In June, 1848, when the island was visited by my friend Mr. 

 John Alacgillivray, in H.M.S. Rattlesnake, he only records two 

 species Bu!i.:ius Tuckeri d,\\<± Pupiiia Thoiiisoni. 



^Vl^en I visited the island in December, 1S71, with the 

 Australian Eclipse Expedition, I obtained at or near the watering 

 place on the west side of the island 7 species of Helix ^ i Heli- 

 carior. 2 of Pupa, i Diplommatina, i Lcptopoma^ 2 of Bitlimiis 

 (including Ttickeri), i Ditropis, i Georissa (these two are forms 

 quite neu- to Australia), and i Tnuicafella. I now add 3 species 

 of Melanipiis, i of PytJiia and i of Cassidtila, which I collected 

 in one day, during my second visit o^w June 6th, 1S75, though 

 only on the island for a few hours. I also obtained another species 

 of Helix, making", with the Land and Amphibious species, the 

 total of 24. They are as follow^ : — 



1. Helix Macgillivrayi, Forl\'s, Voyage of H.M.S. Rattle- 



snake, vol. ii, p. 377, plate 3, fig. r. 



Found on the trunks and limbs of trees in tlie valleys, 

 at an elevation of 456 feet above sea level. 



The type specimens were found by Mr. Macgillivray on 

 the Frankland Islands, some three miles south of Fitzroy. 

 Only a few months back my friend Mr. C. E. Beddome 

 obtained specimens on the mainland, 28 miles inland from 

 Cardwell, Rockingham Bay, at an altitude of 3,500 feet. 



2. Helix Franklandiensis, Forbes, Voyage of H.M.S. Rattle- 



snake, vol. ii., p. 372, plate ii, fig. 2 a.b. 



Found under decayed wood at the roots of trees in 

 the valleys, at 300 feet. 



Also collected by ]\Ir. Macgillivray, at (he Frankland 

 Islands. Cardwell, Rockingham Bay, in the bushes under 

 leaves (Mr. C. E. Beddome).
