almost to form a connecting link between that spe- 
cies and H. palliata. The larger specimens are hard- 
ly inferior in size to individuals of the last-named 
species, which they closely resemble. Large speci- 
mens, without teeth on the outer lip, also resemble 
the species which I have called Hxrix dentifera, but 
that species never has the lip teeth, and is not. so 
much depressed. A favorite place of resort of this 
species is under flat stones about neglected quarries. 
The first publication of a description of this shell 
was by Mr. Say, in the _Place referred to, in 1821; 
the next year a second appeared, by Lamarck, in the 
first edition of his Animauz sans Vertébres, under 
the name of Hxuix linguifera, reference being made 
to Férussae's Histoire des Mollusques, which was 
not then published. «Mr. Say's name Mone therefore 
to be preferred.
