Fam. Patulidae. 



22. Patula coma, Gray. Common everywhere, especially 

 under loose bark on logs. 



Patula coma, Gray, forma glohosa. Near Hastwell I 

 found a number of P. coma having the general appearance of 

 P. luceUa,hui the umbilicus is wider and the ribs more distant 

 than in the latter species. There are all intermediate forms 

 to be found, from the flat normal form, whose height is 0-12in., 

 to the globose form showing a height of 0-16in. 



23. Patula lucetta, Hutt. Very scarce. One specimen 

 only, near Mauriceville. 



24. Patula buccinella, Eeeve. Not common. Together 

 with P. hianca. 



25. Patula corniculum, Eeeve. Scarce, especially adult 

 speciinens. 



26. Patula hianca, Hutt. Under bark on logs, but easily 

 overlooked, because it has almost the same colour as the wood 

 and bark of rimu, on which it is mostly found. 



27. Patula anguicula, Eeeve. Under dead leaves and 

 amongst mould in damp situations in the bush. As it is very 

 minute and dark-colom-ed, it is difficult to find it. This 

 species is found on both Islands, but seems to be nowhere 

 abundant. 



28. Patula varicosa, Pf. {= P. timandra, Hutt.). Under 

 rotten wood and under bark in damp places. Eather scarce. 



29. Patula tapirina, Hutt. Next P. coma the most com- 

 mon shell of the genus. Under rotten wood and dead leaves. 



Patula tapirina, Hutt., forma alhina. Nearly white. 

 Found in the bush near Hastwell. 



30. Patula infecta, Eeeve. With the foregoing. 



31. Patula infecta, Eeeve, var. irregularis, Sut. Very 

 scarce. 



32. Patula sylvia, Hutt. Through the whole bush, but 

 rather scarce. Darker in colour than specimens I have seen 

 from the South Island. 



33. Patula colensoi, Sut. Under rotten wood, &c. 

 Scarce. 



34. Patula variecostata, Sut. In the bush near Maurice- 

 ville, under rotten wood. Very scarce. 



35. Patula raricostata, Sut. Near Mauriceville, on lime- 

 stone formation, amongst mould in the bush. Eare. 



36. Patula biconcava, Pf. In dark and damp situations in 

 the bush. Not common. 



87. Patula liuttoni, Sut. Very scarce. Under rotten logs 

 in the bush near Hastwell. 



38. Patula moussoni, Sut. In the same places. Eare. 



39. Patula subantialba, Sut. In damp, shady places in 

 the bush near Hastwell and Mauriceville. Scarce.
