ZOOLOGICAL LITERATURE. 
Tectibranchiata. 
Jeffreys, Brit. Oonch. iy. p. 409, says that tlie name Pomatobranchia 
was published by Lov^n in the same year as that of Pleurohranchiata by 
Gray. This is an error. The name Pomatobranchia was introduced by 
Schweigger as early as 1820, and is merely a philological correction of 
Cuvier’s name TectibrancheSf which dates from 1817, and comprises as chief 
types Pleurobi'anchus^ Aplysia^ and Bulla. 
ToRNATELLIDiE. 
Actceon tornatilis (L.) with three varieties — subulatus (S. Wood), tenellus 
(Lov^n), and bullceformis. Jeffreys, Brit. Conch, iv. pp. 433-436.

CvLICHNIDiE. 
Cylichna. The British species are, according to Jeffreys; — 1. acuminata 
(Brug.)j 2. nitidula (JLoY^rx) ) 3. umbilicata (Mont.), with conulm (S.Wood) 
as a variety j 4. oylindracea (Ponn.)j 6. alba (Brown). Brit. Conch, iv. 
pp. 410-418. 
Utriculus (Brown) is regarded as a distinct genus by Jeffreys, differing 
from Cylichna by the tentacles being separate, the eyes distinct, the gizzard 
horny, and the shell having a visible spire with a mamillary apexj Amphi- 
sphyra (Lov^u) is identical with it. British species : — mammillatus (Phil.), 
truncatulus (Brug.)=J?w7/a truncata (Adams), obtusus (Mont.), ventrosus
