 NOTES ON WILTSHIRE MOLLUSCA. 



P.Y C. P. HURST. 



(Read before the Society, June 9th, 1915). 



The following shells were collected within a five-mile radius of Great 

 Bedwyn, which is near the middle of the eastern border of Wiltshire, 

 not very far from the Wiltshire-Berkshire boundary. The Kennet and 

 Avon Canal passes through Great Bedwyn, which is therefore placed 

 partly in vice-county 7 (North Wilts.) and partly in vice-county 8 

 (South Wilts). I have used the new county boundaries.
