One typical banding only was noted out of a dozen specimens. 

 This small colony was situated on the south end of the Island, 

 where the rocks above high water mark are covered with masses of 

 thick tangled ivy. 



var. coalita Moquin-Tandon. — (12345). One specimen only, 

 Holme Island. Cartmel (J.W.J, and C.H.M.), / of C, vol. 1 1, p. 45. 

 var. albina Moquin-Tandon. — Mr. G. H. Taylor reports that 

 this var. was much more in evidence than either var. lutea or the 

 type in Cartmel and Allithwaite Roads. The following band forms 

 were observed :— 12345, 12345, (12X34)5, (123X45), (12345). 



Ena obscura (Miiller). — Possibly a common shell, hut seem- 

 ingly confined to the wooded parts of the district. On the walls 

 and trees in the Merlewood tract, after heavy rain, the snails were 

 abundant, especially on the moss-covered walls on the west side of 

 Windermere Road. No doubt the animals hibernate deep in the 

 crevices of the walls, and climb to the top in wet weather. They 

 are very difficult to find on the walls, but may be detected by 

 stooping down and silhouetting the stones against the sky, when 

 the shells stand out as conical bits of stone or e.xcrescences of dirt 

 here and there. Eggerslack and Merlewood ; Hampsfell Road ; 

 Low Meathop (J.W.J, and C. H. M.), / of C, vol. 11, p. 45; 

 Humfrey Head, ^August, 1907 (G.H.T.). 



Cochlicopa lubrica (Miiller). — In some places this shell was 

 common, and in Haggs Lane seemed to prefer the tops of the 

 limestone walls, two or three specimens being often taken under 

 a single flat stone, especially if moss-covered, and usually accom- 

 panied by a number of Vallonia costata. Haggs Lane, Cartmel ; 

 Grange Fell Road ; Charney Well Lane ; Low Meathop; Eggerslack

var. liibricoides Ferussac. — Several specimens, Eggerslack 

 Wood, 1903 (J.W.J.). 



Caecilioides acicula (Miiller). — Found in Hampsfell Road, 

 June, 190S (G. H. Gripper). 



Jaminia secale (Draparnaud). — The only locality up to the 

 present where this species has been found is on the limestone rocks 

 of Meathop Fell. It was discovered by one of the party of con- 

 chologists who made an excursion to the Grange district, on 

 Sejiteniber 14th, 1907, viz. Mr. Jackson, who says — "Not common; 

 but weather dry, no doubt it would prove abundant on the cliff- 

 face, &c., in suitable season, judging from the Ingleton habitat. 

 The majority of mine were living, and were in grass roots." Also
