Dr. Giintlier's characters for T. undulosm and Professor Poey's for T. 

 hrunneus are little better, since no diagnostic points are evident. 



Since the Floridau and Cuban faunas are so similar, desiring to avoid 

 a multiplication of specific names, we provisionally refer the Florida 

 specimens before us to Poey's T. hrunneus until we have an opportunity 

 to compare them with si^ecimens identified by that author. These had 

 been hitherto identified with T. acutirostris. 



We have studied three specimens, No. 15,4G2, sent by Mr. Blackford, 

 from New York market. No. 16,902, obtained by Mr. J. H. Richard in 

 Washington market, and No. 21,330 (32), sent by Mr. Stearns from Pen- 

 sacola in 1878. Full measurements of these specimens are given below.
