Inhabits walls, and among moss in woods about Paris. Geof- 

 froy. South of France. Bruguiere. Italy. 0/^^.7". 



Shell about half an inch long, and one-fourth as broad, with 

 nine or ten whirls, which are nearly smooth, or only slightly 

 striated longitudinally ; the aperture has a whitish border, 

 and is armed with three teeth at its summit, and two at the 

 base. Bruguiere has not quoted Born for this species, but 

 I think there can be no doubt that his Bulimus similis is the 

 same. 



TRiDENS. 149. Shell sub-cylindrical, smooth, pel- 

 lucid, and the aperture three-toothed.
