THE NAUTILUS. 55 



25 diam. Largest red colored forms were found on Andrews but our 

 stay was short and we found but few. Tliis variety is more often 

 toothed than normalis. In some localities 43 per cent, had teeth on 

 the parietal wall. About ^ are banded. On one slope of Mirey 

 Ridge all were white, upon another all half and half, and upon 

 another a fourth were red, the others white and banded. Upon 

 Clingman and Andrews the choice "rediis " were the most common. 

 This variety furnishes the most entertainment and has caused more 

 shouting and singing and expressions of joy and perplexity of any in 

 the Smokies.

 assee Ford.

This is the most variable shell of this region. At Cade's the meas- 

 urements were 16 to 18 mm. diam. All dentate, all hirsute, large flar- 

 ing lip and a few were albinos. The same measurements prevailed 

 at Block House. On Clingman they dropped back to 13 and 14 

 diam. and some were not toothed or hirsute and cpiite globose, with 

 narrow lip. At Welsh Bald we found part of both. At Tuskeegee 

 and Cheowah all were small and only partially dentate or hirsute. 

 Ascending Mt. Hayo, we again found the 13 mm. variety up the 

 sides and at the top. Two miles further we found on Bobs Bald a 

 large variety I first supposed to be ferrissii. It was not hirsute, but 

 deeply sculptured and 2 or 3 were dentate. 23 mm. On our return 

 to Cade's in Brannon's Cove, we again found the small globose form, 

 the smallest being only 12 mm.
