lli/alina indentata, Sdjj. — This spocies is very rare here. I have 

 taken occasional si)erimens in Billings' bush on this side of the Ottawa, 

 but it is least rare in Hull, where it occurs with Z. inoniatus. The shell 

 is highly polished and transparent, and the lines radiating from the 

 minute umbilicus distinguish it from allied species. The largest speci- 

 men taken measures 4:'8 hy 4-5 mm. Those usually met with are only 

 a little smaller. 



U jjalina hinnpijana, Morse. — Tn a letter to Mr. Fletcher, Mr. Heron 

 stated that he had found this shell shortly before leaving Ottawa. It 

 has not, however, appeared in the Club lists, nor in any list of (^ana- 

 dian shells. In looking over shells collected in Billings' bush I found 

 several specimens which I thought at first were immature //. viridulu, 

 though remarking their difference in color. A careful examination of 

 these shells and a comparison with typical specimens from Maine, 

 kindly furnished by Mr. T. H. Aldrich, of Birmingham, Ala., prove 

 them to be //. hinnei/ana. It is pellucid and polished like J/, inden- 

 tata, but has an open umbilicus. Greater diameter 3-3, lesser 3, height 

 I'l mm. 



Pseudoh.yalina minuscida, Binneij. — This was recorded from Eard- 

 ley, Quebec, in the report of the conchological branch, published in 

 Transactions No. 3 of this Club. I have since taken only two shells, 

 but have no note of the locality where they were obtained. It seems 

 very rare. The shells found have a greater diameter of 2G mm. 



rseudoJi jjalina e.rigua, ^timpson. — In moss collected in Dow's 

 swamp by Mr. Harrington in the fall of 1883, this species was found in 

 considerable numbers. I have met with it in Billings' bush under bark 

 and decaying leaves, and in similar situations in the hills northward. 

 Mar.y of our smaller shells appear to great advantage under the micro- 

 scope, but in the delicacy and intricacy of its sculptured surface this is 

 perhaps the most beautiful of all. It is very minute, its greater 

 diametet being only 2 mm. 



Stridtxra viiliiiin, Morse. — Mr. Heron record.s this shell in a foot 

 note to his paper, and he informs me that he found it in Billings' Bush. 

 I have searched for it there duiing several years an<l obtained only 

 thi'ce specimens. In the moss from Dow's Swamp two others were 

 found. It must be regarde.1 as very i-are in this vicinity. Under the
