I know no other locality so rich species as the Hebden Bridge 
localities, but bullions rich in G. vefzculatum occur in the Dane 
Valley and below Morredge, near Leek. In both localities I 
estimate the bed to be about 250 feet below the Kinderscout Grit. 
Glyphioceras bilingue is a much rarer shell. It appears in 
the Pendleside series, for the first time, only some little way 
above the Poszdonomya bechert zone. 
In the North Staffordshire district I have obtained it from 
Shales in contact with the red rock fault, River Dane East of the 
Railway Viaduct, and in the River Dove at the foot of Park Hill, 
where it occurs with Chaenocardiola foottt. 1 also obtained it 
in the banks of the stream at Wildmoor Bank Hollow, off the 
Macclesfield and Buxton Road. Here its position is apparently 
below the Kinderscout Grit.

There are apparently different ways of studying nature. Judging from 
a report in the Hudl Daily Mail, ‘fifty of the senior scholars attending the 
National School,’ at an East Riding village, ‘had their final, and most 
enjoyable, ramble of the season.’ After noting the flowers, birds and insects, 
‘a move was made to St. Augustine’s Stone . . . and each scholar possessed 
himself of a small specimen of the rock . . . prayers brought the ramble to 
a close’—prayers for the preservation of objects of natural beauty, we 
presume ! 
At a recent meeting of the Lancashire and Cheshire Entomological 
Society, Mr. W. Mansbridge read a paper entitled ‘ Notes ona Melanic Race 
of Agrotis ashworthii, and exhibited a long series of moths bred in 1905 in 
illustration of his remarks. Mr. Mansbridge reviewed the evidence for and 
against the view that A. ashworthii and A. candelarum are the same species, 
and suggested the name subsfriafa to distinguish the new form. The 
opinion of the meeting was to the effect that more evidence of identity was 
required, especially as regards early stages and structural details of 
candelarum.
