LIST OF MOLLUSES FBOM AMARILLO, TEXAS. 



BT J. B. HENDERSON, JR. 



The " Pan Handle " of Texas is a flat, treeless plain where the 

 traveler could make good use of nautical instruments. I could find 

 no vestige of moUuscan life there except in the deep canons, a few 

 of which are encountered on a journey across the " Handle." The 

 following is a list of species taken from one of these canons at a point 

 about 15 miles S. E. of Amarillo. All were found in drift debris — 

 none actually alive and crawling about. The identifications are by 

 Pilsbry and Vanatta. 



Zonitoides singleyana Pils. 



Zonitoides minuscula Binn. 



Vallonia perspectiva Sterki. 



Vallonia gracilicosta Reinh. 



Helicodiscus parallelus Say. 



Pupoides marginatus Say. 



Bifidaria pellucida hordeacella Pils. 



Bifidaria tappaniana C. B. Ad. 



Bifidaria armifera Say. 



Bifidaria procera cristata P. & V. 



Vertigo ovata Say. 



Planorbis parvus Say. 



A few specimens of Physa, Lymnaea and Pisidium too young for 

 identification were also found.
