Extract

During a visit to the Isle of Bute in the summer of 1920 I took the opportunity of collecting a number of the smaller Oligochæta on the shore at Ascog, and in a pond on the hill just above the village. An account of this collection is given in the present paper; I have also added notes on a few species I have met with since then near Edinburgh. For laboratory accommodation at Ascog I have to thank Prof. L. P. W. Renouf, at that time Superintendent of the Biological Station, who very kindly placed the resources of the institution at my disposal.
