species, but they may well represent independent developments, 
especially since they also superficially resemble Pupillide, to 
which they are not at all related. Thus the tendency of modern 
research will probably be to emphasize rather than diminish the 
separateness of the Ethiopian fauna. 
It is rather a shock, at first, to see the African slugs hereto- 
fore called Veronicella or Vaginula referred to Levicaulis and 
Pleuroprocta, names proposed several years ago by Simroth. It 
can hardly be doubted, however, that the Veronicellide must 
be held to include a number of genera, in spite of the great ex- 
ternal similarity. Dr. Pilsbry is in error, I think, in calling 
the family Vaginulide, on the stated ground that the type of 
Veronicella has not been rediscovered. As a matter of fact the 
actual specimen described by Blainville is still to be seen in the 
British Museum, as was explained in Conchologist, 1893, pp. 
43-44. It was collected by Sloane in Jamaica, and is properly 
called Veronicella sloanit (Cuvier).
