This species w r as originally described from Porto Hico. It has also 

 been reported from Haiti, St. Kitts, Dominica and Mexico. The 

 Mexican specimens, supposed to be liliaceus, have been referred

 species is thinner than liliaceus, with the body whorl 'more tapering

 solid and cretaceous in adult specimens. Numerous specimens are 

 before me from Porto Rico, but I have seen none from Haiti, St. 

 Kitts or Dominica.
