Near Roy Cove. 



On the discovery of this interesting little snail Mr. Vallen- 

 tin writes, under date 22nd May, 1910: — 



" I send herewith what I take to be a rather good find, 

 viz., a terrestrial nioUusk. Mrs. Vallentin and I were 

 collecting in the camp some few days ago, and from a clump 

 of damp moss removed from a hillside swamp her sharp eyes 

 detected what at first seemed to be a seed-capsule or fruit of 

 a moss ; but examination with a pocket-lens at once showed 

 the real nature of our find, and stimulated closer search. 

 After much hard work we eventually bagged six specimens. 

 The animal is very shy, black in colour, and its foot does not 

 jnotrude beyond the niaigiu of the shell when crawling.''^
