This 

 individ 



Cepedea resembles a somewhat flattened C. dimidiata. It has 

 iials of stocky and of slender form, the latter, however, are 



not pointed posteriorly, as are 

 some of the most slender C. dimid- 

 iata. The thickness of the body 

 is from one-third to one-half, or 

 more, as great as the width. It 

 seems, therefore, somewhat inter- 

 mediate betAveen the Cepedeas and 

 the Opalinas.
