(*) An asterisk against names of species denotes that specimens of these
species are in the upright part of Case A and preserved in spirit.
[Sidenote: Upright Table-Cases A and B, at south end of Shell Gallery.]
From a casual glance at the contents of these cases, it might be
supposed that many of the specimens exhibited therein were seaweeds; but
a closer inspection, especially with a lens, will reveal structure of a
kind not to be found in any plant.
Let us select for examination _Flustra foliacea_, the Broad-leaved
Hornwrack or Sea-Mat (Fig. 1), (Case A 1), commonly to be found among
heaps of seaweed cast up on sandy shores round our coasts.
