It will be seen from the above list that the total number of species 
is ninety-nine. 
[We commend the above list to the notice of working Naturalists, 
and shall be glad to receive any additions to it, or fresh localities for 
the rare species from other workers in the county. We should be 
glad, too, to publish similar lists of the shells of other counties. 
The best work by far on the subject is Dr. Gwyn Jeffrey's British 
Conchology, Vol. I., (sold separately,) Land and Freshwater Shells, 
Van Voorst, 10s. In this work 121 species are described as inhabiting 
the British Isles, so that the county of Nottingham appears to be 
well represented by the ninety-nine species above recorded.—
