BULLETIN OF THE 
Patula strigosa, var. rugosa, HEMPHILL. 
Shell umbilicated, elevated or globosely depressed, of a dull brown ash-color; 
surface rough, covered with coarse irregular oblique striæ, and microscopic re- 
volving lines; whorls 5, convex, with or without one or two narrow faint revolv- 
ing bands. In most of the specimens the bands are obsolete; spire elevated, 
obtusely conical; suture well impressed; umbilicus large, deep; aperture nearly 
round; peristome simple, thickened, its terminations approaching and joined by 
a thin callus. Height of the largest specimen $ inch, greatest diameter 1 inch. 
Height of the smallest specimen 4 inch, greatest diameter ¢ inch. 
New Brigham City, Utah. 
A large rough robust form, with very convex whorls. Some of the specimens 
so closely resemble solitaria, Say, that one not well acquainted with both forms 
would be easily deceived, and refer it to that species. In its adolescent state the 
lip is very thin or easily broken, and on the surface of the adult shells these frac- 
tures give it a rough and uneven appearance.

Patula strigosa, var. carnea, HEMPHILL. 
Shell umbilicated, greatly depressed, dark horn-color, rather solid, shining, sur- 
face somewhat uneven and covered with irregular oblique striæ; whorls 54, con- 
vex, the last faintly subcarinated in the depressed specimens, falling in front, 
sometimes faintly banded, but most of the specimens are plain and without bands ; 
spire subconical, apex obtuse; suture well impressed, umbilicus large; aperture 
circular; peristome simple, thickened, its terminations well approached and joined 
by a callus. Height % inch, greater diameter #, lesser $ inch.

Patula strigosa, var. fragilis, HemPnHILL. 
Shell umbilicated, elevated or globosely depressed, translucent, thin, fragile, 
somewhat shining, of a dark horn-color, surface covered by fine oblique striæ; 
whorls 5, convex, the last descending in front and striped by two dark chestnut 
bands, one above and the other below the periphery ; suture well impressed ; aper- 
ture oblique; peristome simple, thickened; umbilicus moderate, deep, partially 
covered by the reflected peristome at the columella. Height of the largest speci- 
men % inch, greatest diameter 4 inch, lesser Ẹ inch.
