BOTANICAL SECTION At a meeting of the Botanical Section in December, 1955, a new Committee was formed. Its primary purpose is the Organisation and compilation of a new Suffolk Flora to bring the work of Hind up to date. T h e Botanical Society of the British Isles is also engaged on a flora distribution survey of the British Isles, known as the Distribution Maps Scheme and areas are being recorded in 10 Kilometre squares. For this purpose, the D.M. Scheme has issued small printed field cards with a comprehensive list of flora.
