Species point records from 1978 Smith Uists rocky shore mollusc survey

15 sites were surveyed, in 3 main categories: 1. west coast, exposed or semi-exposed; 2. east coast, mainly sheltered; 3. brackish water lochs. Brief descriptions of each site are given, with mollusc-orientated notes on habitats and other species. 117 species were found alive. The most interesting discoveries were, in addition to the specialised brackish water species (see species lists), amongst the chitons, with a further example of Acanthochitona sp. ('a handsome red one') being found on the Monach Islands. Amongst the Gastropoda, Diodora graeca, found at Aird an Runair and at Lochmaddy by SMBA, is a new live record for the Outer Hebrides, elegantly establishing a continuation of distribution between Ireland and Orkney. Species lists of molluscs on smaller algae are appended, as are recording forms.

在三个主要类别中对15个地点进行了调查：1. 西海岸，暴露或半暴露；2. 东海岸，主要为隐蔽；3. 盐淡水湖泊。对每个地点均进行了简要描述，并附有关于栖息地及其他物种的以软体动物为导向的注释。共发现117种活体物种。除了专化的盐淡水物种（参见物种列表）外，最有趣的发现还包括在摩纳赫群岛上发现的另一种腹足类动物——Acanthochitona sp.（‘一种俊美的红色个体’）。在腹足纲中，Diodora graeca在Aird an Runair和Lochmaddy被SMBA发现，是外赫布里底群岛的新记录，优雅地确立了爱尔兰与奥克尼群岛之间分布的连续性。附有小型藻类上软体动物的物种列表，以及记录表格。
