Edwin Bryan, Oliver Emerson and the writer followed the 

 ridge trail. We collected shells on our way up to the backbone. 

 Shelling is not what it used to be, for shells are very scarce in 

 this section of the Koolau Range. We managed to get seven 

 specimens of Achatinella viridans : we considered this a lucky 

 find. While on our way to the backbone, we heard some goats 

 in the valley west of Keawaawa (Kuliouou Ike valley). Mr. 

 Emerson carried a 45-70 caliber rifle, an efficient weapon for

 places; barely enough for one to crawl over, while Grinnell, 

 Antone Gouveia and the writer started east looking for insects 

 and shells. We were not able to find any Achatinella. We 

 traveled a little further on until we came to a grove of banana 

 and here we found the following shells :

We spent about forty minutes collecting and then returned to 

 the main ridge. On our way back we stopped about three 

 hundred feet east of the Kuliouou-Keawaawa ridge and hunted
