 Segmentina nitida. 



Elginshire, a few on tablet in the Elgin Museum, which Mr H. 



B. Mackintosh was good enough to send me for inspection. 

 The known range of this species in Britain, which has never 



been authenticated from localities further north than Yorkshire 



and Lancashire, and has not been reported in Scotland except 



for Roxburghshire, makes the interest of this record very great ; 



Mr Mackintosh assures me that the specimens seen by us from 



the museum were of the Elginshire series of Dr Gordon's 



collecting ; the specimens on the tablet are old, and some of 



them have been accidentally destroyed.

Near Elgin, several (G. Gordon ; also Elgin Museum,
