Odostomia insculpta, Montagu.

 examination — Hyndman. 

 Odostomia obllqua, Alder. 



" Two specimens obtained from sbell sand collected at Bundoran by Mrs. 

 Hancock " — Tbompson. 

 Odostomia Warreni, Thompson. 



"A specimen from Bundoran, Mrs. Hancock" — Tbompson {sub Rissoa 

 Warrenii). Turbot Bank, Mr. Waller— Hyndman. In tbe body of Jeffreys' 

 " Britisb Concbology" it appeal's as 0. obliqua var. Warreni, but in tbe 

 Supplement to tbat work it is restored to tbe rank of a species. It was first 

 described by Mr. Thompson in tbe " Annals of Natural History," from 

 specimens found at Portmarnock by Mr. T. W. Warren, an assiduous Irish 

 concbologist, in wbose honour Mr. Thompson named it as above. 

 Odostomia decussata, Montagu. 



This beautiful little shell has been found in Turbot Bank sand by Mr. 

 Jeffreys. Specimens labelled "Co. Antrim" are in the Belfast Museum 

 Collection. 

 Odostomia indistincta, Montagu. 



Bundoran, Mrs. Hancock— Thompson. On tbe Turbot Bank on several 

 occasions— Hyndman. In Strangford Lough and the channel adjoining, very 

 rare — Dickie. (All sub Chemnitzia indistincta). 

 Odostomia interstincta, Montagu. 



It would appear to be of common occurrence in the Turbot bank shell sand 

 (Chemnitzia interstincta), but is not noted elsewhere. A widely distributed 

 and common species generally. 

 Odostomia spiralis, Montagu. 



" Very sparingly, in shell sand collected at Magilligan by Miss Moody" — 

 Thompson. Common on the Turbot Bank — Hyndman. Entrance to Strang- 

 ford Lough, 12-15 fathoms, very rare— Dickie. 



Odostomia excavata, Philippi. 



' ' Bundoran, Mr. Warren ' ' —Thompson (sub Rissoa Harveyi) . Turbot 

 Bank, Mr. Waller — Hyndman. Mr. Thompson named it It. Harveyi in 

 honour of Dr. W. H. Harvey, who discovered tbe first Britisb examples, in 

 Co. Clare ; Dr. Harvey had previously named it Cingula sculpta. Both these 

 proved to be subsequent to Philippi's name of R. excavata. 



Odostomia scalaris, Philippi. 



Found in Turbot Bank sand by Mr. Jeffreys— Hyndman (Chemnitzia 

 scalaris). Dickie records it from Strangford Lough, but from a remark in 

 Jeffreys' work, it would appear that it was the following variety which he 

 obtained there. 



var. rufescens. Bare, off Groomsport (Waller) ; and dredged on the Turbot
