LAND AND FRESHWATER MOLLUSCA OF SCOTLAND 153 



additions to the vice-county of Mid-Ebudes. These are Hyalinia 

 crystalline!, H. nitida, If. fnlva, and Carychium minimum, of each of 

 which one or more examples were found. Vitrina pellitdda, Hya- 

 linia alliaria, Helix rotundata, Pupa cylindracea, and Clausilia 

 perversa also occurred at the same time. The Mid-Ebudes list now 

 amounts to 24 species, so that it is evident that further visits to 

 Mull, Coll, Tiree, Staffa, and lona ought to result in very consider- 

 able augmentation of our list. 



6 1. SHELLS FOUND AT KILLIN. Although there are no fresh 

 records for Mid-Perth among them, it may be well to place on 

 record that Mr. Alexander Shaw collected Hyalinia alliaria, H. 

 nitidula, H. fulva, H. crystallina, Helix Iiispida, H. rotundata, Pupa 

 cylindracea, Clausilia perversa, Cochlicopa lubrica, and Carychiuui 

 minimum, at Killin, at the head of Loch Tay. 



62. ADDITIONAL RECORDS FOR THE OUTER HEBRIDES. To 

 another old friend and supporter, Mr. Thomas Scott, F.L.S., of 

 Leith, we are indebted for a few shells collected on the islands of 

 Barra and North Uist, in May of last year, 1894. Those from 

 the former island were collected in Sinclair Loch, on the loth of 

 May 1894 ; they include a small example of Limncca truncatula, 

 single specimens of Planorlns nautileus and of var. crista, and of 

 PL pawns, and a number of Pisidium pusillum all species which 

 have not before been authenticated from the Outer Hebrides, and 

 there were also three examples of Limncca peregra var. ovata. The 

 North Uist shells were collected in a stream running out of Loch 

 Fada, on the 24th of May; they include an example or two of 

 Limncea peregra var. ovata, as well as a couple of species additional 

 to our records, Pisidium pusillum and Ancylus fluviatilis, of each 

 of which a number of examples were collected. With these additions, 

 the Outer Hebridean list now includes 22 species, a number to which 

 it is devoutly to be wished that further additions may be made, as 

 the result of careful and systematic further research. 



63. ADDITIONS TO THE MAIN ARGYLESHIRE LIST. It is to the 

 acumen and diligence of our old and faithful friend, Mr. William 

 Evans, F.R.S.E., that we are indebted for a most important con- 

 signment of molluscs collected in April 1894 in the neighbourhood 

 of Oban, the 39 species sent by him including no less than 12 

 additions to the authenticated records for Main Argyleshire, bringing 

 up its total to 49 species. The 12 additions are Limax margin- 

 atus ( = arborum}, of which several small ones were sent alive, Helix 

 hortensis var. lutea 12345 (i adult), H. pygmcca (i), Hyalinia 

 nitida (several), H. excarata (a few), Vertigo pygmcca (r), Snccinea 

 putris (several), S. elcgans (i), Limncea truncatula (a few), Planorlns 

 parvus (several, small), Pisidium fontinale ( \ ), and P. pusillum (a 

 few). We also received at the same time a few Arion hortensis,
