238 ASHFORD : LIST OF REDCAR L. & F. W. SHELLS. 



Z. radiatulus Alder. Wilton Wood, sparingly. 



Z. crystal I inus Miill. Copses, green lane to Kirkleatham ; 

 Wilton and Yearby Woods, &c. 



Z. fulvus Miill. Wilton and Yearby Woods; Coatham 

 Whin, associated with crystallinus and punts. 



Helix lamellata Jeff. Wilton Wood, under dead leaves. 

 This new locality supplies another link between Scarborough and 

 Scotland. Mr. J. W. Watson reports it in Airy Holme Wood 

 near Roseberry Topping, and Mr. Sutton quotes three localities 

 in Durham and Northumberland. On the other hand Mr. 

 Whitwham has found it near Huddersfield, thus extending its 

 range southwards. For the encouragement of those Avho have 

 searched long and fruitlessly among holly leaves for this pretty 

 little gem, I may state as my experience that though I have taken 

 dozens I never once met with it among the leaves of that tree, 

 but chiefly under those of the beech and oak and sometimes at 

 the roots of Bryum and other mosses in moist parts of woods. 



H. aculeata Miill. Yearby and Wilton Woods. Occurs 

 sparingly. 



H. aspersa Miill. Especially partial to the Sandhills but 

 not confined to them. I could not find the dwarf form so often 

 occurring near the sea. 



H. nemoralis L. Occurs on the whole range of Sandhills 

 from Marske to mouth of Tees. In one hollow I counted among 

 drifted dead shells 23 varieties of color and markings in three 

 square yards. I met with no instances of van /lorte/isis, nor can 

 Mr. J- W. Watson report it in the district. 



H. hispida L. Extremely abundant on the Sandhills, par- 

 ticularly between Redcar and Marske; less common throughout 

 the neighborhood. 



H. fusca Mont. W^ilton Wood (videy; C, ii. 128). 



J.C. ii., August, 1S79
