There can, I think, be no reasonable doubt of the iden- 

 tity of the species figured on pi. 58 with Say's species. 

 The shells figured were found by Bartlett on the Florida 

 Keys. Similar specimens have lately been sent to the 

 Smithsonian Institute from Lower Matacumba Key. 



As regards B. venosus, Reeve's figure agrees exactly 

 with the Florida shell, but he gives as its habitat the 

 banks of the Orinoco. At all events, Say's name has 

 many years of priority. Reeve quotes Grunei as a syno- 

 nym of venosus. 



Pfeiffer repeats Say's description, having seen no au- 

 thentic specimen. 



Bui. virgulatus Fer. is quite another shell. 



Say's description is given below. 



BULIMUS MULTILINEATUS. Shell conic, not very obviously wrinkled ; 

 whorls not very convex, yellowish white, with transverse entire reddish- 

 brown lines ; a blackish subsutural revolving line ; suture not deeply 

 indented, lineolar ; apex blackish ; umbilicus small, surrounded by a 

 broad blackish line ; columella whitish ; labrum simple, blackish. 



Length less than seven-tenths of an inch. Greatest breadth less than 

 seven-twentieths of an inch. This species was found by Mr. Titian Peale 

 on the southern part of East Florida. 



It is quite distinct from BuL Dormant, but appears 

 somewhat related to BuL Floridianus. 



BULIMUS DORMANI.
