(N.B.— Whenever " Glenshesk " is used to indicate locality 



of any particular species, it must be understood as referring 



to the little glens, already mentioned, on road leading from 



Ballycastle to Glenshesk proper). 

 Vltrlna pelluclda, Muller. — Good-sized dead specimens were fairly 



common at Murlough ; and many small living ones in the " pockets " of 



windblown shells at Whitepark. 

 Hyallnia cellarla, Muller.— Common at Murlough, and under stones 



on roadside going towards Glenshesk. Found at Ballintoy by Mr. Welch 



in 1S89. 



Hy. Draparnaudl, Beck.— At Murlough, along with many 

 immature examples, we took a few exceptionally large specimens of this 

 fine shell. Mr. Welch also got it there in 1894. Although not recorded 

 for Antrim in Dr. Scharff's list, this species will probably be found more 

 commonly as research extends. Large adult shells are, in my experience, 

 not very plentiful, and the strong resemblance borne by the immature 

 shell to Hy. cellaria will doubtless account for its being often overlooked 

 by collectors unfamiliar with the differential characteristics of the 

 two species. 



Hy, alllarla, Miller. — Common throughout the district ; at 

 Murlough, Glenshesk, and in the "pockets" at Whitepark, the type and 

 greenish-white var. viridula are about equal in number. Some of our 

 specimens from Murlough bear a strong likeness to Hy. glaber, but Mr. 

 Thomas Rogers, to whom I have shown them, doubts their identity with 

 that species. Rathlin Island (Welch, 1894). 



Hy. nltldula, Drap. — Not uncommon at Murlough. One of my 

 specimens has the last whorl pure white from the point where the 

 second season's growth commences. One fine example of the white var. 

 Hehni occurred on the wall of an old outbuilding near the path leading 

 through the woods. 



Hy. pura. Alder. — We found this species sparingly at Murlough, 

 Glenshesk, and Whitepark, along with the brown var, nitidosa^ -Fer. 



Hy. radlatula, Alder. — This, along with var. viridescenti-alha^ is very 

 common at Murlough, Glenshesk, and in the " pockets " at Whitepark. 

 Mr. Welch took it at Torr Head, south of Murlough, and at Ballintoy, in 

 1889. 



Hy. crystalllna, Muller.— A few at Murlough, and plentifully in the 

 " pockets " at Whitepark. 



Hy. nitlda, Muller. — A very thin and pretty form occurs in a damp 

 spot at foot of some rocks near the footpath at Murlough. 



Hy. fulva, Muller. —A few rather large ones amongst moss-shakings 

 from Murlough and Glenshesk ; common, but dead, in the Whitepark 

 " pockets." 



Arlon ater, L.— Common everywhere. Var. brunnea at Murlough. 

 Thompson does not mention a northern locality for this slug. ' 



A. suOfuscus, Drap.— Three specimens under logs at Murlough. 



A. hortensis, fer. — Two specimens at Murlough.
