.54. C. B. Adams. — After arranp:inw the duplicate Keigen Collection in the 

 State Museum at Albany, New York, I proceeded to Amherst, Mass., to 

 fctudy the type-collection from which Prof. Adams's book was written. The 

 result is embodied in a " Review of Prof. 0. B. Adams's ' Catalogue of the 

 Shells of Panama,' from the Type Specimens," written for the Zool. Soo. in 

 Jan., and published in the Proceedings for July 1863, pp. 339-369. In this 

 paper the synonymy between the Mazatlan find Panama Catalogues is pointed 

 out, and the species assigned to the modern genera. The following»are the 

 principal corrections needed in the list. Rep. pp. 267-280. The results in 

 the succeeding paragraphs, pp. 280, 281, should be altered accordingly.
