wouth horseshoe-shaped, furnished with 7 or 8 denticles of a reddish

It lives amongst moss and leaves in moist situations. 
It is local in Scotland, the north of England, Ireland, the 
Channel Isles, and Anglesea. Mr. Roebuck once pointed 
out that it has a great partiality for the moss, hypnum 
cuspidatum, and my own experience has enabled me to 
confirm this. 
Young specimens are carinated and furnished with in- 
ternal septa which are visible from the outside. 
Var. pallida ( Jef:). Whitish.

shoe-shaped, with a broad white lip; a denticle on the base of the

This is a very abundant and common species through- 
out the British Isles on stone walls, among moss, dead 
leaves, and under the bark of trees. The young are 
carinated and have a well-marked umbilicus. Infant 
shells may be observed carried about by adults, presum- 
ably their mothers.
