CONCHOLOGY.— This section will be officially represented by Mr. J. E.- 

 Crowther, President, and Rev. T. Ainsworth Erode, B.A., Secretary. 



The Rev. T. Ainsworth Erode, B.A., writes that his experience of the district 

 round Coxwold, gained through three or four summer holidays spent at Kilbum and 

 many various \-isits at other times to Roulston Scar, tends to the conclusion that it 

 is not ver}- rich in shells. Yet it is possible that better results may be recorded 

 when the locality is more thoroughly worked by a numerous band of experienced 

 naturalists. Looking through his private record of captures he notes the follow- 

 ing : — Hyaliiiia cena7-ia var. albina and Hy. glabra (Roulston Scar) ; Helix 

 lapicida, two dead specimens in a hedge bank between Kilbum village and the 

 Scar ; Helix aspe7-sa in abundance, with a specimen of var. exalbida in crevices of 

 stone walls; Helix iic7no7-aiis in great profusion and almost endless variety of 

 banding (Snape Quarr)-). In the latter p'ace he found Biili>iiin7is obscurus fairly 

 common. Helix arbustorzmi very abundant, together with \zr.Jlavesce7is (Roulston 

 Scar, top terrace, just under summit); Helix caperata. a small form (foot of Roul- 

 ston); Pupa cyli77dracea (High Ivilbum); Clausilia bide/ita/a and C. Ia7ninata var. 

 pelhccida fairly abundant under boulders (Roulston Scar). He has not taken any 

 aquatic species in this neighboiu-hood.
