 The group of shells generally called Zonilcs by American authors is critically 

 reviewed, and Mr. Pilsbry points out that Zonites is confined to European faunas. 

 He divides the American Zonites — so called — into Oniphalina, Raf. (1831), 

 [contains fuliginosa, the reproductive organs of which are figured], Vitrea, Fitz., 

 (1833) [contains arborea, electrina, and indentatd], and Gastrodonta, Alb. (1850) 

 [contains suppressa and libera]. Two new varieties are described of Polygyra 

 tridentata. There is also a preliminary description of Philomycus.

 paper will be invaluable to students of Australasian Chitons.
