Excerpt from Land and Freshwater Mollusca of India, Vol. 3: Including South Arabia, Baluchistan, Afghanistan, Kashmir, Nepal, Burmah, Pegu, Tenasserim, Malay Peninsula, Ceylon, and Other Islands of the Indian Ocean; Supplementary to Messrs. Theobald and Hanley's Conchologia Indica; Part I, November, 1920 IN Spite of the very limited interest which is taken in the animals of the land mollusca, I am induced to commence Volume III. Of this work; for until the Species in the many Oriental genera are collected, their anatomy made known, and their true habitat recorded, any attempt to use them for classification or any deeper research is not possible. The work of the Conchologist is simply useless unless this is done and the physical features of India are taken into account. During the war I have not been able to carry on this publication, begun 37 years ago and ended in two volumes in 1914. On the other hand, I have had leisure to do much with the material in my hands, and to add to it, especially specimens preserved in Spirit, and have described the animals of many Indian Genera previously unknown. I have had much support - more than I had hoped to receive - and from many quarters for this I cannot express my thanks too strongly. I must especially notice Dr. N. Annandale, with Messrs. S. W. Kemp and eh. Graveley of the Indian Museum. I feel it a duty to those who have supplied material, to put what I have brought to light on record, as a starting-point for those who will follow me in this wide and difficult field of research, so full of deep interest to anyone who enters it.
