i84 PROCEEDINGS COTTESWOLD CLUB 191 1 



Under ivy on wall-tops by canal at Frampton Mansell, where 

 it is abundant. Also in similar situations by Stroud Cemetery, 

 and in the garden of Tower House, Stroud. 



[With regard to the last two species, I have almost invari- 

 ably found the first-named in wet, and the latter in -dry 

 situations]. 



Helicigona lapicida (L.). [Helix lapicida]. Common on 

 beech trees in all the Cotteswold woods and on limestone rocks 

 in the Forest of Dean. 



H. lapicida, var. approaching albina, Menke. Frith Wood, 

 Stroud and Cranham. Very rare. 



H. arbustorum (L.). [Helix arbustoruni]. Amongst rank 

 and moist herbage from the Severn to the Cotteswolds 

 (Jones) . Very widely distributed on limestone soils, but almost 

 always on Nettles. 



H. arbustorum, var. fuscescens, Duchassaing and Michelotti. 

 Usually with the type. 



H. arbustorum, var. cincta, Taylor. On nettles at Ched- 

 worth. 



H. arbustorum, var. luteofasciata, Duch. and Mich. On 

 nettles at Brimscombe. 



H. arbustorum, var. flavescens, Moquin-Tandon. On nettles 

 at Chedworth and Shepscombe. 



Helix aspersa, Miiller. Gardens and hedgerows every- 

 where. 



H. aspersa, var. flammea, Picard. On wall by side of canal, 

 Chalford. In garden of Tower House, Stroud. See pi. xxv., 



fig- 2). 



H. aspersa, var. albescens, Picard. Occasionally by road- 

 sides on the hills. 



H. aspersa, var. albo-fasciata, Jeffreys. Abundant every- 

 where with the type. 



H. aspersa, var. zonata, Moquin-Tandon, Occasionally on 

 the Cotteswold Hills. 



H. aspersa, var. exalbida, Menke. This is a very striking 

 and somewhat scarce form, and although it is fairly widely 

 distributed on the limestone, it is never abundant. I have 

 collected it in a lane below Stroud Cemetery and at the Slad 

 near Stroud. See pi. XXV., fig. i.
