quantities of the dung preserved in peaty silt (Hinton, Q.J.G.S., 

 68, 1912, p. 249; Warren, ibid., p. 213, and 71, p. 175, 1916). 



Derbyshire. Langwifh Cave, near Mansfield. 



Two or three examples of m^ and ni- were referred by me to 

 D. henseli (Mullins, Derbyshire Archseol. and N.H. Soc. Journ., 

 1913, p. 15 of reprint). 



Herefordshire. Merlin's Cave, Wye Valley, near Symond's Yat. 



Four skull fragments with m^ and inr in place seem to be refer- 

 able to this species and not to D. gulielmi, which occurs so 

 abundantly in this cave (Hinton, Proc. Bristol. Univ. Spelaeol. 

 Soc, 2, p. 157, 1925). 



Bristol University Spelceological Society's Museum. 



A fragmentary right mandibular ramus from a Pleistocene 

 deposit at Corstorphine, west of Edinburgh, determined by E. T. 

 Newton as Dicrostonyx sp., has been recorded by W. Evans (Scott. 

 Nat., 1913, p. 97). 



B. IRELAND. 



Co. Clare. Doneraile Cave. 



Several fragmentary palates and numerous mandibular rami. 



Dublin Museum. 



C. CHANNEL ISLANDS. 



Jersey. La Cotte de St. Brelade. 



A palate and a number of mandibular rami indicating at least 

 fifteen individuals (Hinton, Soci6te Jersiaise Bull. Ann., 43, 1918, 

 p. 355). 



D. CONTINENTAL EUROPE. 



Northern France. Manbeuge ; fissure deposit. 



Fragmentary skulls and lower jaws described and figured, under 

 the name Myodes torquatus, by G. Dubois (Ann. Soc. Geolog. du 

 Nord, 44, p. 69, 1919). The figures of the upper molars indicate 

 that the species represented by these remains is D. henseli. 



Cambrai ; " dans un sable situe a la base de Vergeron." Remains 

 described by G. Dubois (Ann. Soc. Geolog. du Nord, 44, p. 95, 

 1919) ; probably referable to D. henseli. 



South Germany. Wurttemberg, Kleine Scheuer. 



Numerous palates and several mandibular rami; lent by Dr. 

 Frank Corner. 

 Saxony, Quedlinburg. 



The skull and other remains described by Hensel (Zeitschr. 

 deutsch. geol. Gesellsch., 7, p. 493). 



Remains of Dicrostonyx have been recorded chiefly by Nehring 

 and Woldrich from a great many late Pleistocene deposits on 

 the Continent, but in the absence of material I am unable to 

 determine the species. A nearly perfect skull from Eppelsheira, 

 near Darmstadt, mentioned by Blackmore and Alston (P.Z.S., 

 1874, p. 470) as being in the British Museum was accidentally 

 destroyed many years ago; the mandibute which remain are 

 insufficient for specific determination.
