152 THE ZOOLOGIST. 



lington, I added (5) L. terrestris, and (6) A. longa ; then (7) 

 L.festivus (= rubescens), which I had only shortly before re- 

 discovered after it had been lost to science for many years. 

 Here for the first time (8) D. constricta was added to the British 

 lists, and (9) D. arborea was also found. Next came (10) 

 Bimastus eiseni, a somewhat rare species, and (11) Dendrobcena 

 celtica, now known as mammalia. On the way to Battle, the 

 red, purple, green, and turgid worms were met with, and four 

 additions were made to the foregoing list, viz. (12) A. turgida, 

 (13) Eisenia rosea (= A. mucosa), the Brandling or (14) Eisenia 

 fcetida, and the Gilt-tail (15) D. subrubicunda. The following 

 day (March 30th, 1892), walking from Pevensey to Hurst- 

 monceux, I found Allurus plentiful in the ditches, the Brandling 

 in dung-heaps by the roadside, the greenworm (No. 4) under 

 stones inside the Castle, and L. terrestris, L. rufescens (=festivus, 

 No. 7), A. longa, L. castaneus, and E. rosea, en route. All these 

 I have repeatedly found since in these and other Sussex localities, 

 while my mother sent me Allurus, E. rosea, A. chlorotica, L. 

 rubellus, L. castaneus, A. trapezoides, and D. constricta from 

 Dallington in May of the same year. In 1897 I compiled a list 

 of Sussex earthworms as then known, and it contained one 

 addition, viz. (16) 0. profugum. On February 10th, 1894, 

 Mr. Guermonprez wrote me from Bognor, and said he had found 

 L. terrestris, L. castaneus, A. chlorotica, E. fcetida, and some 

 other species. During recent years my attention has been 

 chiefly directed to the Enchytraeids and microscopical Annelids, 

 but a few interesting additions have been made to the list of 

 Sussex earthworms. The most interesting in 1911 was (17) 

 Helodrilus oculatus. This is well distributed in the South, having 

 been taken at Boreham, August 31st, and at Hastings, June 

 20th and July, 1912. On July 8th, 1912, I found a small worm 

 at Ecclesbourne, which is very nearly allied to the Square-tail 

 (Allurus tetrcedrus), but is much smaller and more tender. I 

 name it provisionally (18) Allurus mollis (see Trans. Notts. Nat. 

 Society, 1911-12). 



40. Warwickshire. — Many years ago, while on a visit to 

 Rugby, I collected (1) L. rubellus, (2) A. longa, (3) A. chlorotica, 

 and (4) Allurus tetrcedrus. On February 24th, 1896, Mr. S. T. 

 Dunn, B.A., sent me (5) L. terrestris, (6) L. castaneus, (7) Eisenia
