Anatomy and Physiology .

pomatia, iaiuccinea amphibia, Paludina vivipara and impura [Bi-

of Helix adspersa (Miill.) are : — tliat in the hermaphrodital gland 
the follicles of the male and female organs are not interinvagi- 
nated, nor is the efferent channel of the one contained within 
that of the other, but is simple and common for both ; the use 
of the flagellum is for secretion of spermatophores ; and by one
