  It 
  is 
  difficult 
  to 
  define 
  the 
  limits 
  of 
  this 
  species. 
  Some 
  of 
  the 
  names 
  

   quoted 
  as 
  synonyms 
  simply 
  refer 
  to 
  immature 
  shells, 
  while 
  others 
  refer 
  

   to 
  fully 
  developed 
  shells 
  quite 
  inseparable 
  from 
  A. 
  ampullacea. 
  There 
  

   are 
  others, 
  such 
  as 
  Perahensis, 
  De 
  Morgan, 
  Wellesleyana, 
  De 
  Morgan, 
  

   turhinis. 
  Lea, 
  and 
  Dalyi, 
  Blanford, 
  which 
  would 
  perliaps 
  more 
  properly 
  

   be 
  regarded 
  as 
  varieties 
  or 
  synonyms, 
  but, 
  being 
  in 
  some 
  doubt, 
  I 
  think 
  

   it 
  best 
  at 
  present 
  to 
  include 
  them 
  in 
  the 
  list 
  as 
  species.
