25. Gorhula velata, Schafh., is according to Giimbel (Neues Jahrb. f. Min- 

 eralogies &c., 1865, p. 149), identical with Crassatella Fencma, (xiimbel, an eocene 

 species, (Bayer. Alpengeb., 1861, p. 662). 



Instead of (7. velata read under No. 25, Corbula suhelegans, Briar t et Cornet, 

 (Descript. mineral., &c., de la meule de Bracquegnies, p. 82, pi. v, figs. 17 and 18, 

 in Mem., Cour. Acad. Belgique, vol. xxxiv).

 On page 69 under No, 32, Flicomya, StoL, 1870, note — 



Conrad (Am. Jour. Concb., vol. VI, p. 76,) proposes to substitute for his name 

 Leptomya that of Feriplomya, I do not know the exact date of issue of Part I 

 of vol. VI of the American Journal of Conchology. M;y name Flicomya, substituted 

 for Conrad's Leptomya, was published on 8th September 1870, although the por- 

 tion of letter press containing it was already printed about the end of January of -f' 

 that year, and the MS. had been prepared at least one year prior to it. 



Conrad adds the figure of the hinge of the type species (Feriplomya) peculiaris, 

 Conrad, (quoted on p. 73 sub-No. 39). Erom this it would seem as if there were 

 a thick, oblique tooth in the left valve passing at its base into a thickening of the 

 posterior hinge margin, a fissure would seem to extend from the beak posteriorly ; 

 of the other right valve only a median spoon-shaped process is figured below the 

 beak. It is possible that I may be mistaken in the interpretation of right and left 

 valve, but that would not be supported by Conrad's reference on p. 76 loc. cit. 

 If I am, however, correct in the interpretation of the figures, the form could hardly 

 be considered as sufficiently distinct from Anatina,

 closely allied to Fh. caudata, Boem.

Page 88, No. 59. The name FanopcBa Sancti-Fetri, Byckholt, is changed by 

 Bosquet-into P. Byckholti, (Liste des foss. du mass. cret. du Limbourg, 1868, extr. 

 du descript. geol. de la Belgique par Devalque, p. 17), but there is no necessity 

 for this change. I have, however, accepted the suggested change of a specific 

 name, where it designates two distinct objects to which the species is referred, such 

 as " montis sancti Fetri,^^
