268, Verz. Phil, 1S98, no. 150. 

 Hah. — Ponape (Kubary)^. 



Here, as well as at Guam, Mariannes, most probably introduced 

 from the Philippine Islands, on which it is widely distributed.

hoijoleuenms, Ad., Gen., p. 203. 



Hah. — Hogolu = Ruk (Horabron et Jacquinot, Kubary). 



Prof. V. Martens cites O. Finsch as the collector of this species, 



but as the late Mr. Kubary told me, he gave the shells collected by 



him at Rule to Mr. Finsch, who himself did not collect on that island. 



The soft parts of this mollusc have not been studied, but the 



sculpture of the shell agrees with that of Hemipleeta rather than that 



of Rhijsota. 



Fam. TROCHOMORPHIDAE. 



6.— Tpoehomoppha (Nigritella) approximata (Le GuilL). 



Helix approximata, Le GuilL, Rev. Zool., 1842, p. 139. — Pfr.,

 Tryon, I.e., t. 18, figs. 66 — 67. 



Hah. — Hogolu = Ruk (Hombron et Jacquinot, Kubary). 



The habitats Ternate and Sandwich Islands, as given by Le 

 Guillou and Pfeiffer, are certainly erroneous.
