Abstract
ON July 19 whilst passing across the Dee sands (Cheshire) from Heswall to the cockle beds, many thousands of the common lugworm, Arenicola marina, were seen lying out of their burrows partly or completely exposed on the surface of the dry sand and in pools almost everywhere at half-tide level, while numbers were being washed downstream in the drainings from the sands with little chance of survival. None had been seen on similar visits made on May 27 and 31.
