Bulimus lateralis, Mcnkc. 
Otostoma mvicula. Beck.

Amply distinguished by its extraordinary mode of 
growth, of which an approximation is offered in the 
species which follows. 
Species 359. (Pig. a and b, Mus. Cuming.) 
Bulimus auris-leposis. Bui. testa subpyramidali-omtd, 
basi depresso-convexd, umbilicatd, cmfractihus sex, std)-

Pupa auris-leporis. Gray. 
Bulimus lagotis, Menke. 
Otostoma lagotis. Beck. 
Hab. Brazil. 
The plan of growth and detail of sculpture are the same 
as in the B. namcula, in which species they may be said to 
be fancifully exaggerated. 
Species 360. (Mus. Cuming.) 
Bulimus coarctatus. Bui. testd conico-oxald, soliduld, 
umbilicatd, anfrajctihus sex ad sfptem, Imrihus, aut sub

f asciis, fusco-nigricantibus cingulatd, apice nigro, labro 
eburneo. 
The contracted Bulimus. Shell conicaUy ovate,

Somewhat Partula-Yike in aspect, though not possessing 
the characters of that genus.

Bulimus auris-muris. Bid. testd conico-ovatd, basi 
depresso-pland, subobscure umbilicatd, aufractibus sex 
ad septem, planivsculis, leevibus, sub lente subtiliter 
malleatis; columelld late reflexd, aperturd lateraliter 
plano-contortd, subtrigemd, labro r^exo ; albd, Uneis 
caruleo-nigricantibus cingulatd, hbeculis pallidioribus 
obliquis. 
The mouse’s-ear Bulimus. SheU conically ovate, 
depressly flattened at the base, somewhat obscurely 
umbOicated, whorls six to seven in number, rather 
flattened, smooth, finely indented under the lens; 
columella broacUy reflected, aperture flatly contracted 
at the side, somewhat triangular. Up reflected ; white,

Helix auris-muris, Moricand, Mem. de Geneve, vol. viii. p. 
140. pi. 3. f. 1-3. 
Otostoma myotis. Beck. 
Hab. Bahia, Brazil. 
Although partaking of the form and minute detail of 
sculpture presented in the B. navieula and auris-leporis, 
this is a very distinct and characteristic species.
