words 'species of corallina' were altered to 'Nullipora', and 'what I call Corallinas inarticulata ' to 'the encrusting Nulliporae'. Specimen 3503 was included in a shipment of Beagle corallines sent to William Henry Harvey for examination in April 1847, again described by CD as a Nullipora. As explained in Plant Notes pp. 186-206 Nullipora is in fact a symbiotic coralline alga Bossea oribigniana (Decaisne ex Harvey) Manza. See also Correspondence 4:29 and Phillip R.

. The coralline algae were given by CD in the 1840s to the Irish botanist William Henry Harvey at Trinity College, Dublin, in whose herbarium they remain. Those of CD's specimens that Duncan Porter was able to examine have been noted here, together with his identifications. The list of mammals was drawn up as the unpublished notes on Animals in CUL MS DAR [page] 319 Specimen List

. * William Henry Harvey was descended from a Quaker family of Youghal, and was born in February, 1811, at Summerville, a country house on the banks of the Shannon. He died at Torquay in 1866. In 1835, Harvey went to Africa (Table Bay) to pursue his botanical studies, the results of which were given in his 'Genera of South African Plants.' In 1838, ill-health compelled him to obtain leave of absence, and return to England for a time; in 1840 he returned to Cape Town, to be again compelled by illness

The case of the bear has had quite a history. To Lyell, Darwin wrote, 1 September 1860 (L. L., 2, 336): 'Observe, that in my wretched Polar Bear case, I do show the first step by which conversion into a whale would be easy , would offer no difficulty !!'

As it offended persons, I struck it

first part discusses the plants listed in Darwin's Plant Notes, prepared for Henslow, who was to identify the dried specimens. These are mostly vascular plants, ferns and flowering plants. The second part enumerates the algae, particularly the corallines, in which Darwin was keenly interested. Notes on the corallines were prepared by Darwin for the Irish botanist William Henry Harvey. The third part discusses the plants preserved in spirits; the majority of these are fungi. There is abundant

Coralline and Other Algae When publishing on Darwin's coralline algae collected on the voyage of the Beagle, the Irish botanist William Henry Harvey (1811 66, Curator of the Herbarium, Trinity College, Dublin) quoted several extracts from Darwin's notes on them. These extracts differ from the field notes on the same collections given in the Zoological Diary. Harvey (1847: vii viii) acknowledged Darwin, 'for the liberal donation to our Herbarium of all those [i.e., coralline algae] which he
