. (c) There are
good exposures on the south side of Crowle Hill of gravels consisting of Keuper
marlstone interstratified with sand; and at Thorne of gravels and sand, consisting
chiefly of pebbles of magnesian limestone, with some rounded chunks of Bunter,
and a sprinkling of strangers. These exposures, and some gravel ridges
in the intervening area, form an interesting ‘link between the gravels of
magnesian limestone visited last year at Askern, and the ‘‘ Gryphcea” and other
gravels recently inspected near South Cave.
BOTANY.—The Botanical Section will be officially represented by Messrs.
HH. Corbett, W. G: Smith, Ph. D., and T. W: Woodhead, Ph. D.
* Mr. Corbett writes :—The Plant associations of the Moor are very characteristic
and interesting. The borders of the Moor are fringed with a thick growth of Birch,
Alder, Willow, Gale, and Kramble, the undergrowth being chiefly Bracken. Along
with these are planted numerous Pines and Larches. Upon the Mooritself are several
distinct associations. (1) Wherever the peat has been recently disturbed and raised,
wind-borne colonists predominate, the most conspicuous being £pi/obium
angustifolium. (2) On dry parts not recently disturbed is a luxuriant growth of
Bracken. In some places the ferns are eight feet high or more. (3) The natural
surface of the bog is chiefly occupied by Calluna, Myrica and Eriophorum vaginatum,
with much Z7ica detralix and Andromeda in places. (4) The lower and wetter
portions support Carex spp., Eriophorum angustifolium, Drosera, etc.
Among the more interesting species to be found in flowers at the time of the
excursion are Zhalictrum flavum, Ranunculus godront:, R. circinatus, R. arvensis,
Lerysimum chewranthoides, Barbarea stricta, Lepidium draba, Coronopus Ruelit, Drosera
votundtfolia, D. intermedia, Stellaria aquatica, S. glauca, Buda rubra, Comarum
palustre, Rubus fissus, R. plicatus, Rosa obtusifolia, Peucedanum palustre, Dipsacus
sylvestris, Bidens tripartita, Hieractum umbellatum, Schollera Oxycoccus, Andromeda
Polijfolia, Rhinanthus major, Lystmachia Nummularia, L. vulgaris, Typha
angustifolia, Polamogeton Friestt, P. pectinatus, Butomus umbellatus, Hydrocharis
morsius-raneé, Carex curta, C. pseudo-cyperus, etc., etc.
Fungi.—The Mycological Committee will be represented by its Secretary,
Mr. C. Crossland, F.L.S., who writes :—There are sure to be many Fungi on the
‘Waste, after the more than copious rains that we have had.
VERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY.—The Vertebrate Section will be officially
represented.
Mr. Corbett writes :—
Mammalia,—The usual woodland and marshland species are to be found,
and both Otter and Badger still haunt the neighbourhood.
Aves.—The Moor itself, and its edges, thick with birch, willow, gale, etc.,
afford abundant shelter and breeding sites for birds; and did the keepers let them
alone, far more would avail themselves of the chance of making themselves at home.
Among the more interesting species seen by the writer during the breeding season
are :—Stonechat, Wheatear, Nightingale, Wood-warbler, Reed-warbler, Grass-
hopper-warbler, Lesser Redpole, Corn-bunting, Nightjar, Great-spotted Wood-
pecker, Green Woodpecker, Kingfisher, Long-eared Owl, Tawny Owl, Heron,
Mallard, Turtledove, Blackcock, Water rail, Redshank, Snipe, Common Sandpiper,
Curlew, Black-headed Gull, Little Grebe and Great Crested Grebe.
Reptilia.—Adders are common on the Moor, and Grass Snakes in the damp
fields near by. Lizards are occasionally seen on sandy banks.
Amphibia and Pisces.—There is nothing of especial interest in these orders.
CONCHOLOGY.—The Conchological Section will be represented by
its President, Mr. J. E. Crowther.
Mollusca.—The district being chiefly on peat, sand, and clay, is not good for
terrestrial mollusca, but the canal and numerous ditches are rich in aquatic forms.
Among the more local of these are Physa hypnorum, Bythinta leachii, Vivipara
contecta, and Spherium ovale.
Mr. J. E. Crowther writes :—When working in the district last week in April
and first week in May, we noted the following Mollusca in the ditches near
Thorne :—Limnaea pereger, L. palustris, L. truncatula, L. stagnalis, L. glabra,
Planorbis corneus, P. albus, P. carinatus, P. vortex, P. contortus, Physa
Jontinalis, P. hypnorum, Bythinia tentaculata, B. leachi.
ENTOMOLOGY.—The Entomological Section will be officially represented.
Mr. Corbett writes :—
Lepidoptera.—It would be useless to attempt a list of species occurring in so.
rich a locality; but a few of the more local species likely to be found are
appended :—Chortobius typhon, Hesperia linea, Procris stalicis, Zygena
filipendulae, Bombyx callunae, Saturnia canpint, Hyria auroraria, Fidonia
atomaria (very variable), Platypteryx falcula, and very many ‘‘ good things”
among: the micros.
The Yorkshire Coleoptera Committee will be represented by Messrs. E. G.
Bayford and H. H. Corbett.
Coleoptera.—The district is particularly rich in beetles, and many good species.
are likely to be found. Among the rarer kinds captured in the locality by Mr.
Corbett are :—JVotiophilus palustris, Duft., Lezstus spincbarbis, F., Acupalpus
dorsalis, F., A. extguusv. luridus, Dj., Bradycellus similis, Dj., B. placidus,

ARNCLIFFE,
FOR THE INVESTIGATION OF
LITTONDALE.
Bank Hotiday Week End, August 2rd to Sth, 1907.
RAILWAY ARRANGEMENTS.—Through return tickets at pleasure
party rates will be issued at all stations on the G.C., G.N., H. & B., L. & Y.,
L. & N.W., Midland, and N.E. Railways, which have booking arrangements for
GRASSINGTON, to Members and Associates of the Y.N.U., surrendering the
Certificate noted below. Tickets taken on Friday, August 2nd, will be available
for return on Tuesday, August 6th. Where through bookings are not in operation
Members may book to most convenient junction, and re-book to destination,
the reduced fares being available for each stage of the journey.

of the Union. Members and Associates wishing for this Certificate must apply
to Mr. Sheppard for it. At stations on the N.E. Rly. tickets at the redueed fares
will be issued on production of the signed card of membership.
ACCOMMODATION is strictly limited. In August many of the Inns have
their regular customers. It is necessary, therefore, that members should write at
once to secure beds, which, in almost every case, are double beds.
All available beds have been booked by the Union at the following places,
and members must write direct.
The Falcon Hotel, Arncliffe, Skipton (Mr. Miller). Terms, 6/- per day.
The Racehorses, Kettlewell, Skipton (Miss Leyland). Terms, 7/6 per day.
The Queen’s Arms, Litton, Skipton (Mr. J. Wiseman). Terms, 6/- per day.
Mrs. Lund, Temperance Boarding House, Arncliffe, Skipton.
The Blue Bell, Kettlewell, Skipton (Mr. Pattison). Terms, 6/- per day.
There are also apartments to be had in Arncliffe, Kettlewell, Hawkswick, etc.
BOOKS AND MAPS.—The whole area is included in a Sheet of the
One-Inch Ordnance Map, which may be obtained geologically coloured. Baker’s
‘* North Yorkshire”? may be consulted. For an account of the geology of the
district, see the ‘‘ Naturalist’ for August Ist.
THE DISTRICT.— Upper Wharfedale is the union of two dales, Langstroth-
dale and Littondale, which unite about half a mile above Kilnsey Scar. These two
dales are approximately equal in extent as regards drainage area and the length of
their streams. Langstrothdale has been more than once visited by the Union, and
is not within the scope of the present excursion, which is intended exclusively for
the investigation of Littondale, the basin drained by the little river Skirfare, which
joins the Wharfe between Kilnsey and Kettlewell. Zoologists and botanists are
therefore desired to confine their attention to this river-basin, no part of which is
lower than 636 feet in altitude, the height marked close to Skipton Bridge, which
carries the high road across the mouth of the valley, and the present opportunity
is a good one for working Littondale and its little tributary gills, watered by the Cush
Beck, Foxup Beck, Halton Beck, Hesleden Beck, and Cowside Beck. The lofty
summit of Penyghent (2231 feet), Fountains Fell (2191 feet), Darnbrook Fell (2¢48
feet), Cush Knott (1959 feet), and the Horse’s Head (2001 feet), are also included
within the area to be worked, the whole district forming an attractive area of mountain
country, of which practically nothing is known zoologically and not very much
botanically beyond the immediate vicinity of Arncliffe itself.
HEADQUARTERS.—The Falcon Hotel, Arncliffe.
EVENING MEETING.—Saturday evening, at 8-o p.m., at the Falcon
Hotel, Arncliffe, there will be a meeting, at which the President will be in the
chair, and the Rev. W. A. Shuffrey, M.A., will read a paper upon ‘‘ The Botany
of Littondale,” and Mr. W. Denison Roebuck, F.L.S., will give some notes on the
list of Hemiptera known to inhabit Yorkshire, and a note on some recent additions
to the list of Hymenoptera. It is hoped there wil] be a fuil attendance of the new
Committee for Yorkshire Hymenoptera, Diptera, and Hemiptera.
ROUTES.—The Rev. W. A. Shuffrey will conduct a party to the place where
Dryas or Rubus Chamemorus grows.
PERMISSION to visit his property has been kindly granted by
Mr. Walter Morrison, Malham, Skipton.
GEOLOGY.—The Geological Section will be officially represented by
Mr. Cosmo Johns, F.G.S.
BOTANY.—The Botanical Section will be officially represented by its
President, Mr. W. G. Smith, Ph.D., and Mr. T. W. Woodhead, Ph.D.
Flowering Plants.—An account of the botany of Littondale was published in
the ‘‘ Yorkshire Naturalist ” for February, 1891, by the Rev. W. A. Shuffrey, Vicar
of Arncliffe. Since then he has found a few additional specimens. This Dale has
a very rich flora considering that there is no arable land in the dale. The Dryas
octopetala grows here (the only station in the West Riding). The Cypripedium
Calceolus once grew in the dale, but is probably now extinct. Specimens have
recently been found a few miles away, and it may probably turn up again in the
valley. Of Saxifrages we have S. ofpositifolia, S. aizoides, S. granulata, S.
umbrosa, and S. hypnotdes in abundance. Geraniums are plentiful, the G. pheum
grows wild in one spot. Serratula tinctorta, Tragopogon pratensis, Polemonium
ceruleum, Planitago maritima, Pinguicula vulgaris, Polygonum viviparum,
Daphne Mezereum, Colchicum autumnale, Ophrys muscifera, and Primula
_farinosa can be found in the valley or in the woods on the slopes of the hills.
On the moors and hills botanists may look for Rubus Chamemorus, Thlaspi
alpestre, Melampyrum pratense, Triglochin palustre, Botrychium Lunaria, Polystt-
chum Lonchitis,and Narthectum ossifragum. In August many of these flowers will
have ceased to bloom.
Mosses and Lichens have not been thoroughly explored. Mr. Shuffrey has
found Aypnum tamariscinum plentiful, Zypnum triquetrum, Bartramia fontana,
Hypnum fiiiforme, Bryum nutans, Neckera crispa, Madothica platyphylla, Hypnum
splendens, Dicranum scoparium, etc., etc. Marchantia polymorpha.
Fungi.—The Yorkshire Mycological Committee will be officially represented
by its Secretary, Mr. Chas. Crossland, F.L.S.
Mr. Crossland writes:—Very few Fungi are recorded for the immediate
neighbourhoods of Kettlewell and Arncliffe. There will be plenty, no doubt, if
sought after, and the week-end will afford facilities for doing this.
BOTANICAL SURVEY.—The greater part of the district is included on the
Harrogate and Skipton Vegetation Map, by Messrs. Smith & Rankin (Geographical
‘Journal, August, 1903); this may be purchased. Copies of the paper (without
map) may be obtained free of charge from Dr. W. G. Smith (University of Leeds),
or from Mr. Sheppard, at Arncliffe; this contains lists of plants and other
observations on the vegetation of the Limestone and Grits, and will be useful to
those interested in plant distribution.
VERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY.—The Vertebrate Section will be officially
represented by Mr. H. B. Booth, who writes :—
Mammals.—The Stoat and Weasel are almost too numerous. Rabbits are
common, but hares are becoming scarce. No doubt many species of ‘‘small deer”’
“occur, but I have only identified the Common Shrew, the Long-tailed Field Mouse,
and the Mole in this dale. The mounds of the latter may be seen almost on the
‘summits of the surrounding moors during the summer months. Bats occur in small
numbers, and their identification would be of interest. The Rev. W. A. Shuffrey
states that on rare occasions Otters have been seen on the stream near Arncliffe.
-A few Goats live on Kilnsey Crag (at the foot of tne valley) almost ina feral state.
Birds.—The usual birds of the higher dales ot North-west Yorkshire will be
found, and fairly plentifully too, with the exception perhaps of a few strictly wood-
land species. The characteristic birds of this almost isolated dale are the Curlew,
Carrion Crow, Lapwing, Snipe, Dipper, Grey Wagtail, Yellow Wagtail, Wheatear,
Redstart, Blackbird, Chaffinch, Wren, and Sandpiper. The Kestrel and the
Sparrow Hawk breed there in comparative abundance, and a few pairs of Merlins
nest on the surrounding Moors. On Penyghent the Peregrine Falcon attempts an
eyrie almost every year, and is protected ‘by the landowner and the law ; so perhaps,
‘anthe future, our Wild Birds and Eggs Protection Acts Committee may be
anstrumental in bringing any offenders to justice. The Raven is not uncommon on
the moors during the lambing season, and a pair occasionally nest only just out of
the dale. The Golden Plovers breed on Fountain’s Fell and near Birk’s Fell.
Stockdoves are not uncommon, and nest on Kilnsey Crag and on Arncliffe Clouders.
A look-out should be kept for the Twite and the Tree Sparrow—both very local
birds in this district. The House Sparrow is actually not by any means common,
and the natives are to be congratulated upon the fact. Both the Common Buzzard’
and the Dotterel are recorded in Littondale. From what information that I have
been able to gather on the spot, I rather fear they were cases of mistaken identity ;
but if either of these species can be substantiated by the visit of the Yorkshire
Naturalist Union, it will be a valuable record.
Fishes.—The Trout is very plentiful where there is Jermzament water, and no- -
doubt several other species will be found to occur.
CONCHOLOGY.—The Conchological Section will be officially represented by
its Secretary, Mr. W. Denison Roebuck, F.L.S.
Land and Fresh Water Mollusca.—There are but a few casual records of
land-shells, none whatever of slugs or fresh water shells. It would be interesting
to confirm the record in Dyson’s Manchester list of 1850, of Helix ericetorum
being very common on the banks of Arncliffe Beck, on the sandy soils, if indeed
this be the Arncliffe meant. On the 19th September, 1872, Mr. W. Denison
Roebuck noted Helix rupestris, H. rotundata, H. hispida, and var. hispidosa, alb
in plenty. Swccinea putris and Zua lubrica in Littondale and near Arncliffe.
Mr. W. West, F.L.S., found Vztrina pellucida there 27th March, 1880, and in
1881, Mr. George Roberts found Helix lapicida and Clausilia cravenensis there.
The district does not appear to have been since visited by Conchologists, and
consequently there is ample room for discovery. The altitudinal range of
Mollusca (and indeed of all forms of animal life) up the little gills and the mountain
slopes and summits should be carefully noted, and search might usefully be made
for Pupa secale on the limestone scars, the species being known to occur on those
near Kettlewell.
ENTOMOLOGY.—The Entomological Section will be officially represented,
Mr. W. D. Roebuck, F.L.S., writes :—
Lepidoptera.—Nothing is known of the lepidoptera, the common Vanessa
urtice being the only species actually known. But search should be made for
various montane species, and it is even within the bounds of possibility that
Erebia blandina may turn up.
Coleoptera, Hymenoptera, Diptera, etc.—There are no published records, so-
the field is open for research, and montane species should be especially searched for.
Mr. E. G. Bayford writes:—There are no records of Coleoptera for the
immediate district. Many good species have, however, been taken in localities
not many miles distant, and similar in altitude. Of these mention may be made
of Ancistronycha abdominalis, Corymbites pectinicornis, C. cupreus, and var.
@ruginosus. .
Mr. H. Ostheide writes :—I have taken Carabus violaceus, Cychrus rostratus,
Serica brunnea near Kettlewell, but have no records from Arncliffe. Cavabus
glabratus might be looked for.

THE 205TH MEETING
WILL BE HELD AT
HORTON - IN - RIBBLESDALE,
ON
saturday, Sept. 7th, 19077.
RAILWAY ARRANGEMENTS.—Through return tickets at pleasure
party rates will be issued at all stations on the G.C., G.N., H. & B., L. & Y.,
L. & N.W., Midland and N.E. Railways, which have booking arrangements for
HORTON to Members and Associates of the Y.N.U., surrendering the
Certificate noted below. Tickets taken on Friday, September 6th, will be available
for return on Monday, September 9th. Where through bookings are not in operation
Members may book to most convenient junction, and re-book to destination,
the reduced fares being available for each stage of the journey.
N.B.—The Railway Booking Clerks will only grant these reduced fares to
Members and Associates producing a Special Certificate signed by the Secretary
of the Union. Members and Associates wishing for this Certificate must apply
to Mr. Sheppard forit. At Stations on the N.E. Rly. tickets at the reduced fares
will be issued on production of the signed card of membership.
BOOKS AND MAPS.—The whole area is included in Sheets 50 and 60 (g2
N.W. and 97 S.W.) of the One-Inch Ordnance Map, which may be obtained
geologically coloured.
There is an account of the last excursion of the Union to Horton in the
‘Naturalist ” for 1892, pp. 177—185.
References may be made to Prof. Hughes’ papers, diagrams, and sections at
Crag Hill and Dry Hillin Vols. XIV., p. 339, and XVI., p. 67, of the ‘‘ Proceedings
of the Yorkshire Geological Society’; to the ‘‘ Ingleborough Geological Memoirs,”
pp. 21 and 22; to Davis and Lee’s ‘‘ West Yorkshire”; and to Phillip’s
classical work. There is also a good deal of information on the District in
Speight’s ‘* North West Yorkshire Highlands,” and in Bank’s ‘‘ Walks in York-
shire ” (N.W. section).
THE DISTRICT—Mr. Robinson writes :—-Horton, at a height approaching
800 feet above sea level, still slumbers in hoary antiquity on the partly buried floor
of the oldest rocks of the county. The approach from the south is notable. The
traveller during the last seven miles of his journey will cross the two Craven faults
(at Settle and Great Stainforth) and traverse in succession and on the line level
millstone grits, great scar limestone, and rocks of Silurian age—phenomena which
are due to the mighty forces of terrestial stress in times more antiquated than the
village.
On arrival at the Railway Station pause should be made to contemplate the
unusually wild scene around. Glaciers and ice sheets, and the denudation which
followed their retreat, have shaped the surrounding surface. Suites of Drumlins
and other evidences of ice action may be discerned far away to the north, as well
as on and between the bold escarpments of towering Penyghent, and the other adjacent
high mountain masses. Possibly the historian Whitaker was dreaming of the effects
of glacial periods when he described ‘‘ the forefathers of the Hamiet as cultivating
their little grain in a damp and unsunned valley between the shades of Ingle-
borough and Penigent.”
HEADQUARTERS.—The Golden Lion Hotel, Horton-in-Ribblesdale.
ACCOMMODATION.—Members wishing to stay over Sunday will find
accommodation.at Headquarters, the Golden Lion, Horton-in-Ribblesdale, at 6/-
per day. They will please write to Mrs. Cooke, Golden Lion, direct. Private
accommodation may be had at Mrs. P. Davies, Station House; Mrs. Swinbank,
Bee Croft Hall. Other addresses may be obtained from the Vicar.
ROUTES.—The geological party, under the leadership of Mr. Johns and Mr.
Hawkeswortn, will proceed, on the arrival of the 10-18 a.m. at Horton, to Bee Croft
Hall and Gillet Brice Head, and will work south along the Western Escarpment
of Ribblesdale (including the great quarries) to Helwith Bridge; thence a return
will be made to Horton on the outcrops of the pre carboniferous rocks. Shouid
time permit, Dowgill, near the village, will be examined.
PERMISSION to visit their properties has been kindly granted by Messrs.
Jas. Anson Farrer, of Ingleborough Hall; John Foster, of Dank Ghyell; John
Delany, of Settle; T. Benson, P. Ford, of Bentham; John Hammond, of
Lincoln’s Inn; and the Ribblesdale Lime Co.
Members are particularly requested to keep away from heather covered patches,
as most of the moors have been temporarily let to strangers, and grouse shooting
is now in progress. It is confidently anticipated that members will, as usual, do
all in their power to discourage the uprooting of ferns and rare plants.
_GEOLOGY.—The Geological Section will be officially represented by
Mr Cosmo Johns and Mr. E. Hawkesworth.
Mr. Hawkesworth writes :—The pre carboniferous rocks of the Horton area will
well repay attention. The valley is cut through them from Horton to Great
Stainforth, where they are terminated by the Craven fault. They are well exposed
on both sides of the dale, but particularly so on the western side, where they are
quarried extensively, and the junction between them and the overlying carboniferous
rocks is shown vividly. Professor T. Mc K. Hughes, in his paper in Proc. Yorks.
Geol. Soc., quoted above, gives the following succession.
A. Silurian—a. Studfold Sandstone.
6. Horton Flags (Upper Coniston Flags of Lake District).
c. Austwick Grits.
d. Pale Slates and Graptolitic Mudstones with subordinate
Limestones.
é. Basement Bed of Silurian.
B. Bala Beds (Ordovician).
The classification of the Geological Survey is somewhat different. There is a
good section of the lower beds in Delaney’s Quarry. The section of Crag Hili is
full of interest, showing the Silurians folded over the Bala beds. The Horton
Flags, which have an estimated thickness of 2,000 feet, are worked at Areo Wood
Combs and Dry Rigg quarries, many fossils having been found at the latter place,
in calcareous concretions. Graptolites may be found in the quarry at Helwith
Bridge.
Mr. R. H. Rastall, in a recently published paper, places the beds below the
Coniston Limestone, at Dow Gill and Row End, near Horton, in his Ingletonian
series of slates and grits, which he concludes to be of pre-Cambrian age.
BOTANY.—The Botanical Section will be officially represented.
Flowering Plants.—Mr. Wm. West writes :—Among the flowering plants are
Actea spicata, Thalictrum minus, Trollius, Cardamine impatiens, Diaba incana,
Cochlearia alpina, Geranium sanguineum, G. sylvaticum, Potertum sanguisorba,
Rubus saxatilis, R. Chamaemorus, Pyrus rupicola, Sedum rhodiola, Saxifraga
cppositefolia, S. hypnoides, Galium sylvestre, Scabtosa Columbaria, Antennaria
diviea, Carduus heterophylius, Carlina, Primuta farinosa, Daphne mezereum,
Listera cordata, Blysmus compressus, Carex rigida, Sesleria caerulea, Lycopodium
clavatum, L. alpinum, L. Selago, Selaginella, Asplenium viride, Cryptogramme
crispa, Polypodium Robertianum, Cystopteris fragilis, etc.
Mosses and Hepatics.—The Yorkshire Byrological Committee will be
officially represented.
Mr. West writes:—Among the very numerous species which occur here,
belonging to this section, are the following :—Andreea petrophila, A. crassinervis,
A. Grimsulana, many species of Sphagnum, Rhabdoweisia fugax, Dicranum
Juscescens, Dttrichum flexicaule, Trichostomum mutabile, Barbula intermedia,
Ulota Bruchi, Bartramia CGderi, Breutelia, Mnium serratum, M. undulatum in
fruit, A/yurella julacea, Pseudoleskea catenulata, Jungermannia cordifolia, /.
spherocarpa, J. riparia, Nardia emarginata, Reboulia hemispherica, Preissia
commutata, etc.
W. Ingham writes :—Horton is an excellent centre for the bryologist, as the
following plants indicate, all of which grow close by this place.
Wersta rupestris, Barbula recurvifolia, B. vinealis, Tortula intermedia,
Swartzia montana, Grimmia trichophylla on slate rocks, Rhacomitrium
Jasciculare, Zygodon mougeoti, Splachnum sphaericum, Bartramia deri, Plagio-
bryum Lierti, Antitrichia curtipendula, Orthothectum intricatum, Borachythecitum
populeum, B. plumosum, Plagiothectum pulchellum, P. elegans, the last
on
Penyghent crags.
Lunularia cruciata, Frullania Tamarisct, Pellia endiviaefolia, Aneura
sinuaia, Metzgeria pubescens, Anthoceros punctatus, and on Penyghent, the
following rarities :—Cololejeunea calcarea, Cephalozia connivens, Scapania resupi-
nata, Mylia Taylori, Aplozia cordifolia, Lophozia sphaerocarpa, and Marsupella
emarginala.
Ptilidium pulcherrimum, a great rarity, grows on mossy limestone above
Donk Gill—a very interesting gill for both mosses and hepatics.
Lichens.—Mr. Wm. West writes—The lichens are numerous, especially the
saxicolous ones; among the species occuring are :—Collema flaccidum, C. mele-
num, Leptogium lacerum, Sphaerophoron coralloides, Cladonta cervicornis, Evernia
purpuracea, E. prunastri, Cetraria islandica, Solorina saccata, Parmelia laevigata,
P. tiliacea, Squamaria crassa, S. gelida, Placodium murorum, Lectdea vesicularis,
Endocarpon miniatum, E. rufescens, etc.
Algee.—Mr. West writes :—A large number of species occur, particulars of
many of which will be found in the Alga-flora of Yorkshire.
Fungi.—The Yorkshire Mycological Committee will be officially represented.
VERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY.—The Vertebrate Section will be officially
represented.
Mammals.—We have practically no records for the district, the Mole,
Weasel, Stoat, Hare, and Rabbit being the only species recorded. It should be
easily possible to extend this list, especially amongst the smaller species.
Reptiles—Again we have a very meagre list, the Frog and Adder being the
only species recorded.
Fishes.—The rivers are strictly preserved, consequently Trout are extremely
abundant. Minnows are to be found, and probably the Loach and Bull-Head, and
although not coming under the head of vertebrates, it may be interesting to know
that the Crayfish occurs.
Birds.—The time of year is not a very suitable one for birds, as many will
already have left the district, and others will be very silent. Dippers and Yellow
Wagtails are very numerous. The Grey Wagtail and Pied Wagtail are also to be met
with. Kingfishers were not met with at all during the last visit of the Union.
Sandpipers are plentiful, but most of them will already have departed. Most of
the ordinary species may be seen in the valleys. The Reed Bunting and Skylark
which appeared to be missing in the neighbcuring valley of Littondale will be
found here, also several species of warblers ; Sedge Warbler, and Whitethroat, for
instance. It will be interesting to compare the avi-fauna of this valley with that
of Littondale, which the Union has so recently visited. On the moors the
Merlin, Twite, Golden Plover, Curlew, and Snipe are to be found, and amongst
the birds of prey the Kestrel, Sparrow Hawk, and Tawny Owl are residents. The
Peregrine Falcon and Raven anually endeavour to nest on Penyghent, and a few
Magpies still survive the gamekeeper’s gun.

Wankficld Museum (where the Meetings will be held), was formerly the residence
of the late Edward Ackroyd, Esq. It was acquired by the Halifax
Corporation and converted into a Public Library, Museum, and Art Gallery,
and the grounds into a public park.
The Exhibits at Bankfield Museum consist mainly of specimens repre-
senting Ethnology, Local History and Numismatics. Fora provincial town
the ethnological collections are very good, and the local historical collections are-
very fair, arousing considerable interest. The numismatic collections
are still in course of arrangement. Art is only slightly represented and this
chiefly by the loan collections from South Kensington. The Hon. Curator
(Mr. H. Ling Roth), has kindly promised to guide visitors round the museum
in the course of the afternoon and evening.
A Sclection of Drawings and Photographs to illustrate Decoration
in Docal Domestic Brchitecture from Medixval Times to the
end of the 17th century. (Room 11).
Mr. H. P. Kendall writes :—The parish of Halifax is rich in examples of
ancient Halls of a type peculiar to the district, many of which, whilst retaining
the timbers of a Medizeval building were cased with stone in the first half of
the 17th century.
In the Medizeval period the internal walls were frequently decorated by
designs, more or less imaginative, a survival and imitation of the tapestry of
the preceding period. This was followed by panelling in oak and moulding in
plaster of a highly decorative character, in which a shield of Arms usually
forms the principal feature. This form of decoration was particularly favoured
during the Stuart Régime, and many fine examples are still preserved in old
houses in the Parish.

The Circular of the 90th Meeting (Brafferton, May 18th, 1891), and the report
of the Excursion published in ‘** The Naturalist,” August, 1891, pp. 233-240 con-
tain a good ceal of information in all branches of Natural History. See also
Baker’s ‘* North Yorkshire,” Nelson’s ‘‘ Birds of Yorkshire,” etc. Copies of goth |
Circular can be obtained from the Secretary, price 2d. each.
THE DISTRICT to be investigated is the only portion of Morth West
Yorkshire which comes within the low lying area of the Plain of York and lies
between the rivers Swale and Yore near their confluence, and it is requested that
members will confine their investigation to the country lying south and west of the
Swale and north and east of the Yore.
The district is mainly agricultural land, with but few plantations or woods,
but the ditches, streams, and ponds, as well as the two rivers themselves, should be
carefully investigated for aquatic forms of life.
In the northern portion, Baldersby Park and Woods offer scope for searching
for woodland species, and in the extreme south, close to the confluence of the rivers
on Ellingthorpe Ings, is the battlefield of Myton, fought 1319, called the ‘‘ White
Battle,” or the ‘‘ Chapter of Myton,” from the large number of ecclesiastics who
took part in it on the English side.
As a whole, the district is one which has been very little investigated, even by
the Ripon naturalists, to whom it is so readily accessible.
ROUTES.—Members will leave Brafferton Station on the arrival of the 10-36.
The general body of naturalists will investigate Leckby Carr and the neighbourhood,
returning along the banks of the Swale. The vertebrate zoology section will pro-
ceed to Baldersby Park. The geologists will examine the sections mentioned in
Mr. T. C. Mitchell’s notes. A conchological and general naturalists’ party will
walk from Boro’bridge to Brafferton, working the ditches and plantations alongside
the Yore and Swale rivers, under the guidance of the officers of the conchological
section. This route is outside (south of ) the map given herewith.
For those members who would like to drive to Baldersby Park and walk back
a limited number of seats in conveyances may be arranged for if early application is
made to Mr. Fortune. )
PERMISSION to visit their properties has been kindly granted by Viscount
-Downe, Lord Leconfield, the Marquis of Ripon, John Brennard, Esq., B.A.
Woode, Esq., and Marmaduke Furness, Esq.
GEOLOGY.—The geological section will be officially represented. by My.
Cosmo Johns and Mr. E. Hawkesworth.
Mr. T. Carter Mitchell, F.S.A., writes in the 1891 circular :—*‘*‘ In consequence
of a very extensive double fault which occurred after the deposit of the chalk, and
which reaches from the east coast to the magnesian limestone a few miles north of
Ripon, the Lias formation still remains unremoved by denudation as far westward
- as the district which is to be investigated, ‘whereas on both sides of the fault, the
Trias extends some miles further to the east before it underlies the Lias. I am
aware that on the geological Ordnance Map the line which is supposed to mark
the southern boundary of the fault passes close to Asenby village, but I have
reasons for thinking this wrong, as I have found Lias fossils considerably south of
this line, and I am informed that in boring for water on the hill near Cundall
’ Vicarage, the Lias was found to underlie this at considerable depth.
The district which is to be searched is one which should yield a diversity of
objects of interest, as it lies on the borderland where the Keuper sandstones of the
Trias meet the limestones and: the shales of the Lias, the two formations being
separated by a narrow belt of the Rheetic beds, which are the passage beds between
the two, and partake of the character of both, but are generally considered by
geologists to belong to the Trias.
At Asenby Gravel Pits, about half a mile up the river, a good section of the
moraine is to be seen.. The great variety of rocks from which the gravel was derived
is well worth noticing. They range from!Silurian to New Red Sandstone inclusive,
and are interspersed with pieces of Shap granite, and other igneous rocks. In one
part of the narrow road between the gravel hill and the river, is seen a section of
the Lias rock ‘‘2z stu,’ but much ground and shattered by the glacier which crept
over it. A mile further on at Asenby stream, a good section of the Lower Lias
may be seen again underlying a hill of sandy gravel. At Holme Banks, a wood
running along the river side, between Baldersby Park and Baldersby Church, there
is an outcrop of new red sandstone. From the Lias limestone, where it forms the
bed of the Swale at Asenby stream, I-have obtained many fossils, including Zima,
Ostrea, and other Lamellibranchs, a small Crustacean, Pentacrinite stems,
Serpule, etc. On the opposite side of the Swale to the Asenby Gravel Pits, are
some remarkable earthworks.”
BOTANY.—The Botanical Section will be officially represented by the
President, Mr. W. G. Smith, Ph.D.
Flowering Plants.—Dr. Smith writes :—Botanical Survey: Special atten-
tion should be paid te the distribution of vegetation in the Carrs of the District,
which are now the only vestiges of what existed over much of the vale of York.
In the goth Circular will be found a long list of plants by Mr. Foggitt,
of Thirsk.
Mosses and Hepatics.—The Yorkshire Bryological Committee will be
officially represented by Mr. W. Ingham, B.A.
Mr. Ingham writes :—The best ground for these plants is Leckby Carr,
which, although it has been affected by drainage, still produces some rare and
interesting plants. At a visit in 1898, the following were found :—
HEPATICS :—Cephalozia fluitans, C. connivens, Mylia taylort, Loppocolea
heterophylla, and Lophozia ventricosa. i
SPHAGNA :—S. medium, v. roseo-pallescens (very rare), S. cymbifolium v.
glaucescens, S. 1ecurvum Vv. mucronatum, and S. rubellum v. pallescens (very rare).
Mosses :—TZetraphis pellucida in fruit, Déicranella cerviculata, Campylopus
pyriformis in fruit, Hucalypta vulgaris, Webera nutans v. longiseta, Mnium
affine, and Aulacomnium androgynum. The C. fluctans was growing with the
rare Phanerogam, Drosera anglica.
Fungi.—The Yorkshire Mycological Committee will be officially represented
by Messrs. Crossland, F.L.S.,W.N.Cheesman, C. H. Broadhead, and H. C. Hawley.
_ Mr. Crossland writes that several Spring species of Fungi may be found.
There are few or no records for the district.
VERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY.—The Vertebrate Section will be officially
represented by the President, Mr. R. Fortune, F.Z.S., and two of the Secretaries,
Messrs. Booth, M.B.O.U., and Parkin.

i A SE RE
Mr. R. Fortune writes: The District has never been thoroughly worked. |
In Mammalia most of the common species have been noticed, but information is
especially wanted about the Bats and Mice. The Badger occurs, and also the
Otter, and in Baldersby Park is a herd of Fallow Deer.
Birds.—The District is particularly suited for the smaller species. The last
time the Union visited the neighbourhood, 60 species were observed, Warblers and
Tits being very plentiful. The following interesting birds may be expected :—
Tawny, Barn and Long-eared Owls, Kingfisher, Green and Great Spotted Wood-
pecker, Nuthatch, Grasshopper Warbler, etc.
Reptiles and Amphibians.—In this branch there is scope for further investiga-
tion, only two records being available : Common Lizard and Great Crested Newt.
Fishes.—The Swale is very prolific in fish life, especially in those species
known as ‘‘scale” fish. Trout occur, but not abundantly. Grayling are fairly
plentiful, and the curious and rare Burbot is found. The Ten-spined Stickleback
was discovered during the last meeting of the Y.N.U. between Asenbyand Dishforth.
CONCHOLOGY.—The Conchological Section will be officially represented
by its president, Mr. W. Harrison Hutton; its Secretary, W. Denison Roebuck,
F.L.S., and Mr. John W. Taylor.
Land and Freshwater Mollusca.—When the Union visited the District in
May, 1891, and worked the country from Brafferton by Cundall and Leckby Carr
to Asenby they obtained Avion minimus, A. circumscriptus, Limax maximus,
Vitrina, Zonites cellarius, Z. alliartus and var. viridula, Z. nitidulus and Z. purus,
Helix aspersa, H. hortensis, H. hispida, H. cantiana, H. rotundata, Limnea
peregra, Physa hypnorum (commonly in a pond near the Swale at Cundall),
Planorbis spwrorbis, P. umbilicatus, P. contortus, Bythinia tentaculata, Pisidium
pusillum, and P. fontinale. On this occasion it is hoped that attention will be
given to other parts of the area between Yore and Swale, and the main walking
party will alight at Boroughbridge, cross the Yore there and work down the left
bank of that river to its point of confluence with the Swale, and thence up the right
bank of Swale to Brafferton. This part of the District lies outside and south of —
the map given inthe circular. The principal object is to investigate the freshwater
shells of this the only low-lying portion of North-west Yorkshire. It is hoped
that cyclist conchologists will cover more ground and work the ditches, streams,
and ponds about Dishforth, Norton-le-Clay, and the woods and plantations of
Baldersby Park, etc.—W. D. R.
ENTOMOLOGY.—The Entomological Section will be officially represented
by its President, W. Denison Roebuck, F.L.S.
Hymenoptera, Hemiptera, Diptera.—Specimens of these orders collected
should be handed or sent to Mr. Denison Roebuck, and of Orthoptera and Neurop-
tera to Mr. G. Porritt, F.L.S., in all cases with exact notification of locality, etc.
COLEOPTERA.—The Yorkshire Coleoptera Committee will be officially
represented by Mr. M. L. Thompson, F.E.S.
Mr. E. G. Bayford writes :-—-‘‘ The immediate neighbourhood has been visited
several times previously. Two of these excursions furnished interesting lists of
beetles. The first of these to Leckby Carr, on May 18th, 1891, may be found!
described at length with full records in ‘‘ The Naturalist” for that year, pp. 233-
240. The season that year was similar to the present one, exceptionally late, but
in spite of that such uncommon species as Actdota crenata F., Anatts ocellata L.,
Elater balteatus L., and Deporaus betulae L. were met with. The second to Cox-.
wold and Byland, held on the 15th September, 1892, is similarly described in
