SHELL: Elongate-ovate, with short spire and elongated, narrow 

 aperture, which is typically longer than the spire ; whorls flattened, 

 elongated, very flat-sided and sloping, especially the body whorl which 

 is cylindrical ; spire sharply accuminated ; whorls 5*/2 to 6 ; body whorl 

 elongated, flattened, roundly shouldered; aperture long and narrow, 

 slightly expanded ; axis strongly gyrate ; umbilical region with a very 

 minute, narrow chink; sculpture and nuclear whorls as in stagnalis 

 appressa.

TYPES : Chicago Academy of Sciences, 5 specimens, No. 24554. 



TYPE LOCALITY: Tomahawk Lake, Oneida County, Wisconsin. 



ANIMAL : Similar to that of stagnalis appressa in form ; in color 

 varying from yellow to jet black (see ante, page 45 for notes on the 

 animal of this race). 



JAW : Similar to that of stagnalis appressa. 



RADULA: Formula ^ T + *!* + +t + + j2 T +V-V 

 (39-1-39) ; the teeth are similar in form to those of stagnalis ap- 

 pressa; there are but fifteen laterals, in this respect differing from 

 both appressa and sanct&marice which have respectively nineteen and 

 eighteen laterals ; the intermediate teeth are double those of stagnalis 

 and sanctcemarice, and the total number of teeth is less. 



GENITALIA : Similar to those of stagnalis appressa ; the penis-sac 

 retractors are two in number, the penis retractor inserted in the pos- 

 terior retractor, as figured on plate XIV, figure A, 2 ; this arrange- 

 ment of the retractor muscles allies this race with appressa rather than 

 with sanctcemaria, in which there is a distinct penis retractor (see 

 plate XIV, figure B). A specimen gave the following measurements 

 (dissection No. 24552) :
