DESCRIPTION OF A NEW VARIETY OF PLANORBIS 

 CARINA TUS MULL. 



By baker HUDSON. 



(Read before the Conchological Society). 



Planorbis carinatus v. albida. 



Form similar to type, but colour pellucid white. 



This variety was taken by me in the mill race Blue- 

 stone Mill, near Norton, co. Durham, on April i8th, 1885. 



At the same place I have met with very pale-coloured 

 specimens oi Limncea peregra, the variety excavata Jeff., of 

 Bythinia tentaculata, and variety albida Rimmer, of the 

 same species.
