Fossil: Raised Beach, Portland, Prestwich. 
Mr. Gwyn Jeffreys says: ‘‘I have examined the shells and 
washed shell-sand from the Raised Beach of Portland 
collected by Mr. (Sir Joseph) Prestwich. The shells are 
rather northern than southern, but I have not detected any 
peculiarly arctic species, and certainly none of a Mediter- 
ranean or Lusitanian type. All the species inhabit the 
British coast from Shetland to Yorkshire except one, which 
I consider to be undescribed, and whick I propose to name 
Rissoa subcylindracata. 
Mr. E. R. Sykes suggests that this shell is a form of Rissoa 
albella (Lovén.)
