Mytilus, see Avictda. 



Mytilus edulis, L. — This is a species which Seiihor Nobre gives under var. 



M. galloprovincialis. Johnson's collection contains two valves. I have 

 several, chiefly young, but all got in circumstances and with the appear- 

 ances of having been brought in ballast. Belonging to the North Pacific, 

 probably, and under diverse forms and names from BafSn's Bay to the 

 Mediterranean, its presence in Madeira is not improbable, but I am 

 not sure that Senhor Nobre, on review of its claims, still supports 

 them.
