Zonites fulvus (Miill.). 



The first record of this pretty little shell as a Lincolnshire 

 species is by Dr. Martin Lister, who. in 1678, stated that he had 

 found it more than once in moss at the roots of large trees in 

 Burwell Woods in Lincolnshire, yet the creature was very scarce. 

 (In m-ufco ad grandium arborum radices in f3dvis Burwellenfibus 

 agri Lincolnienfis non femel eam inveni : eft tamen admodum rara 

 beftiola). This interesting record was confirmed in 1886 by Mr. 

 Kev,- f.nding it again in Bunvell Wood. It is, however (as Dr. 

 Lister expressed it), a 'rara bestiola' yet, both in Burwell Wood and 

 Greenfield Wood, although plentiful enough in the beautifully 

 wooded and picturesque dell called Well Vale, near Alford. Xot 

 recorded as yet for South Lincolnshire.
