Odostomia fusca (Adams). 



Pyramis fusca, C. B. Adams (1839). 



Odostomia fusca, Gould (1841 and 1870) ; et auct. 



Rare on the oyster beds at Bedeque (Rev. H. W. Winkley, 1887). 



Odostomia bisuturalis (Say). 



Turritella bisuturalis, Say (1822). 



Jaminia exigua, Couthouj^ (1838). 



Odostomia exigua, Gould (1841). 



Chemnitzia bisuturalis, Stimpson (1851). , 



From the mud of oyster barrels which came from the Gulf of St. Lawrence 

 (Ganong, 1891). In the '= Nautilus " for March, 1901, however, the Rev. 

 H, W. Winkley expresses the opinion that 0. trifida, 0. bisuturalis and 

 0. impressa will probably have to be united under one name. 



Menestho albula (Fabricius). 



Turbo albuius, O. Fabricius (1780). 

 Menestho albuJa, MoUer (1842). 



The young (probably of this species) were frequent in 2-15 fathoms, sand, 

 off Caribou Island (Packard). " One young, living, at L'Anse au Loup " 

 (Strait of Belle Isle) "10 fathoms, mud and kelp. This specimen does not 

 agree precisely with Greenland examples" (Miss Bush, in Catalogue of the 

 Mollusca, etc., obtained by the Stearns Labrador expedition in 1882). 



Dr. Paul Fischer regards Menestho (Moller) and Liostonda (G. 0. Sars) 

 as only subgenera of Eulimella (Forbes), and this view is adopted by Tryon 

 in the eighth volume of his Manual of Conchology. Verrill, however, thinks 

 that Liostomia is a synonym of Menestho. 



Menestho striatula (Couthouy). 



Pyramis striatula, Cout\ouy (1838). 

 Menestho albula, Gould (1870) ; non Moller. 

 Odostomia striatula., Verrill (1880). 



Grand Manan Island, "in the laminarian and coralline zones" (Stimpson) ; 

 Bay of Fundy (Verrill); fishing banks off Halifax, rare (Willis) ; off Grande 

 Greve, Gaspe Bay, on stones, in about 20 fathoms, three living adult 

 specimens, dredged by the writer in 1867.
