Shield strongly granular-rugose, the respiratory orifice nearly median on its 
right margin ; tail acute, with small gland; reddish gray, the body somewhat 
clouded with black, the shield paler, clouded, or more usually with a dark 
band on each side above the respiratory orifice, converging in an elliptic form ;

A species of the Pacific Province, Straits of De Fuca to Oakland, California. 
The characteristic of this species is the light dorsal band, which is not 
present in P. Hemphilli. It has the broad vagina, stout, short, cylindri- 
cal penis sac, and genital bladder of P. Hemphilli, as well as the foliated 
reticulations. 
In the many living and alcoholic specimens which I have examined, I have 
failed to detect any appearance of a caudal mucus pore, which Dr. Cooper is 
confident of having observed, excepting in eight individuals out of thirty col- 
lected by Mr. Hemphill on San Juan Island. 
Many individuals examined by me are excided as described under Phena- 
carton foliolatus. 
Figure 1 of Plate IIT. of 3d Suppl. was drawn from a specimen received from 
Dr. Cooper. It represents the true Andersom, distinguished by a light dorsal 
band, and by genitalia such as I have described for P. Hemphilli. The same 
form, also received from Dr. Cooper, is drawn by Mr. Cockerell on Plate VII. 
Fig. ©. Mr. Cockerell has shown me that I have confounded with it another 
species, which he proposes to call P. fasciatum. See next species. 
Specimens collected by Mr. Hemphill at Old Mission, Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, 
appear to agree with specimens of this species received from Dr. Cooper. 
The jaw is low, wide, slightly arcuate, with over 12 broad, stout ribs, denticu- 
lating either margin. The lingual membrane is given in Plate IT. Fig. 2, of 
3d Suppl. The central and lateral teeth are slender and graceful. The latter 
have, apparently, a second inner cutting point, as is found in Limax agrestis. 
I have so figured it, hoping to draw attention to it, and thus settle the question 
of its being there. On Plate IX. I have given enlarged views of the surface, 
drawn by Mr. Arthur F. Gray. (See Explanation of Plate IX. Figs. I and J 
of 3d Suppl.)
