and Durham, vol. iii. p. 371, pi. xii. figs. 12, 13 (1870). 

 Paradoxostoma hodgei, Brady and Norman, op. cit., p. 235, pi. xxi. 

 figs. 7, 8. 

 Habitat. — Off St Monance and Phidra, frequent. New to the east of 

 Scotland. 



Paradoxostoma (?) affine, provisional name. (PI. XII. figs. 8-9). 



Shell seen from the side elongate, subovate, highest a little behind the 

 middle; dorsal margin evenly but not boldly arched, inferior nearly straight, 

 slightly sinuate towards the anterior extremity; anterior extremity rather 

 higher than the posterior, and the margins of both evenly rounded; surface 

 smooth, with a few irregular scratched lines. Outline seen from above 

 compressed, ovate, the posterior half of nearly equal breadth, with the 

 extremity obtusely pointed; anteriorly the shell is more compressed, the 

 extremity being somewhat acuminate; breadth about equal to height and 

 a third of the length; length, '42 mm. 



This form resembles a small P. ar citatum, but is not so narrow 

 posteriorly, and the greatest breadth is nearer the posterior extremity. 

 "Habitat. — Off St Monance, not common.

 Habitat. — Bass Rock, but not common. This is a generally distributed, 

 though not an abundant species. I have specimens from the Moray Firth 

 and from Orkney: it is not uncommon in the Clyde.

 for the east of Scotland. 



Note. — In the Monograph by Brady and Norman, recently published by 

 the Royal Dublin Society, the following species are recorded from the 

 Firth of Forth: — Loxoconcha fragilis, G. O. Sars; Loxoconcha pusilla, 

 Brady and Robertson; and Cythere pulchella, Brady, which, with the ex- 

 ception of the first, I also have observed in different parts of the Estuary.
