THE NAUTILUS. 23 



numbers of species in different parts of the areas covered by the 

 genera have been added by Mr. Gratacap. To some extent these 

 charts indicate, incidentally, areas in which but little collecting has 

 been done. This is especially the case with plate xlii, representing 

 the distribution of typical Polygyra. 



The following names seem to be new to us: 



Glandina truncata var. minor Binney MS. (p. 338, Cat. no. 16). 

 Based upon "Variety of Glandina Texasiana Pfr.?," Terr. Moll, iv, 

 pp. 141, 205, pi. 77, f. 21. Seems to be a very slender specimen of 

 G. truncata minor Pils., NAUTILUS xiii, p. 46 ; Proc. A. N. S., Phila., 

 1899, p. 404. 



Macrocyclis vancouverensis var. semi-decussata Binney on label (p. 

 340). Astoria, Oregon. This is doubtless identical with Oircinurin 

 sparteHu hybrida Anc., which we have from Astoria. 



M. concava var. minor (p. 341). No locality or definition. 



Zoniles (Gastrodonta) lifjems var. sagdinoides Gratacap (p. 344)^ 

 "A very high 'bee-hive' form from Indiana." 



Zonites (Hyalina] placentuhi Shuttl. (p. 350), Catal. no. 294 was 

 Binney's earlier identification of placentula, subsequently becoming 

 the type of Z. lawi. The specimens from Monroe Co., Tenn., and 

 St. Giles Co., Va., are true phtcenttda, as afterward identified l.y 

 Binney. Through the kindness of Mr. Gratacap, I have been aide 

 to examine this series. 



Helix (Patula) alternata var. costigera Bid. MS. ^p. 357). 



Helix (Patula) perspective* ''var. carinata (p. 358) from Union Co., 

 Tenn., is almost planate, and below the periphery the stria? approach 

 extinction." Under H. (P-) bryanti, Mr. Gratacap writes, "Cer- 

 tainly interchangeable with var. carinala of perspective!." 



Triodopsis muJlani (Bland), Cat. no. 1275 (p. 383), can hardly !> 

 that species. 



Macroceramus (p. 397). Tli( j specimens recorded under M. pon- 

 tificus as from Texas are probably M. iexanus. That from Central 

 America is no doubt kieneri, as recorded by Mr. Gratacap (see Man. 

 Amer. Land Shells, p. 41 G, fig. 457). H. A. P. 



SOME UNDESCRIBED VAKIKTIES OF CYPR.EA. By Mrs. Agnes 

 Kenyon (Jour, of Conchology, Vol. X, p. G, April, 1902). In this 

 paper the following varieties are described as new : 



Cyprcea tiyris var. Hneuta. From Fiji. Differs from the type in 

 possessing a number of longitudinal hair-like lines.
