1 66 ANNALS OF SCOTTISH NATURAL HISTORY 



included an example of H. pura, one of H. cellaria, a few of 

 H. nitidula, some young Helix rotundata, a CocJilicopa lubrica, 

 and several Vitrina pellucida. Another box of shells collected 

 about Linlithgow on the same date included, in addition to 

 several specimens of the type and a few of the var. albida 

 of Helix iiispida (the shell hitherto known as H. concinna, 

 and so recorded in my former papers), a young H. aspersa, 

 several small Physafontinalis^ several encrusted and blackened 

 examples of Sphcerium contemn, and numerous Limncea 

 peregra, also blackened and encrusted. For the sight of 

 these shells we are indebted to our indefatigable friend Mr. 

 Wm. Evans. 



1 6. VERTIGO PYGM/EA* AND OTHER SHELLS IN FIFE- 

 SHIRE. I have one addition for the Fifeshire list in Vertigo 

 pygmtza, found by Mr. Wm. Evans at Elie, 2Oth June 1891, 

 along with Helix pulchella and Pupa cylindracea { = iunbili- 

 cata). From Mrs. Carphin we have a specimen of the var. 

 maritima of Limncea peregra, albeit not a very characteristic 

 one, which it is of interest to note, although the species 

 has, of course, been authenticated for the county long ago. 



17. ADDITIONAL RECORDS FOR SOUTH PERTH WITH 

 CLACKMANNAN. From Mrs. Carphin we have received two 

 species additional for this area, viz. Planorbis nautilcus var. 

 crista, and A)icylus lacustris, both from Bridge of Allan, a 

 locality which, although, as Mrs. Carphin points out, it is 

 included politically in Stirlingshire, is included in the vice- 

 county of South Perth in Mr. Watson's comital scheme, 

 which we follow. 



From Strathyre we have a couple of examples of CocJili- 

 copa lubrica^ which Mrs. Carphin sent us. This, however, 

 has been added (since the census) by Mr. Evans, and is con- 

 sequently no longer an addition. 



1 8. VERTIGO SUBSTRIATA IN SOUTH PERTHSHIRE.- 

 Mr. Wm. Evans has been so fortunate as to meet with this 

 seldom-detected species on the banks of the Keltic, near 

 Callander, where he found it on the 25th April 1892, in 



1 The Editors remind me that this species was recorded from Elie by Mr. 

 Thomas Scott, F.L.S., so long ago as 1891 ("Scot. Nat.," April 1891, p. 50), 

 but as the specimen in question has not been seen by the Society's referees, 

 it does not come within the scope of this paper.
