rated insertions, while in the balance of the specimens examined (pl. 
XV, fig. E, 1, 3) there is a single band of tissue with two small inser- 
tions. In several cases the retractors of penis and penis-sac were 
joined and formed one band of muscle as it entered the columella 
muscle. The measurements of the genitalia may be tabulated as fol-

The genitalia of Acella haldemani differ from those of the other 
Lymneidz in the long, flatly cylindrical prostate. 
Rance: (Figure 15) Vermont and eastern Ontario west to north- 
-ern Minnesota, south to northern Illinois and northern Ohio. 
The range of haldemani lies on the confines of the Canadian and 
the upper Mississippian regions, and does not extend for any great 
distance into either. It is confined to the drainage of the St. Law- 
rence-Great Lakes and the upper part of the Mississippi River. With 
the exception of the Minnesota records, the distribution lies within 
the drainage area of the Great Lakes. It 1s characteristic of the transi- 
tion life zone. The records indicate that the species did not take ad- 
vantage of the Lake Agassiz connection with the Minnesota River; it 
is possible that it is a new type developed since the Glacial Period. 
Information is needed concerning the range of this species in north- 
ern Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota and in Canada.
