A boreal species ; introduced as a native of the Orkneys hy 

 Donovan, wliose specimen still exists in Mr. Hanleys cabinet, and 

 is precisely identical with the species figured and delineated hy 

 Gould as the Donovani of Gray, who pronounces it distinct from 

 the B. glaciale, of Lamarck, of which ChemnitHs figure (Conch. 

 Cab. vol. x.pl. 152, f. 144G, 1447 ; B. carinatum, Phipps) may 

 he regarded as the type. The description in the Fauna Suecica, 

 however, applies far better to Donovan^ s shell, than to the coarsely 

 ridged individual delineated by Chemnitz. 



Note. — The four following shells are evidently the fry of a species of Ihuchmm 

 (the two first probably of undutum) or of some allied genus : they are so imper- 

 fectly characterized and wretchedly drawn, that we hesitate to refer them to any 

 definite species.
