288 ABIDA. 



fleeted ; columella [i. e., parietal wall] callous by the continua- 

 tion of the peristome which covers it, one-folded ; summit ob- 

 tuse. The first four whorls increase progressively, the others 

 are nearly equal except the last, which terminates in a con- 

 traction. Height 3 lines, diam. 1 line. It is distinct [from 

 P. granum and secale] by the arrangement of the folds, the 

 contraction of the aperture and the continuation of the peri- 

 stome, which has 6 or 7 folds, counting that of the columella 

 (Michaud) .

According to Caziot, "the Pupa pyrenearia extends, in 

 various forms (which have been made, I think erroneously, 

 into species), far to the east, and even penetrates to the Medi- 

 terranean region. Thus, P. vergnesiana (Ch.) Kstr. and P. 

 aulusensis Fag. are found in the valley of Salat. In the valley 

 of the Ariege and its affluents, also the P. vergnesiana. In the 

 valley of the Aude, P. leptospira West. In the valley of the 

 Agly and on Mt. Alaric, P. attenuata Fag."
