2, Bulimulus stramineus. 



B. corpore coerulescente-flavido ; pede subtus, tentaculis apice, palli- 

 dis : oculis atris : pallio coerulescente : abdomine candido. 



Testa subdiaphana, straminea, transversa densissim^ striatula ; anfrac- 

 tibus 6-7 : apicali ferruginoso. 



B. stramineus. Linn. Trans., xiv, p. 2, pag. 340. 



Habitat abunde in dmnetis Sti. Vincentii. Incola retracta, coloribus- 

 que confusis, virescit testa. 



It abounds in rainy weather in the underwood about Fort Charlotte 

 and other parts of this island, and when withdrawn into the shell, resem- 

 bles the pale-green side of a reversed leaf, an appearance which renders 

 it difficult to be found, and doubtless protects it from the birds. 



** Labro semper simplici, tenui. 



3. Bulimulus fuscus. 



B. nigro fuscescens, coUo nigro bilineato ; pallio abdomineque atro*. 

 maculatis : tentaculis brevibus, nigris. 



Testa nigro-fusca, subdiaphana, epidermide longitudinaliter plicata : 

 striis transversis evanidis. 



Habitat passim sub lapidibus insulse Barbadensis, societate Helici- 

 narum. 



' The first section of the genus contains those species which creep on , 

 trees, and have a slightly reflected lip, in the adult state : the second com- 

 prehends those which hide themselves under stones during the day, and 

 in which the lip is thin, simple, and never reflected. 



Analecta Zoologica. 



Tn drawing up the characters of our Mollusca, I have purposely con- 

 fined myself, for the most part, to the exterior anatomy, imagining that I 

 should do a serious injury to science in attempting what can be so much 

 better done by the celebrated anatomists of France. I have vnritten to 

 M. De Blainville, intreating that he will undertake the internal anatomy, 

 and permit me to forward to him, through Mr. Sowerby, specimens of 

 all our animals, properly prepared for dissection. 1 hope also to estab-
