ANNUAL REPORT OF THE LEEDS BRANCH. 



Ten meetings have been held during the year. Four in the field, viz., at Agbrig 

 in April ; Kirkstall to Calverley in May ; a second visit to Agbrig in June ; and 

 at Collingham Bridge in September. Six meetings have been held indoors : three 

 in the University, Leeds, and three at Bradford. 



One meeting was given up to an exhibition of mollusca to show variation in 

 species ; while a second meeting was devoted to a general display of mollusca. 



Three papers were read during the session : one by Mr. A. Hartley on the 

 genus Placostyliis ; a paper was given by the President, Mr. J. A. Hargreaves, on 

 his experiences as a collector during the past thirty years. His reminiscences of 

 collectors he had met or corresponded with, and his varied experiences in exchang- 

 ing specimens, were amongst the very many phases dealt with. A third paper 

 was read by Mr. J. F. Musham on Some Species of the Genus Vivipara. 



The exhibits at the winter meetings have been many and varied. One exhibit 

 was of special interest — that of our member, Lieut. C. T. Cribb, collected in the 

 few leisured hours available during the trying conditions of military life in the dis- 

 trict of Audruicq, Pas-de-Calais. Mr. J. W. Taylor has written a full report of 

 this collection. 



The I2th October, 1916, being the fortieth anniversary of the birth of the 

 Conchological Society of Great Britain and Ireland, Mr. W. Denison Roebuck 

 commemorated the event by having reprints from a photograph taken in 1899 of 

 the four founders and presenting to each member a copy. 



Our membership is twenty-four, with three corresponding members. Mr. J. A. 

 Hargreaves is our President.
