Lanp SHELLS or LINCOLNSHIRE.—Dear Sir,—You were kind 
enough to insert my list of North Lincoln land shells this 
month, but omitted to name my station, Brigg, and as the list

Freshwater Mollusca of Lincolnshire,’ which appeared in this journal 
for August and September 1887, pp. 245-272, I was unaware of the
