294 PROCEEDINGS OF THE MALACOLOGICAL SOCIETY. 



18. Ceeion ALVEAEniM, Dill. — With the preceding;, but sparinj2;ly. 

 Neither of the two last names are mentioned by Mr. Maynard : the 



shells could not have escaped his notice ; they must therefore have been 

 split up and described under the following names which are in the 

 author's list for New Providence : Stropkia Curtissii, Thorndikci, 

 Coryi, neglecta, Carlotta, robusta, lentiginosa, crassicostata, algava — 

 all new species. 



19. SxENOGYRA (Surulina) octona, L. — Abundant in damp places, 

 always on the ground under rubbish and stones. Probably the most 

 widely distributed of all land mollusca. 



20. Stenogyra (Melaniella) gracillima, Pfr. — Only three speci- 

 mens found. 



21. SucciNEA ocHRACiNA, Guud. — Abundant in one spot on the 

 Baillou Road, outside the Government House Garden. 



22. SucciNEA, sp.? — Sparingly here and there on walls near Nassau. 



23. CxENoroMA Bahamense, Pfr. — Under stones, etc., everywhere. 



24. ScKAsicHiLA Bahamensis, Pfr. 



25. Aloadia minima, D'Orb. Dead shells of the last two species 

 are pretty common in certain situations ; live ones are difficult to 

 find, as they live an inch or two underground at the roots of 

 various bushes. The mosquitoes help considerably towards the 

 creatures' preservation by almost driving the unhappy collector 

 mad ! The Bahama specimens of A. minima are three times the 

 size of the Cuban ones I have seen. 



Five other species have been recorded from New Providence, but 

 I did not find them, viz. : — 



Hyalinia Gimdlachi, Pfr.

 Stenogyra octo7ioides, Ad. 

 Cerion Gxihernatoria, Crosse. 

 Cistula scabrosa, Humph.

 Isle, St. Salvador, Exuma, Long Cay, Duck Cay, Bagged Isle, Berry
