would have been anticipated. It occurs in Illinois (Ken- 

 nicott !) Indiana (Ingalls) — also at St. Simon's Isle, 

 Ga. (Postell!) Savannah (Elliott!) and on the Cattahoo- 

 chee River, Ga. (Neisler !) 



From letters received from Dr. Pfeiffer, he seems to have 

 reversed his opinion regarding the identity of this species 

 and H. pustula. 



" Within and near the aperture, there is what may be 

 called the '■fulcrum^! extending from the floor of the last

 monodori Rack. The outer edge of this fulcrum is un- 

 even, — in one of my specimens somewhat denticulated."

 Plate XXXIX. Figure 3. 



This is the pustula of the Terrestrial Mollusks (vol. ii. 

 p. 201) and not of Ferussac. Bland's description is given 

 below from the N. Y. Ann. vi. 350, Notes, 40. 



The species has been detected at Darien, Ga. (Dr. S. 



W. Wilson,) Columbus, Ga. (Neisler.)

H. pustuloides is intermediate in size between H. pustula and H. 

 lepoi-ina, — is less globose than the former, and more sparingly hir- 

 sute. It differs widely from both in the character of the umbilicus,
