198 STANDEN : MOLLUSCA OF PORTSALON. 



A. circumscriptus Johnst. — Common at Portsalon and 



Kinny Lough. Readily distinguished from A. hortensis 



by its white foot. 

 Limax maximus L. — Solitary specimens on moss-covered 



tree stumps at Portsalon. The largest specimen found, 



when fully extended, measured 126 millimeters, and was 



a great beauty. 

 L. marginatus Miiller. — Extremely abundant in all stages 



of growth in tufts of moss {^Orthotrichuin phyllanihemum) 



on the trees in a plantation behind the hotel, Portsalon. 

 Agriolimax agrestis L. — Very abundant and exhibiting 



much variation in colour. 

 A. laevis Miiller. — Occurs at Portsalon, Kinny Lough, and 



Fahan. Only three found, and those all under decayed 



wood in damp places. 

 Amalia sowerbyi Fei. — One specimen under a stone at 



Kinny Lough. 

 Helix pygmaea Drap. — Not uncommon amongst moss at 



Portsalon and Kinny Lough. 

 Helix rotundata Miiller. — Strangely enough this common 



shell was found only at Kinny Lough, where it was very 



plentiful and prettily marked. 

 *H. pulchella Miiller. — Extremely common in the golf-links 



rejectamenta at Portsalon. The ribbed variety is absent. 



It is rather remarkable that although I have collected 



the species in numerous localities I have never yet taken 



type and variety costata in company ! 

 *H. aculeata Miiller. — Amongst moss-shakings, Kinny Lough, 



rare. 

 H. hispida L. — Very common under stones and amongst 



nettles at Portsalon, Kinny Lough, and in Fahan burial- 

 ground, along with variety concinna Jeff. 

 H. rufescens Penn. — Kinny Lough. Not at all common, 



but showing great contrasts of colour.
