Black Warrior and Oahawba livers, Alabama; Pine Barren Creek, 

 Escambia County, Florida. 



^ So written in Proceedings ; no doubt a typographical error, as the species was 

 named after Brumby. 



2 The species placed here are puzzling and seem to stand between Unio and 

 Pleurobema. The color and the beak sculpture incline me to place them with the 

 latter, and some of the species seem to show relationship with such forms as P. 

 ;pudica and bigbyana.
