upright, and thus are more foreshortened in a view from 

 above. In both species there are five marginal teeth. The 

 ectocones in both species are merely upright pegs, scarcely or 

 not at all recurved. I examined two radulse of each species. 

 The figures are drawn from corresponding parts of the 

 radulae, and to the same scale. 



B. krausseana is a more slender, longer form than imitatrix, 

 with more whorls, but it is evidently allied. 



4. B. ANGULIFERA (Gundlach). Vol. xv, pi. 42, figs. 87, 88. 

 Shell cylindric-tapering, whitish, thin, truncate, the sum- 

 mit about half the greatest width of the shell or less. Sur- 

 face glossy, finely and regularly thread-striate, the strict 

 smooth, as wide as the intervals. Whorls 8 to 9^, moder- 

 ately convex, with a well-impressed suture, the last whorl free 

 in front, the rather short neck flattened above, and a little 

 descending; more or less visibly subangular below, the outer 

 surface flattened, tapering downwards. Aperture round- 

 ovate, the outer margin subangular; peristome white, reflexed, 

 wide on the columellar side, narrow along the outer margin. 

 Axis simple and straight. Length 9-10.5, diam. 2.4-2.7 mm.

The shape of the mouth and of the free portion of the last 

 whorl are characteristic. In texture and sculpture it is like 

 Urocoptis presasiana, and I formerly placed the species in 

 Cochlodinella; but having examined the dentition (pi. 9, fig. 

 1), I find that it is a Brachypodella. See under B. imitatrix,. 

 a Haitian species indistinguishable from angulifera in shell 

 characters. 



5. B. PORTORICENSIS (Pfeiffer). PI. 15, figs. 7, 8. 



Shell cylindric below, the upper half slowly tapering to a 

 rather wide truncation; whitish-corneous. Surface slightly 

 glossy, densely sculptured with subvertical, somewhat arcuate,,
