SCALA, Humphrey. 
245. ScALA INDIANORUM, Carpenter, sp. 
Scalaria Indianorum, Cpr., Rept. Brit. Assoc., 1863, p. 660 (August, 1864) ; and 
Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., series 3, vol. xv., p. 31 (January, 1865). 
This species is not very abundant. It has been dredged at Depar- 
ture Bay, Baynes Sound and Comox, at Discovery Passage, and at the 
Queen Charlotte Islands, but has not yet been found at Victoria. 
The type specimens were from Swan's collections from Neeah Bay.

ept. Brit. Assoc., 1863, p. 660 (August, 1864); and Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., series 3, 
vol. xv., p. 31 (January, 1865). 
Found by the United States Exploring Expedition in Puget Sound 
and indicated, but not described, by Gould in Hapl. Exped. Mollusca, p. 
207. The shell was obtained also by Swan at Neeah Bay and Tatooche 
Island. 
In British Columbia I have never found ©, borealis alive, but have 
many times received the dead shells from various points on the west 
coast of Vancouver Island. Dr. Newcombe has been more fortunate 
than I have and has taken living specimens at Clayoquot Sound. Pro- 
fessor Macoun found a few very large dead specimens at Sooke.

2? = Turbo politus, Linn., Syst. Nat., ed. xii, vol. i, pt. 2, p. 1241, no. 653 
(1767). 
This speciesis probably, but not certainly, the same as the Æ. polita 
of Europe. For the present therefore the name applied by Carpenter to 
the western shell is retained. The species is widely distributed in our 
seas and in some localities is rather common. 
It has been dredged at Victoria, Departure Bay, Comox and Clayo- 
quot and at numerous points in Queen Charlotte Sound, the Straits of 
Georgia, Johnston Straits and at the Queen Charlotte Islands. 
Tt is usually found in sand at a depth of 10 to 40 fathoms. 
248. EuLIMA sp. 
A second species of Æulima is recorded by Whiteaves, under the 
name “ Hulima incurva, Renieri = Æ. distorta, Auct,” as having been
