Cylindrella is represented in the United States by nine species, but restric- 
ted to Florida, Texas, Mexico, and California. They are : — poeyana (Pfr.), 
j^'una (Gould), coahidlensis (Binney), belonging to the subgenus Gongylo^ 
stoma ; romeri (Pfr.), goldfussi (Menke), remondi (Gabb), pfeifferi (Menke), 
irregularis (Gabb), and neweomhiana (Gabb), belonging to Holospira : all 
are figured. Tryon, Am. .lourn. Conch, iii. pi. 21. figs. 27-33.

The jaws of most of the genera of slugs being known, the 
Recorder agrees with Dr.Mdrch that they are better distributed 
according to this character among the shell-bearing snails than 
kept together in a separate family ; therefore Limax and PhilO’- 
mycus are placed here, and Avion with the Odontognatha.

Limax variegatus (Drap.). Identical with this European species is Limacus
