LAND AND FRESHWATER MOLLUSCA OF SCOTLAND 167 



company with a few examples of V, edentula. We have 

 had the opportunity of examining the specimens of both, V. 

 substriata being especially noteworthy as an addition to the 

 South Perthshire list. 



19. SHELLS IN NORTH PERTHSHIRE. Mrs. Carphin 

 sent us single examples of Helix granulata ( = sericed), H. 

 arbustorunt, and Unto margaritifcra, from Dunkeld, and all 

 of them additional records for the vice-county, for which we 

 have now had 52 species placed on record. 



20. THE WHITE VARIETY OF ARION ATER IN KINCAR- 

 DINESHIRE. Although not a new county record, it will be 

 of interest to record that in 1891 I received from Mr. Wm. 

 Duncan, of Montrose, a fine living example of Arion ater 

 var. alba, which he had found on the banks of the North Esk 

 at M Orphic. 



21. UNIOMARGARITIFERAIN BANFFSHIRE. The receipt 

 of an example of the pearl mussel from the river Spey at 

 Aberlour, sent by Mr. Lionel W. Hinxman, of the Geological 

 Survey of Scotland, enables us to add this fine species to our 

 list for Banffshire. Another addition for the same county 

 is Helix rotundata, of which we have specimens collected at 

 Dufftown in November 1892 by Mr. Hinxman. At the 

 same time and place he found the following, which, however, 

 have already been placed on record by himself and other 

 friends: Helix liortensis var. lutca 12345, H. arbustorum, 

 Pupa cylindracea ( = umbilicata), Bulitmis obscurus, Balea 

 perversa, Clausilia perversa ( = ntgosa}, Cochlicdpa lubrica, 

 Arion ater, A. minimus, A. circumscriptus, and Agriolimax 

 agrestis var. sylvatica. 



2 2. ADDITIONAL RECORDS FOR EASTERNESS. A collec- 

 tion of slugs and shells made by Mr. Wm. Evans at Dalwhinnie 

 and received by me on the I7th June 1892 includes three 

 species additional to the vice-county: namely, Arion subfusctis, 

 A. minimus, and Hyalinia fnlva ; the other species sent with 

 them including Arion ater (small), A. circumscriptns ( = bourg- 

 uignati], A. liortensis, Agriolimax agrestis, Hyalinia alliaria, 

 H. radiatula, and CocJilicopa lubrica (very young). The 

 elevation at which they were found was 1200 feet.
