BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE 



LAND AND FRESHWATER MOLLUSCA OF THE 



COUNTY OF SUSSEX. 



By WILLIAM DENISON ROEBUCK. 



It is proposed from time to time to issue County Biblio- 

 graphies of conchological literature, and it would seem a fitting 

 choice to commence with Sussex, on the occasion of inserting 

 Mr. Jeffery's list of West Sussex shells. This bibliography does 

 not by any means pretend to be complete, and the compiler 

 would be pleased to receive additional citations for publication 

 in the Journal. He has to acknowledge the assistance of Messrs. 

 F. C. S. Roper, F.Iy.S., of Eastbourne, and W. Jeffery of Ratham, 

 Chichester, also of the Secretary of the Eastbourne Natural 

 History Society.
