Excerpt from The British Freshwater Rhizopoda and Heliozoa, Vol. 3 IN the preparation of the third volume of this work on British Freshwater Rhizopoda, unfortunately left unfinished by the late James Cash, the descriptions in his ms., kindly placed at my disposal, have been utilized so far as possible; his note-books have been searched for records of localities, which are given with his name appended; and such of his drawings as were suitable have been reproduced. Several draw ings kindly supplied by Prof. G. S. West are also given, and in a few instances the published figures of species by their authors are reproduced; the remain ing drawings were made by myself from either living or mounted specimens. In the time at my disposal it was not possible to obtain records from all parts of the British Isles, but owing to the kindness of friends much material was examined from districts which I was unable to visit. In some cases the gatherings of sphagnum and moss and the squeezings were numerous and representative of considerable areas, and my thanks for such are especially due to the following: the late William West, from whom were received about forty tubes of material from the north of Scotland, the Hebrides, the Orkneys, and the Shetland Islands, also about twenty tubes of material collected in the Scilly Islands, Cornwall, Devonshire, and the New Forest; James Saunders.
