The I wenty-Eighth Annual Conference of the Cryptogamio
Society of Scotland was held at Perth on the 29 th September
1903 and two following days. Communications were entered into
beforehand with the Perthshire Society of Natural Science, whose
President, Henry Coates, Esq., and members made all the pre¬
liminary airangements, selecting the localities to be visited, obtain¬
ing permission to enter private grounds, placing their Hall and
interesting Museum at our disposal, and extending to us a cordial
welcome. Without their kind co-operation and assistance the
meeting of the Cryptogamic Society would have been neither so
pleasant in itself nor so fruitful in its results. Several of them
accompanied us on each day’s excursion, and their local knowledge
proved to be of great value. Eor all the interest they showed,
and the trouble they took to render our meeting a success, we
desire to tender to them our hearty thanks.

The first day’s excursion was to Kinnoull Hill, under the
guidance of Mr. James Menzies. Here many interesting species of
fungi were gathered, Mr. Menzies knowing the ground well, and
where the rarer specimens were to be found. On the following
day, by the kind permission of the Proprietor, we visited the
beautiful estate of Invermay, Miss Miles acting as guide. At the
close of the day Mrs. Fraser hospitably entertained us to tea in
the Mansion-House in the absence of her husband, and gave us an
opportunity of inspecting the many fine paintings which it con¬
tains. On the third and last day the woods and policies of
Scone Palace were visited under the guidance of Mr. Alexander
Pitcaithly, to whom we are much indebted. The ground was
found to be excellent for fungi, and the beauty of the locality-
added greatly to ths enjoyment of the excursion. Those who saAv
it will never forget the magnificent group of thirty or forty
