Almost exactly like S. oralis, Say, but is a little more corpulent. 

 It is less elongated than S. pudorina, more shining and different- 

 ly colored.

Very much like S. ohlonga, Drap. It is more slender, the 

 aperture narrower, and the penult whorl nearly twice as long. 



Succinea infundibuliformis. Testa acuto-conica, infundi- 

 buliformis, ad basim peroblique truncata, concinne striata, opaca,

A most remarkable tunnel-shaped species, resembling pre- 

 cisely the sugar-cockles of the confectioners. It is allied to S. 

 procera, which has all the outlines a little convex, an amber co- 

 lor, and no inflection of the columellar margin.
