cinum glutinosum, Miiller, Verm., II, p. 129. 
Shell suborbicular, very thin, diaphanous, shining, smooth, or 
obsoletely wrinkled longitudinally, and of a pale yellowish horn 
colour ; body extremely large, much inflated; spire very small, 
consisting of three volutions, hardly rising above the body, well 
defined by the suture, and terminating obtusely; aperture oval, 
very large, extending nearly the whole length of the body; outer 
lip excessively thin; destitute of an umbilicus on the pillar. 
Found in ditches in England, Ireland, and Scotland. 
2. AMPHIPEPLEA LACUSTRIS, pl. XV, f. 24, 25.—First Ed., 
pl. 42, f. 24, 25. 
Gulnaria lacustris, Leach, Moll., p. 146? 
Shell subovate, extremely thin, pellucid, and shining, of a pale 
yellowish horn colour ; body very large, and inflated; spire ex- 
cessively short, consisting of two small yolutions, which hardly 
rise above the body, superior one blunt at the apex; aperture 
suboval, a little narrowed above; outer lip thin, expansive, with 
its base rounded; inner lip a little reflected on the columella, 
with a slight subumbilicus behind it. 
I found this species in Loch Leven, Kinrossshire, Scotland. 
It differs from the preceding species, in being larger and 
thicker, the spire having but two volutions, in the aperture 
being not so large and expanded, and in the base of the lip 
being more rounded. 
In Lady Jardine’s cabinet. 
Genus 39.—Puysa.—Drapernaud. 
Shell sinistral, or with the volutions turning in a contrary 
direction to the ordinary course, oval, or oblong, very thin, and 
polished; spire usually prominent; aperture longitudinal, ovate, 
or oblong, contracted above; outer lip very thin, and acute, 
partly obtruding above the plane of the aperture; inner lip 
reflected on the columella.

Tb., Man., p. 128, f. 111. 
Found in the river Towin, North Wales. 
Variety 2, pl. XIV, f. 83, 84. Volutions more oblique ; body 
less inflated ; base more acute ; and spire more obtuse. 
Helix Bulleoides, Donovan, Brit. Sh., pl. 168, f.2; Bulla 
Sflwiatiles, Turton, Conch. Dict., p. 27, the young shell. 
It is plentiful in a stream at Clonooney, King’s County, 
Treland. 
Shell sinistral, oblong-oval, extremely thin, transparent, fragile, 
and glossy, and of a greenish horn colour; body very large; spire 
very short, consisting of three or four yolutions, the lower one a 
little inflated, and terminating in a somewhat obtuse apex; aper- 
ture oblong, occupying about three-fourths the length of the 
shell, contracted, and pointed above, and rounded at the base. 
Length about three-eighths of an inch; breadth not quite a 
quarter. 
Old shells are not unfrequently provided with a few longitudi- 
nal and transverse wrinkles. 
This species is pretty generally diffused throughout Great 
Britain and Ireland, in rivers, streams, and stagnant pools, adher- 
ing to the under surface of aquatic plants.

and Rackett, Linn. Tr., VIII, pl. 4, f. 1. 
Shell oblong-ovate, very thin, brittle, and transparent; body 
very large; spire very short, consisting of four volutions, and 
terminating in an acute apex; aperture oblong-ovate, somewhat 
oblique, and lengthened beyond the body volution. Length 
nearly half an inch ; breadth a quarter. 
Found in Anglesea, Wales, and first identified as British by 
J. Sowerby, Esq., who bred it in a water-butt, and describes the 
animal as differing materially from P. fontinalis.
