 right side rather behind' the right tentacles: no dart nor vesi-

Say described the animal ; Dr. Wyman, in the Boston Journ. 

 Nat. Hist. iv. 416, and in the Terrestrial Air-breathing Mollusks 

 of the United States, gives the anatomy of the Oleacina trun- 

 cata, the North American species ; Morelet described the animal 

 of Glandina carminensis {Journ. Conch, ii. 1851, 27. t. 1), and 

 Dr. Louis Raymond the anatomy of the Algerian species, O. Al- 

 gira {Journ. Conch. 1853, 14. t. 1), showing the uniform struc- 

 ture of these species. Dr. Raymond observes, the tongue is very 

 similar to that of Testacellus, rough, with small inclined spines. 

 These spines are acute, resistent, and adherent by a moderately 

 sized base. He considers " Testacella as a Glandina with a ru- 

 dimentary shell." 



" The teeth, on the surface of the tongue, are sharp pointed, 

 elongated and somewhat recurved, arranged in lines 'en chevron,' 

 the apex being tUrected backwards. There are no teeth on the 

 median hne, corresponding to the axis of the tongue ; and in this 

 respect it differs from many of the Pulmoniferous Gasteropoda, 

 in which a range of median symmetrical teeth is generally found 

 to exist." — Wyman, Bost. Journ. iv. 416. pi. 2.'i. f. 1.
