First described as British by Dr. Pulteney. Found 
between Weymouth and Portland, Dorset, by Mr. 
Bryer. 
We have Sübetituted uel s name of T. punicea for 
Dr. Pulteney's T. leta, as his edition of the Systema 
Nature is in general use, and was prior to the publica- 
tion of the Dorsetshire Catalogue. This rule we have 
generally observed in the following pages. The name 
of T. leta was first given to this species by Dr. Solan- 
der, in a description of Testacea in the Portland 
Museum, but which he left unfinished, and which was 
never printed. :
