The Aplysiidae are continued in the Marine series. The new genus 

 Paiaplysia (type Aplysia pipei-.ita, Smith) is fully described. A new section of 

 I'etalifcia, Gray, is proposed under the name of Pseiidaplysia, type rhyllaplysia 

 puiictiilata, Tap. -Can. The following are new species : — Dolahrifcva jacksonicnsis 

 (N. S. Wales), D. nicaraguana (Nicaragua), and D. s'a'i/tii (W. Indies). Sev-eral 

 useful synopses of species are given under their respective genera. 



In the second series, the part opens with a key to the sub-genera of 

 Amis, of which EudoUchotis is now proposed for A. distorta, Brug., and allies. 

 After an enumeration of the species of Aiiris, we pass to Bulimulus, Leach : 

 this is divided into three groups — (a) apical whorls smooth ; (b) apical 

 whorls irregularly wrinkled subvertically, or with the wrinkles wavy, dislo- 

 cated or variously broken into granules ; (c) apical whorls with regular, 

 straight vertical riblets. Such a divi.sion is also in agreement with the 

 geographical distribution. The first of these divisions, containing the single 

 sub-genus Bostryx, occupies the remainder of the part : several divisions of 

 the sub-genus are used, of which Gcocenis (type B. columeUaris, Reeve) is new.
