Heer Snellen's opinion on the probable synonymy of gilvidorsis, 

 quoted by von Uedemann (I.e. No. 3), is quite justified, for I had 

 already examined the two types side by side, and had made a note 

 that gilvidorsis, Z., must sink as a synonym of tenuis, F. & R. 

 Baron von Hedeniann has sent me the three specimens which 

 were determined for him by Snellen : two are montis-christi, Wlsm., 

 and the third is pumilio ; there is at present no evidence that 

 gilvidorsis occurs in the West Indies.
