 p. 28^. [Ety. proper 

 name.] While Meris- 

 tella is distinguished 

 from Merista by having 

 no shoe-lifter process ; Whitfieldia is dis- 

 tinguished from both by the absence 

 of those'peculiar ring-shaped processes 

 attached to the loop, and has instead 

 only a short, bifurcating process, where 

 in Merista and Meristella the rings are 

 formed. These internal differences in 

 the spirals seem to distinguish the 

 genera. Type W. tumida.
