Vineyard Sound to Northern Florida. In Vineyard Sound and Buz- 
zard’s Bay this species is common in 2 to 10 fathoms. Huntington 
and Gardiner’s Bay, Long Island, 4 to 5 fathoms, (S. Smith). South 
Carolina (Kurtz). Fort Macon, North Carolina (Coues). Georgia 
(Couper). 
Acrybia flava H.and A. Adams,.= Natica flava Gould, Invert., ed. i, p. 
239, fig. 162; Bulbus flavus Gould, op. cit., ed. ii, p. 347, fig. 616. This 
species was catalogued by Linsley (1845) as from the stomachs of had- 
dock taken off Stonington, Connecticut. It has not been subsequently 
recorded from south of Cape Cod by any one. It is not improbable that 
there was some mistake, either in respect to the locality or the identity 
of the specimens referred to by Linsley. It is an arctic species, found in 
the Bay of Fundy and at Saint George’s Bank; northward to Greenland 
(Moller, as V. nana). 
Natica clausa Brod. and Sowerby, was erroneously given by Mr. Per- 
kins (Proc. Boston Soe. Nat. Hist., vol. xiil, p. 162) as from “ Stonington, 
Connecticut, Linsley.” It does not occur in Mr. Linsley’s list, nor has 
it been found living, to my knowledge, south of Cape Cod. It occurs 
in Massachusetts Bay and northward to the Arctic Ocean. It is not 
uncommon in the Bay of Fundy from 6 to 109 fathoms; and in Casco 
Bay from 9 to 60 fathoms. One small dead specimen was dredged by 
us in 19 fathoms, off Gay Head.

Massachusetts Bay to South Carolina. Vineyard Sound and Buzzard’s 
3ay, 3 to 10 fathoms; Long Island Sound, near New Haven. Dartmouth 
Harbor (Adams) ; Boston Harbor (Stimpson) ; Long Island (S. Smith) ; 
Fort Macon, North Carolina (Coues). Also reported from Bermuda. 
Jeffreys (in Annals and Mag. Nat. Hist., Oct., 1872, p. 244) regards 
this as identical with the European C.tubercularis, and gives it a north - 
ern distribution. Both opinions appear to be incorrect.
