46 COLLIER : EXCURSION TO THE WEST OF IRELAND. 
H. itala var. leucozona Moq.—Fairly common, some of 
them very dark. 
H. caperata Mont.—One specimen only on an old wall near 
the coast-guard station. 
Buliminus obscurus Miill.—One only. 
Pupa cylindracea Da Costa. — Very common and very 
generally distributed. 
Pupa cylindracea var. curta West.—A few amongst the 
type. 
P. muscorum IL.—Common, under stones on the road-side 
on the way to Black Head. 
Balea perversa L.—A few only. 
Clausilia perversa Pult.-- Fairly common on walls and 
under large stones. 
Limneea peregra Mill. v. maritima Jeff.—The only fresh- 
water shell we got. Plentiful on wet rocks by the road- 
side near Black Head. This answers exactly to the 
description given by Jeffreys, and is a very thick solid 
shell, with suture very deep and spire produced. A few 
of my specimens are rather larger than the one figured by 
Taylor (Journ. of Conch., vol. vi. p. 297). 
On our return, we went by car from Galway to Westport, 
via Clifden, where we stayed one day, intending to go down to 
Dogs’ Bay, near Roundstone, for some of the thick-shelled (semi- 
fossil) A. zemoralis from the sand-hills there, but the weather 
turned out so very bad we had to give it up, and we were 
weather-bound in the hotel all day, and the following day got 
thoroughly drenched in our forty miles drive to Westport. 
Since writing the above, I have received about 150 more 
Helix nemoralis from Ballyvaughan, quite as variable as those 
I got myself, but amongst them was one specimen of var. 
major ¥Fér., measuring 21 mill. in height and 29 mill. in 
breadth, of a reddish colour 00345 with the bands half-effaced.
