LIST OF SPEAKERS At a recent council meeting it was agreed that it would be a good idea to compile a list of members who are willing to talk at meetings of natural history societies, schools and the like about general or specific topics in mycology. The list would then be circulated to head offices of education authorities and national societies or would be available from the BMS. Would anyone wishing to have their name included please write directly to Peter Jeffries, Biological Laboratory, University of Kent, Canterbury , Kent. Please indicate in one sentence the appropriate topics that you could talk about to an audience of laymen .

FUNGUS RECORDING A PROVISIONAL CENSUS CATALOGUE OF BRITISH GASTEROMYCETES Bruce Ing Rather than a bald progress report on the Society's Gasteromycete Recording Scheme we are providing the following annotated list of species together with the Watsonian vice-counties from which records have so far come to light. The information is now stored on card index with a view to producing distribution maps when sufficient new records have been received . Provisional maps will be available by the end of 1984 but will not be published . In the list that follows nomenclature largely follows the recent key by Demoulin and Marr iott in the Bulletin (15 (1981) 37-56 - now available as a separate). To save space author citations are omitted. Species are listed from those vice-eounties for which acceptable records have been received. Numbers in brackets refer to doubtful records which have not been ~s cru tin ise d in detail - most will probably be discarded . Species preceded by ? are doubtfully British although they have been reported ; most are likely to have been misidentifications. Species preceded by * are almost certainly introduced with garden or hothouse plants and are unlikely to be regular members of our flora. Species preceded by t are additions to the list in the introduction to the scheme or to the Key. Also provided here is a list of the vice-eounties and the number of gasterornycete species so far recorded from them. Th is reveals the areas from which more collections are needed , especially Ireland, Wales and much of Scotland. Records from Lincolnshire and Cornwall have still to be incorporated. Members are invited to contribute records, and where necessary specimens, as detailed in the Bulletin, 15 (1981) 16-18, and send them to Dr Bruce Ing, Department of Biology, Chester College, Cheyney Road, Chester CHI 4BJ.
