Typhlomolge ratlibuni Stejneger. 



Three from an artesian well, 152 feet deep, at San Marcos in 

 Hays County, Texas (Dr. H. A. Pilsbry in 1903). 



Geotriton fuscus Bonaparte. 



Four from Piedmont and Italy. 



Gyrinophilus danielsi (Blatchley). 



Four from North Carolina (Roan Mountain), Tennessee (Roan 

 Mountain), and Georgia. This species has divided premaxillaries 

 and seems to be representative of the genus Gyrinophilus in the 

 southern Alleghanies, rather than a Spelerpes, as so located originally 

 by Blatchley. It differs from G. porphyriiicus in that its color is. 

 lighter and finely dotted with darker, while in G. porpkyriticus the 

 color is more uniformly marbled. Also there is a black line as well 

 as a light line from eye to nostril in G. danielsi, while in G. porphyri- 

 iicus the dark line is obscured in the general dark color of the head. 

 Gyrinophilus porphyriticus.
