 MARINE ZOOLOGY The following is a list of shells collected by the late Dr. Hillier of Ramsgate in that district, kindly supplied to me by Mrs. Hillier, now of St. Albans.

It will thus be seen that by combining my own observations with those of others who have so kindly assisted me, it has been possible to give a fairly satisfactory account of some of the groups of marine animals met with both on the north and south-east coasts of Kent.
