ing obtusely or in a somewhat truncated form, obtuse ante- 
riorly. Back convex, more flat when fully extended. Integ- 
uments with irregular vermiform glands, anastomosing with 
each other and,having a general longitudinal direction. Man- 
tle covering the whole body. Foot expanded at its margin, 
and visible beyond the sides of the mantle; no locomotive 
disk. Respiratory orifice near the head, some way to the rear 
of the right eye-peduncle. Anal orifice contiguous to anda 
little above and in advance of the pulmonary orifice. Orifice 
of organs of generation behind and below the right eye-pe- 
duncle. Without terminal mucus pore. No external or internal 
shell.” (W.G. Binney.)* Jawarched, ends blunt, median pro- 
jection strong, anterior surface with a carina and either ribbed 
or striate. Lingual membrane (see below). Pedal grooves

Animal; With a long, rounded or flattened body, trun- 
cated anteriorly and obtusely pointed, and somewhat flattened 
posteriorly; mantle covering the entire body except a small 
rim on the edge of the foot; color whitish, spotted and clouded 
with blackish spots which form three scarcely distinguishable 
longitudinal bands, one in the-center and one on either side; 
the spots are irregular and anastomose with each other in va- 
rious places along the bands; the lower margin of the mantle 
is yellowish and the foot is yellowish-white; mouth encircled 
by a row of papille; eye-peduncles not long, stout, blackish, 
eyes situated on the upper part of the bulb-shaped enlarge- 
ment at their extremity; tentacles short, stout, whitish, more or 
less conical; the cuticle is beset with numerous vermiform 
glands which anastomose more or less with each other, and 
extend ina longitudinal direction. When the animal is in lo- 
comotion these glands contract and a thin, watery mucus is 
exuded, giving the surface a glistening, undulatory appearance, 
which is peculiar to this species. The foot is not very broad 
and extends a trifle beyond the mantle posteriorly. Genera-
