Helix Fusulus. Muller Verm. ii. p. IO9. 



Inhabits the coasts of America. Bruguiere. 



Shell nearly an inch and a half long, and one-third as broadj 

 with twelve obliquely ribbed whirls ; it has been generally 

 confounded with T. Uva, from which it differs in being larger, 

 and more acclniinated towards the summit, in having the 

 whirls more numerous, the ribs more oblique, and in the 

 aperture, which has a second tooth placed nearly at the bot- 

 tom of the pillar-lip. 



ALVEARIA. 110. Shell cylindrical, obtuse at both 

 ends, and obliquely striated; aperture semi- 

 ovate, one-toothed, and the inside white.

Lister Conch, t. 588. f. 49- Seha, iii. t. 55. f. 21, the 

 furthest shell on the right hand. 

 Inhabits St. Domingo and Guadaloupe, and is a land shell. 



Bruguiere. 

 Shell about an inch or an inch and a quarter long, and not 



much more than one-fourth as broad, with seven or eight 



obliquely striated whirls ; the colour is white, both inside 



and out. 



CYLINDRUS. 111. Shell sub-umbilicated, cylindri- 

 cal, obtuse, and longitudinally striated, with 

 contiguous equal whirls.

 Lister Conch, t. 21. f. 17. Browne's Jamaica, t. 40. f. 8. 



Inhabits Jamaica, and is a land shell. Lister. 



This shell appears by the figures to be about an inch long, and 

 rather more than one-fourth as broad, and seems to be very 

 nearly allied to T. Alvearia, but Chemnitz has not noticed 

 any tooth in the aperture ; it is moreover said to have eleven 

 whirls, and to be whitish with a tinge of purple. 



CROCEUS. 112. Shell cylindrical, glabrous, obtuse^ 

 of an orange colour, and the lip marginated.

Chemnitz has given only a very short description of this species, 



which appears by his figure to be about sixteen lines long,
