Abstract
THE Journal Botany for March contains the conclusion of Mr. T. Hick's valuable paper on protoplasmic continuity in the Florideæ. In quite a number of distinct genera belonging to this class he has now traced connecting threads between the protoplasm from cell to cell. He regards these threads as permanent and essential structures, normally present in all parts of the thallus from the oldest to the youngest, not restricted to special localities and special cells.—Some details of the life-history of a rare and little-known British plant, Lithospermum purpureocæruleum, are contributed by Mr. Jas. W. White.
