1. An ecological survey of the fauna of Dingle Beach, Mersey Estuary, has been made.2. A detailed analysis of the constituents of the mud, sand and gravel is given.3. A quantitative analysis of the Molluscan fauna from a series of stations has been made.4. Type of ground and fauna at different tidal levels are correlated.Mya arenaria is only found in abundance where there are stones. Macoma balthica is abundant wherever there is thick mud.5.
