H. granulata (Alder). [Helix sericea]. On banks of canal 

 near Sapperton and on Yellow Iris near the canal, Chalford 

 (Jones) ; bog near Woodlands, Stroud ; side of Cainscross 

 Brewery Pond ; Kingstanley ; and near Nailsworth — usually 

 in very wet places. 



H. granulata, var. cornea, Jeffreys. Kingstanley ; and 

 Horsley. 



H. hispida (L.). [Helix hispida var concinna]. Under 

 stones and dead leaves. Common everywhere. Large examples 

 on beech trunks in Randwick Wood. 



H. rufescens, var. hispidosa, Mousson. [Helix hispida]. 

 Common with last, but prefers damper situations. 



H. hispida, var. albo-cincta, Taylor. By side of canal near 

 Chalford ; in garden of Tower House, Stroud. 



H. hispida, var. albida, Jeffreys. Occasionally with type. 



H. hispida, var. nana, Jeffreys. On grass on Swift's Hill. 



H. rufescens (Pennant). [Helix rufescens]. In beech 

 woods ; under stones and rubbish ; common. 



H. rufescens, var. rubens, Moquin-Tandon. With type 

 everywhere.

 tributed. 



Acanthinula aculeata (Miiller). [Helix aculeata]. Over, 

 near Gloucester, in moss and upon decaying willow twigs 

 (Jones) ; Tortworth, in moss — rare (Jones ; Hockley Hill, 

 Elmore (V. W. G. in Jones) ; Worgan's Wood, Slad, on dead 

 wet beech leaves ; also Randwick Wood and Frocester Hill 

 under similar conditions — common. The rarity stated by 

 Jones is, I think, more apparent than real, the shell being 

 frequently covered with dirt and easily overlooked. 



Vallonia pulchella (Miiller). [Helix pulchella]. Over, near 

 Gloucester, and Lassington in moss (Jones) ; amongst decaying 

 beech leaves of Cotteswold Woods (Jones) ; in very wet moss
