GLYPHIOCBRAS (BEYRICHOCERAS) TRUNCATUM. L65 



Remarks. — The specimens of this species that have come under my notice, 

 though much larger than any previously recorded, are unfortunately for the most 

 part much distorted. They come chiefly from the Cork and Limerick districts. 

 None have been found to my knowledge in the county of Dublin or Kildare. 

 Phillips's figured type came from Bolland in Lancashire, but the first individuals 

 described belonging to this species were collected at Blackrock, in the county of 

 Cork ; these were described by J. Sowcrby (' Min. Conch.,' i, p. 83) under the name 

 of EUvpsolites ovatus, the generic name having been suggested by the ellipticity 

 of the shells, which was assumed by Sowerby to be natural, instead of being 

 artificially produced by rock pressure as was subsequently recognised. 



Localities. — Little Island and Midleton, county of Cork ; Ballyduff (Dungarvan), 

 county of Waterford ; Ballynacarriga, county of Limerick.
