a discussion of the iuterrelatioushii) of the forms of Paradoxides and 

 descriptions of species and varieties. The new species are Paradoxides 

 eteminicus, with five varieties, breviatus, suricoides, malicitus, quacoensis, 

 pontificalis ; Paradoxides acadicus, and P. lamellatus Hartt var. loricatus. 

 The figures are very fair.
