In the most recent and among the most valuable of the contributions to 

 our knowledge of local faunas, ' MoUusques de File de la Reunion, par M. 

 G. P. Deshayes,' Paris, 1883, occur very unexpectedly the following species 

 connected with the West Coast, either by name or by identity. The list of 

 560 species from this little island, which the researches of M. Maillard has 

 brought to light, contains several West Indian forms and a large number 

 known in the Central Pacific and even the Sandwich Islands.

 rate fauna of the West Coast was only known through sources liable to error, 

 the collectors having visited other regions b'esides Oregon and California, and 

 the species described by American authors being but imperfectly understood 

 in this country. The large accession to the number of authentic species, the 

 important elimination of synonyms, and the assignment of ascertained loca-
