Hah. Jamaica. 
Named to denote its general resemblance with the 
B. octonus, which is referred to Acliatina. 
1 am indebted for eight of the species of this plate to 
the kindness of Mr. C. B. Adams, Professor of Zoology, 
&c., in Amherst College, Massachusetts. They were col- 
lected during an excursion in Jamaica, in company with 
the Honourable Mr. Chitty, Chairman of Quarter Sessions 
in that Island, together with a number of interesting land 
shells of other genera, which Mr. Adams is preparing for 
publication in a periodical pamphlet form, under the title 
of ‘ Contributions to Conchology.’ 
Species 620. (Mus. Adams.) 
Bulimus teeebella. Bui. testd subulatd, anfractihus 
octo, convexiusetdis, concentrice impresso-striatis, colu- 
melld tenue reflexd, aperturd pared, lahro simplid ; 
sordide fuscescente. 
The little augue Bulimus. Shell subulate, whorls 
eight in number, rather convex, concentrically im- 
pressly striated, columella thinly reflected, aperture 
small, lip simple ; dull brownish. 
Adams, MS. 
Hah. Jamaica. 
This is the most elongated form of the Jamaica type, 
of light diaphanous growth, concentrically impressly stri- 
ated. It is very minute, and, with the rest of the species 
of this plate, considerably magnified. 
Species 621. (Mus. Cuming.) 
Bulimus Goodallii. Bui. testd conico-elongatd, eix 
umhilieatd, anfractihus septem, coneexiusculis, Iceeihus, 
columelld suheontortd, teniie reJlexd, aperturd pared, 
lahro simplici; pellucido-corned. 
Goodall’s Bulimus. Shell conically elongated, scarcely 
umbdicated, whorls seven in number, slightly convex, 
smooth, columella somewhat twisted, thinly refiected, 
aperture small, lip simple ; transparent horny. 
Helix Goodallii, IMiUer, Ann. Phil. 1822, p. 381. 
Btdimus Goodallii, Gray. 
Helix {Cochlicella) clavulus, Perussac. 
Bulimus claeulinus, Potiez and Michaud. 
Bulimus pumilus, Pfeiffer. 
Hah. West Indies. 
This little species, being transported from Jamaica, has 
become partially naturalized in this country, and is in- 
cluded by some authors in the British fauna. It is found 
abundantly in the pine-pits at Bristol, especially on the 
sides of the pots, where they are immersed in the decayed 
bark. 
Species 622. (Mus. Adams.) 
Bulimus mieabilis. Bui. testd pyramidali-conicd, an- 
fractihus octo, rotundatis, superne squamis grandihus 
erectis undigue pemdiariter coronatis, columelld con- 
tortd, aperturd pared, medio cotitractd; cameo-fus- 
cescente. 
The wondeeful Bulimus. Shell pyramidally conical, 
whorls eight in number, rounded, peculiarly coro- 
nated throughout with large erect scales, coliuneUa 
twisted, apertm-e small, contracted in the middle; 
light flesh-brown. 
Adams, MS. 
Hah. Jamaica. 
The whorls in this remarkable species are contracted in 
the middle, and the upper portion is prominently coronated 
throughout with broad vaulted scales. 
The three following Bidimi of Adams are numbered to 
belong to Acliatina, under which genus the descriptions 
are given at PI. XXII. 
Species 623. (Mus. Adams.) 
Bulimus minimus. Bui. testd subulatd, spiree sutuns 
suhimpressis, anfractihus septem, suhrotundatis, con- 
December, 1849.
