BIBLIOGRAPHICAL NOTICE. 



Fossil Inland Shells from Dtthnaila, Croatia, and Slavonia. By 

 Spiridion Brvsin-a, Director of the Zoolop^ical Department of the 

 National Museum of the Triune Kingdom, &c. «tc. German en- 

 larged edition of the Croatian Memoir in the " Had " of the South- 

 Slavonian Academy of Sciences and Art at Agram, 8vo, pp. 144, 

 with 7 plates. Agram : 1874. (Fossile Binnen-Mollusken aus 

 Dalmatian &c.) 



The collection of fossils here described and illustrated consists of 

 20,000 specimens, from about 30 localities, carefully enumerated. 

 There are 139 species (109 Gasteropoda and 30 Conchifera), of which 

 49 are either new or were little known, and 11 are now much more 

 fully determined than heretofore. Only 10 require either better 

 preserved specimens for illustration or further books of reference for 

 the author to make his determinations certain, namely : — Hyalina, 

 1; Helix, 1; Limntxa, 2; Planorbis, 3; Pisidium, 1; Dreissena, 

 2 species. Of the remaining 129, 13 are still living in Dalmatia, 

 Croatia, or Slavonia, namely : — 



Melanopsis Esperi, Fir. 



acicularis, Fir. 



Lithogljphus fiiscus, Zieg. 

 Bythinia tentaciilatn, L. 

 Valvata piscinalis, Miill. 

 Neritina danubialis, C. Pfeif. 

 Succiuea elegans, Hisso. 



Succinea oblonga, I>rap. 

 Helix pomatia, L. 

 Ancyhis lacuetris, L. 

 Spha;rium lacustre, Mull. 

 Pisidium amnicura, Mi'ill. 

 Dreissena poljmorpha, Pall. 



And 4 live still in other parts of Europe : — 



Melanopsis prsemorsa, L. I Melanopsis maroccana, Chem. 



—^ costata, Fir. \ Hydrobia stagnalis, Bast. 



The remaining 112 species are extinct ; and of these, 24 had been 

 already described by Brongniart, Partsch, Ferussac, Krauss, Fuchs, 

 Bielz, Braun, Thoma?, Hiirnes, and others; whilst 41 have been 

 described mostly by Neumayr in 1869, and by Bnisina in this 

 memoir. The distribution of the species in the Three Kingdoms, and 

 their relationship to recent forms, are carefully shown.
