104 ANNALS OF SCOTTISH NATURAL HISTORY 



Amongst the Bucrina brought into Aberdeen is sometimes 

 an albino specimen. I see no reason why this form should 

 not be called var. " alba" the same as other white varieties. 



TROPHON TRUNCATUS (Str.}, var. ALBA, Jeff. Found in deep water 

 off Aberdeen. 



Fusus ANTIQUUS (Z.), var. ALBA, Jeff. Brought in occasionally, 

 from deep water, by trawlers. Var. VENTRICOSA, Jeff. This 

 variety appears to be not uncommon in the deep channel 

 between the "Long Forties" and "Fisher Bank." 



Fusus NORVEGICUS (Chem.}. Two damaged specimens found by 

 Mr. Sim, A.L.S., in January 1893. Since that time a large 

 number have been brought into Aberdeen. They appear to be 

 principally found from 80 to 100 miles off. 



Fusus TURTONI, Bean. A fine live specimen was obtained by me 

 in 1892, while on board a trawler fishing 70 miles east of 

 Aberdeen in 40 fathoms. Others have been brought in, but 

 none of them nearer the shore than the one just mentioned. 



Fusus GRACILIS (Da C.), var. CONVOLUTA, Jeff. Dead shells on 

 rare occasions on line-boats. 



NASSA INCRASSATA (Str.}, var. MINOR, Jeff. Very abundant below 

 stones between tide-mark all along our coast. 



COLUMBELLA NANA (Lov.}. One found by me in 1888, another by 

 Mr. Kelly in 1892, and a third by me in 1893. The last one 

 was found on a trawl-boat which had been fishing about 30 

 miles off Peterhead. 



PLEUROTOMA NEBULA (Mont.}, var. ELONGATA, Jeff. Dead shells 

 sometimes brought in from off Rattray Head. 



PLEUROTOMA RUFA (Mont.}, var. LACTEA, Jeff. Several dead 

 specimens from the beach at St. Fergus. 



UTRICULUS OBTUSUS (Mont.}. A few dead specimens from shell 

 sand collected near Girdleness. 



SCAPHANDER LIGNARIUS (Z.), var. ALBA, Jeff. One found by 

 Mr. Kelly on board a trawl-boat which had been at work upon 

 the "Aberdeen Bank." This fishing-ground lies about 20 

 miles from shore. 



PHILINE CATENA (Mont.}. Several, dead: from shell sand at 

 Aberdeen. 



PHILINE NITIDA, Jeff. One, alive : found by Dr. Chester of South- 

 port amongst some Laminarian roots sent by me in 1893.
