greatly perplexed the conchologist, and the condition of my fossils presents greater difficulties in their 
determination. 
In the ‘Memoirs of the Geological Survey,’ vol. i, p. 423, Lacuna Montacuti is quoted as having been 
found in the Drift Beds of Ireland. 
Littorina? suboperta, ‘Crag Moll.,’ vol. i, p. 118, t. 10, fig. 13. Sinee the figure here referred to 
was made, I have obtained a rather better specimen, which shows a flattened or slightly concave columella, 
the characteristic distinction of the genus Lacuna. It may, perhaps, with more propriety be called Lacuna 
suboperta. 
Iittorina neritoides, rudis, and palliata, are enumerated in the ‘ List of Clyde Fossils.’

The Crag shell was considered by myself as an identity with the Mediterranean species, which subse- 
quent examination gives reason to believe is not correct; I have, therefore, ventured to restore to it the 
provisional name given in my ‘Catalogue.’ It resembles a recent British shell which I believe belongs to 
this genus, Odostomia dolioliformis, ‘ Hist. Brit. Moll.,’ vol. 11, p. 301, pl. 97, fig. 5. Our fossil is, however, 
specifically distinct, and seems to preserve an intermediate character between dolioliformis and clathratus, 
being larger than the one, and smaller than the other, and more elongated than either. The ridge upon 
the columella is at times invisible, and is a character not to be depended upon.

Locality. Red Crag, Walton Naze. Recent, Britain. 
A solitary specimen of a shell of this perplexing genus has been recently obtained by myself from 
the Red Crag, and it appears to accord best with the shorter variety of the above-named recent British 
species, although it differs slightly in having the volutions at the base rather more rounded. 
In the former part of my Monograph, Od. plicata and Od. conoidea are united as one and the same 
species, which I now believe to be distinct, as pointed out by the authors of the ‘Hist. of Brit. Mollusca.’ 
Both these species were in existence during the Crag Periods, the latter in the Coralline, and the former 
in the Red Crag. 2 
A shell in my cabinet, from the Coralline Crag, strongly resembles Od. eulimoides ; but the specimen 
is not in sufficiently good preservation for figure or description.
