SMITH : KON MARINE MOLLTJSCA OF ST. VINCENT. 305 



Yar. fasciafa. (PL XXI, Fig. 9.) Like the type, but banded with 

 purplish black or purplish red. There are usually four bands on the 

 body-whorl — one at the middle, one half-way between it and the 

 suture, the third equally distant below the middle, and the fourth 

 around the umbilicus. Mr. H. H. Smith's note on this variety reads : 

 *' Leeward side, dry forest below 1,000 feet, on leaves (wet weather) or 

 at roots of trees and in crevices of rocks (dry weather). The animal 

 is green, like the allied [typical] form, and this is probably a variety, 

 but is found in much dryer situations, principally on the ridges 

 between Cumberland and Largon. Rarely the two forms are associ- 

 ated; nowhere common." Bland has referred to this banded form. 



£. lucidus, Eeeve, is undoubtedly the same as this species, but 

 whether it is also identical with B. lucidus, Beck, as stated by 

 Pfeiiier, is somewhat uncertain. Allowing for inaccuracy of drawing, 

 the figures in Ferussac's work (Hist. Xat. Moll., vol. iv, Atlas, 

 pi. cxliiS, figs. 9, 10), upon which B. lucidus was founded, may 

 possibly represent this species. 



Fresh specimens of B. stramineus are almost of a golden yellow, 

 but this brightness soon fades, leaving the tint very much whiter. 



9. BuLiMULUS (Drym^us) ViNCENrnsrus (Pfeiffer). 



Bulimus Fincentinus, Pfr, — Proc. Zool. Soc. 1846, p. 30; Mou. Hel., 

 vol. ii, p. 30; Reeve, Conch. Icon., vol. v, figs. 366a, b. 



mb.—St. Vincent (Pfr.) ; Trinidad (Guppy). 



Of this species Mr. Guppy remarks (1882) : "I have some suspicion 

 that B. Vincentinus is not confined to Trinidad, as lately supposed, 

 but is also found in St. Vincent." 



10. BuLiMULUs (Leptomerus) limnoides (Ferussac). 



Helix limnoides, Fer. — Prodrome, p. 57, Xo. 393, pi. cxlii, figs. 9, 10. 



Hah.—^t. Vincent (Fer.). 



The identification of this species is rather uncertain, and a 

 re-examination of Ferussac' s type is most desirable. 



11. BuLiMTTLUs (Thaumastus) exilis (Gmcliu). 



Helix exilis, Gmelin. — Syst. Xat., p. 3668. For synonymy see 

 Pfeiffer's Mon. Hel., vol. ii, p. 224; vol. iii, p. 433; 

 vol. iv, p. 498 ; vol. vi, p. 146. 

 Hah. — St. Vincent (Guilding teste Pfeiffer). 



AcommonWest Indian species; known from Guadeloupe, St. Thomas,
