always shady, damp, and covered with mosses and ferns. I collected the shells 

 on the ledges of the rocks among the dead leaves, at an elevation above the 

 river of about 100 feet. I have not found either of the species in any other 

 locality." 



Mr. J. H. Thomson, to whom I suumitted specimens, sent to me examples 

 of the same species collected by him, "on a high rocky ledge, covered with old 

 trees, at Tiverton, Rhode Island." 



This species, Z. JVhcatleyi, is more nearly allied to Z. viriduliis, Menke, than 

 to any other North American form, but diifers from it, especially in the form 

 of aperture, in the descending last whorl, and in having a wider umbilicus. 



I dedicate the species to the memory of my late valued and lamented friend, 

 Charles M. Wheatley. (Bland.)
