530 ; the fauna is essentially that of Southern Carniolia. Note on the 
same, with some new species indicated but not described, by A. Stossicii, 
Boll. Soc. Adr. ii. pp. 1-10. 
Croatia. 62 terrestrial, 6 freshwater, and 2 submarine species, collected 
by E. Beitter, enumerated by BOttqeu, JB. mal. Ges. vii. pp. 224-235, 
with some new species, 
Montenegro, Southern Dalmatia, and Southern Croatia. 60 terrestrial 
and 10 freshwater shells, among the former 3 new, collected by E. 
Beitter, enumerated by Bottger, Ber. olfenb. Ver. xix.-xxi. pp. 100-115. 
Greece. 19 species of terrestrial shells (none new) collected by J. von 
Bedriaga on the Cyclades, in Morea and Bumelia, are enumerated by 
Bottger, 1. c. pp. 86-99. Two new species of Helix described by P. 
Godet, Bull. Soc. Neuch. xii. pp. 24-28. 
8. Western and Central Asia. 
Transcaucasia, Siberia, and Central Asia. Several species of Helix and 
Buliminus, among which some new, described and figured by v. Martens, 
Conchol. MT. pp. 6-18, 24-32, pis. iii., iv. & vi. 
Russian Armenia. 19 terrestrial and 12 freshwater species collected by 
A. Brandt and some others from the adjacent shores of the Caspian Sea, 
are enumerated by E. v. Martens, Mel. biol. x. pp. 379-400. The new 
or remarkable species will be mentioned below. The following species 
have been found in Lake Goktscha : — Planorbis carinatus var. dubius 
(Hartm.), marginatus (Drap.), albus (Mull.), Limncea stagnalis varr. 
lacustris (Stud.), turgida (Menke), and gohtschana (Mouss.), L. lagotis 
(Schrank), ovata YSiX. papilla (Hartm.), and Pisidium pusillum (Jenyns). 
There is therefore a remarkable likeness to the shells of the lakes of 
Switzerland. 
Some notes on the Mollusca of the Lake Tschaldyr-Gol, by A. Brandt, 
Zool. Anz. iii. p. 114. They are very scarce, because the lake offers very 
few localities in which water-plants grow. 
Talysch. Some new species by Bottger, JB. mal. Ges. vii. pp. 379-383. 
Lake of Tiberias. Note on its freshwater shells by Lartet, C. B. xci. 
p, 500, including 3 new species of Unio. 
9. Northern Africa. 
Morocco. 105 terrestrial and 26 freshwater species enumerated, with 
valuable critical notes about many of them, by A. Morelet ; 39 are 
peculiar, the rest Algerian or Spanish. Helix lancer ottensis and argo- 
^ nautula (W. B.) have only been found on the western coast of Morocco 
and the Canary Islands, but it is impossible to give good reasons for attri- 
buting their origin to either locality. H. dehnii was first found among 
gum arabic, which is only produced farther south, in the tropical parts of 
Africa, northwards to Cape Blanco ; this seems to indicate a distribution 
across the desert. An historical sketch of the knowledge of the Moroccan 
fauna is given as introduction. J. de Conch, xxviii. pp. 1-83.
