Thf slopes of the wood on the left hand, after descending the Hight of steps, is 
a very rich hunting ground, and the following species may be mentioned amongst 
others : — Euconulits fulvns^ Acanthimila aculeafa, Acicula line.ita. Vertigo 
substriata, V. pusiIJa, Clausilia laminata, etc. The ledges along some of the cliffs 
near the top of Constiiution Hill yield Pupa secale. The same 'species occurs again 
at Twisleton Scars. Ancyius lacustris and rts variety albida occur in the stream. 
The damp woody part on the right hand of tlie stream going up the valley, yield 
very fine Hyalina cellaria and Hy. helvetica^ whilst some marshy ground on the 
slopes nearing Pecca Falls yield Siiccinea putris SLud S. eUgans. 
The Beesley Valley, while not being so productive as the Swilla Valley, 
produces one of our rare Yorkshire shells, Vertigo alpestris, which occurs on a 
low wall near the lower end. The wall tops throughout the district are also 
productive, under suitable conditions, for Pyramidula riipestris, Clausilia bidentata 
var. cravenensis and Balea perversa. Many of the 'oadsides yield the larger Helices 
in abundance under moist conditions. Helix aspersa occurs on several j^arden walls 
in the village 
In regard to slugs, Limax arborum is verv common, hiding away in cracks and 
holes in trees in Swilla Glen ; and although full early for Limax tenelltis to occur in 
adult form, this species has yet to be turned up in this part of Yorkshire, so a 
diligent search may add this slug to the district list, though they will no doubt be 
juvenile specimens. 
ENTOMOLOGY. — The Entomological Section will be officially represented. 
Coleoptera. — The Yorkshire Coleoptera Committee will be officially repre- 
sented by Mr. J. W. Carter, K.E.S. 
Mr. E. Vj. Bayford, F.E.S., writes Our knowledge of the beetle fauna of the 
Ingleton district is mostly due to the researches of the late G. W. Chaster and 
J. W. Ellis, with additions by F. Booth, J. W. Carter, F. E.S., and the writer. 
On the occasion of the previous visit of the Union, May 1214, 1906, there was 
nothing of importance taken so far as this order is concerned. To quote Mr. 
Carter's words, "the species noted were what one would expect to find in almost 
any part of the country.'' 
The following is a list of the best species recorded, those marked with an * 
being the only records for the county: — * Ischnoglossa prolixa^ Or.. Autalia 
riTularis, Gr , Siffalia ruficollis, Er. . Bolilochatia lucida. (xr., B. obliqua, Er., 
Otiiius myrmecophilits, Kies, Lathrobium multip tine turn ^ Or., Trogophlaetis 
arntatus, Steph., 7\ corticinus. Gr., Geodromicns plagiatus, Heer var. nigrita. 
Mull.. LathrimatifH tmicolor, Steph., Homalinm vile, Er., Choleva wilkini, Spence, 
* Hyilmius validus, Aube, B securiger, Reich, B. burrelli, Denny, Corymbites

lae7>icollis, Rey., Mniophila fniiscoriim, Koch, Apion seminulu?n, Kirby, 
Otiorhynchiis rugi/rons, Ciyll. 
ARACHNOLOGY. — The Yorkshire Arachnida Committee will be represented. 
Mr. W. Falconer writes : — The Ingleton district has not yet been properly 
worked, although various collectors have paid passing visits to the locality. A number 
of common species are on record, with a few of greater rarity and interest, such as 
Argyroneta aqiiatica Latr., Leptyphantes an^Jilatus Cb., Tmeticus prudens, expertus 
and riva lis Ch., Caledonia evansii Camb , Meta rnenardi (in caves), and Pirata 
hygrophilus Thor. The dales with their relatively greater wealth of vegetation and 
moist places on the higher ground, will be the most productive spots to work at 
this season. It mav be that Neriene montana, one of Blackvvall's lost species, will 
reward the diligent collector.
