Vitrea incisa Pfeiffer. — Barbados (E. A. Smith). Not yet found 

 by author, 



V. implicans Guppy. — Trinidad. It has only been secured in 

 Porter's Wood, St. James. 



Pleurodonte perplexa Ferussac. — Grenada, Trinidad ? Barba- 

 dos (E. A. Smith); Martinique, St. Vincent?, Grenadines. — This seems 

 a common species in Grenada, but no specimens have been met 

 with here to confirm its ever having been collected before. 



P. Isabella Ft^russac. — Cayenne. Found throughout the island 

 in the woods and gullies. Specimens exhibiting a great variety of 

 markings and colourings have been secured, from horn colour with 

 slight markings and light brown lips, to dark brown with an almost 

 black lip, and in a gully close to Malvern Lodge, St. Michael's, 

 some very pretty forms were met with of a clear horn colour with 

 pure white lips, making them the handsomest shells to be found in 

 the island. A very minute parasite belonging to the x^caridoe is 

 generally found on this animal, but the author has not noticed it on 

 any other species. 



P. dentiens Ferussac. ^ Martinique, Dominica, Guadeloupe, 

 Cayenne. Specimens have been found by Mr. E. W. Williams in 

 Pine Wood Estate, St. Michael's, but this has not yet been confirmed 

 by the author. 



Eulota similaris Ferussac — Cuba ? PJrazil, Honolulu. In- 

 troduced ; a very common species. 



Thysanophora turbiniformis Pfeiffer.— Culia, Jamaica. Not 

 yet discovered l)y author. 



T. vortex Pfeiffer. — Cuba, St. Croix, Hayti, Jamaica, St. Thomas, 

 Porto Rico, Bermuda, Georgia, and Florida. Only dead specimens 

 have been obtained up to the present, but in different localities, so 

 it is probable that it is still living in the island. 



Streptaxis deformis Ferussac. — Venezuela, Demerara, Surinam, 

 Trinidad. This has been met with in different parts of the island, in 

 some gardens in Bridgetown in large numbers. 



Strophocheilus^ (Borus) oblongus Miiller. — St. Vincent, To- 

 bago, Trinidad, northern ])arts of South America from New Granada 

 to Brazil. This species lays a white egg about the size of a blackbird's; 

 the white of fresh eggs is largely used as an adhesive for mending 

 china and glass, being superior, it is stated, to any manufactured 

 substance. The snail has been eaten by the natives, but not in recent 

 years. The eggs take from three to four weeks to hatch, and the 

 newly-formed shell is almost transparent. 



Bulimulus tenuissimus Ferussac. — Brazil, Cayenne, etc., 

 Barbados, (Pfr.) Grenada, St. Lucia, Dominica. Not yet met with. 



I Stroplwchcilus must be employed iu place of Bulimics.
