186 BULLETIN OF THE 



f P. radiolata Pfr. (Bui.), P. Z. S., p. 39, 1849; also Rve. Mon. Part., 

 species 6, pi. ii. f. 6", 6", 1850. Guam, Cuming. New Ireland, Dr. Cox. 



f P. Raiatensis Garr. Mss. in litt. Raiatea, Garr. This shell = P. dentifera, 

 ■with a rose apex. In two quarts of P. dentifera belonging to the duplicates of 

 the Pease collection about one sixth of the number possessed the rose apex ; they 

 did not differ in other respects from P. dentifera. 



f P. Reeveaua Pfr., P. Z. S., p. 137, 1852. Solomon's Island, Dr. Cox. 

 Large dextral specimens of P. Otaheitana from Tahiti, of a yellow color, red apex, 

 and a pillar tooth, agree with types of P. Reeveana in the British Museum, and 

 also with the figure of P. Reeveana in Chemnitz. 



t P. recta Pse., A. J. C, iv. p. 155, pi. 12, f. 8, 1868. Mountains Mauui 

 and Nukahiva, Marquesas = P. repanda. I possess a number of specimens of 

 this species from the collection of the late William H. Pease. It is very variable 

 in shape, color, and texture. Some specimens are yellowish-white, solid, and 

 covered with a greenish epidermis, easily rubbed off, with a perpendicular aper- 

 ture, and the inner margin of the aperture waved or roughened. This variety 

 represents P. recta Pse. ; others are pale yellow, white, or yellowish-white, often 

 thin and inflated, with the aperture oblique or perpendicular, and slightly rough- 

 ened ; others, again, are pale red, with the basal half several shades deeper in 

 color. These two latter varieties represent P. repauda. In one and a half pints 

 of duplicates in the collection of William H. Pease, the specimens exhibited a 

 perfect inosculation of these apparently dissimilar species. 



f P. recta Pse. Mss., Raiatea, Garr. Coll. Pse. (non P. recta Pse. in A. J. C). 

 This shell is also synonymous with P. Peaseana, Garr. Mss. (non Peasii, Cox). 

 = P. labiata Pse. Mss. in A. N. S., ex auctore, which latter = P. dentifera 

 var. 



P. Recluziam Petit, J. C, v. p. 170, pi. 7, f. 5, 1850 = P. actor. 



+ P. repaxda Pfr., P. Z. C, p. 98, 1855. New Hebrides ? Dr. Cox. Water- 

 color drawings from types in the British Museum agree with specimens from 

 Marquesas. See P. recta Pse. in A. J. C. 



f P. rosea Brod., P. Z. S., p. 125, 1832. Huaheine, Garr. 



f P. rubescens Rve., Mon. Part., No. 12, pi. 3, f. 12, 1850= P. Otaheitana

 riculata var.

 Since the publication of my Catalogue of the Genus Partula Fir. in May of this 

 year, and while the present Bibliographic Catalogue was in press, Prof, von Mar- 

 tens has published in Conchologia Mittheilung for 1881 the description and 

 figure of a Partula from the island of Ponape, which he has no doubt is P. rufa 

 Less., and which he makes synonymous with 1'. Guamensia Pfr. The figures o( 

 his shell materially differ in size and form from P. Guamensis Pfr., and. in mj 

 opinion, approximate dextral examples of P. Upolensis Biouss. Bias., which = 

 depauperated examples of P. bulimoides Lew. | the smaller sue, conk form, wide 

 umbilicus, and violet color within, together with other characters enumerated,
