sure that others of them will yet be added to our list, and it will be 

 interesting to know that they still exist in the Midland Counties. 



I may add, in conclusion, that one variety, Planorhis glaber var 

 compressa, described by Mr. R. M. Lloyd in the first number of this 

 Journal (p 7), is not inckided in the list, the locality from whence it 

 came not being known. It was bred in an aquarium, to which it was 

 brought on weed in its ovoid or very young state. 



It will only be doing bare justice to Mr. Nelson to say that during 

 his residence in Birmingham, extending over a period of niue years, 

 he worked actively and peiseveringly in collecting the Mollusca of 

 Birmingham, and to him is due the addition of many species and 

 varieties which, but for his love of the science of Conchology, would 

 have been unrecorded to this day.
