146 Binney on Terrestrial Mollusks. 



Pupa carinata Gonld was subsequently referred by him 

 to P. procera (1. e. iv. 3, p. 359) ; Pfeiffer retains it, not 

 having, however, seen the shell. Binney (Boston Proc. i. 

 105) considers it a doubtful species. No mention of it is 

 made in the Terrestrial Mollusks. 



Say never described any species of Pupa under the 

 names of g-ibbosa or minuta which are ascribed to him. 

 Pfeiffer considers the two identical. Rllemer quotes mi- 

 nuta from Texas. On pi. 78, fig. 17, will be found a fac- 

 simile of the figure of gibbosa from Chemnitz. Pfeiffer's 

 description of minuta is as follows. From the two I should 

 consider the species identical with rupicola. 



Pupa minuta. T. vix rimata, cylindrica, nitida, pelluoida, cornea ; 

 spira apice obtusa; anfr. 6 convexiiisculi, ultimus basi subcoiiipressus ; aper- 

 tura subscmic-ircularis, 4-dentata; dentibus siiba?qualibus, 1 pariotali, 

 1 columellari, 2 palatalibus ; perist. expansum, sublabiatum, margini- 

 bus disjunctis, dextro superne arcuato. Long. 21, diain. 1^ mill. Ap. 

 obrupie i niill. longa. Habitat in Pennsylvania. 



Obs. An forte varietas P. prucerce ? 



I suppose Vertigo minuta of Adams's Genera to be this 



species. 



It is also placed in the subgenus Vertigo by Binney, 

 thoueh the animal had not been seen.
