[The shells included in ihe above extensive synonymy present some variation in form and co- 

 loration, but in an exaniinaticin of several tbousaud specimens I was unabJe to separate the eo- 

 called species satisi'acturily. G. srmicari'iwla, Say, is the young shell, which, when old, varies in 

 form, being narrow in avyustispira and exilis, and broader in the other syuonj-ms. The epecief 

 inhabits au extensive range of country.
