Abstract
I AM putting together such instances as I can find of dispersal of freshwater bivalves by closure of their shells so as to cling to the toes of birds, amphibia, water-beetles, &c., and of univalves by adhesion to the wing-cases of water-beetles, &c., and venture to ask for co-operation. Any notes or references which your readers may have the kindness to send to the undermentioned address will be welcomed and carefully acknowledged.
