S. Hyallna (Euhyalina) alliarla, Miller. The shell and 

 dentition correspond with the description ; dentition, 11 — 3 — 

 1 — 3 — 11, one marginal tooth more than mentioned by Schep- 

 man. In Mr. E. W. Fereday's hothouse, probably intro- 

 duced from England. 



9. Hyallna (Vltrea) crystallina, Miill. Specimens from 

 Auckland are in Professor F. W. Hutton's cabinet, Canterbury 

 Museum. 



10. Zonitoicles niticla, Miill. Eecorded by Mr. Charles T. 

 Musson : "Lake St. John, Auckland; a dozen specimens, 

 under logs." I feel very doubtful about the identification of 

 these shells, which I have not seen, as they might as well be 

 Hyallna novarcz, Pf. The examination of the dentition would 

 at once settle the question. 



11. Arion cmpirlcorum, Fer. {A. ater, L.). Auckland, 

 crawling over the roads after rain (Charles T. Musson). 



12. Arion subfuscus, Drap. (A. Incommodus , Hutt.). Dun- 

 edin (F. W. Hutton). 



13. Arion Jiortensls, Fer. Auckland, plentiful (Charles T. 

 Musson). 



14. Helix (Xcrophila) capcrata, Mont.''' Found in Nelson 

 (J. Meeson). 



15. Helix (Tachea) hortejisis, Miill. Auckland (F. W. 

 Hutton). Mr. Charles T. Musson erroneously gives the name 

 of H. ncmoralis, L. (I.e., p. 895). 



16. Helix (Pomatia) aspersa, Miill. Auckland, -Nelson, 

 Greymouth (F. W. Hutton) ; Wellington, Christchurch (H. S.). 

 Common at most of the sea-coast towns. Examples from 

 Apua, in the Bay of Islands, are exceptionally thin, whilst 

 shells from Auckland are of the variety conoidea (Musson, 

 I.e.). 



17. Helix (Corasia) tricolor, Pf. Indigenous to San Chris- 

 toval, Solomon Islands. The specimens I saw are in the 

 cabinet of Mr. Kinsey, of Christchurch, and were found at the 

 Bay of Islands. " Lives on the leaves of trees, or any plant 

 in garden that is firm enough to hold them," says the col- 

 lector's note. Formerly the Bay of Islands was trading with 

 the Solomon Islands, and this may explain the introduction 

 of this fine shell. 



18. Coclilostyla (Ortlwstyla) daphnis, Brod. One speci- 

 men, which was found at Picton, is in Mr. Kinsey's cabinet. 

 The species is a native of the Philippine Islands (Zebu, 

 Siguijor). 



* I am indebted to Mr. Charles Hedley, Austral. Mus., Sydney, for 

 the identification of this shell.
