Tab. Fig. 
INDEX TO THE HISTORIA CONCHYLIORUM, 
Petiver has copied this figure at t. 153. f.4. of his Gazophylacium, and again at 
1 . 10. f. 11. of his Pterigraphia. 
21. 17. Is a young shell of Turbo cylindrus with the lip unformed; and Petivers Pterigra¬ 
phia, 1 .10 . f. 12. has been copied from this figure. 
' Ferussac says he never saw this shell, and considers it to be a nondescript, to which 
he has given the name of Helix Petiveriana: but Petiver has done nothing more 
than copy Lister’s figure in his Pterigraphia, t. 12. f. 9. 
22. 19- Is the Turbo No. 131. of Schroeters Einleitung, and I am unacquainted with the 
species. Petiver’s Gazophylacium, 1 . 104. f.4. is a copy. 
— 20. Bulla, rivalis. 
23. 21. Helix oblonga, with an egg and young shell of the same species. 
24. 22. V : data auris Virgmis. 
25. 23. Turbo Labeo. 
26. 24. Turbo Lincina. Petiver’s Gazophylacium, 1.118. fill, and Klein, t. 3. f. 71. have 
been copied from this figure. 
27. 25. Turbo elegans. 
28. 2 6. Turbo carinatus. 
29. 27. In the opinion of Ferussac is a nondescript species. 
30. 28. The upper figure is Turbo muricatus, and the other is probably a variety of Turbo 
arrnatus . Petiver has copied both these figures at 1 . 10. f. 9. and 10. of his Pteri¬ 
graphia. 
31. 29. Arranged by Ferussac as a nondescript, with the name of Helix Listeri; and in the 
Portland Catalogue, lot. 711, it is said to be a native of Jamaica. 
32. 30. Voluta auris Judce. 
33 . 31. Helix Iceva. 
— 32. Quoted with a mark of doubt by Ferussac for a reversed variety of Helix Lucana. 
34. 33. Is generally considered to be a variety of Helix aurea , (i. e. Bulimus citrinus of Bru- 
guiere,) but Mr. Swainson suspects that it is a distinct species, and has described it 
separately, with the name of Bulimus aureus. 
35. 34. Helix aurea. 
3 6. 35 . Has been quoted for the Helix inversa of Muller; but it is a very indifferent figure, 
and hardly worth notice. 
37. 36. Bulla bicarinata; and the original specimen from which this figure was made is still 
preserved in the Ashmolean Museum at Oxford. 
38. 37* Is probably a young shell of Helix columna, with the apex more obtuse, and the 
whirls less numerous. 
39. 37. b. Helix columna. 
40. 38. Turbo quadridens; and Gmelin has strangely cited this figure, not only for Turbo 
quadridens, but also as a variety both of Turbo perversus and of Turbo uva. 
41. 39. The larger figure is Turbo laminatus, and the other is Turbo nigricans: the latter 
has been copied from the Appendix to the Historia Animalium Anglise, 1.1. f. 7. 
42. 40.1 n e i' ix Jamaicensis . 
43. — ) 
44. 41. Helix globulus. 
— 42. Is the Helix No. 18. of Schroeters Einleitung, and I cannot find any other reference 
to this figure; it is however more likely to be a Turbo than a Helix. 
45. 43. Is the Helix melanotragus of Born, which is probably nothing more than a variety 
of Helix hcemastoma. 
46. 44. Same as t. 44. f. 41. 
47. 45. Is the Helix albolabris of Say, in Nicholson’s American Encyclopedia, and the species 
is unnoticed in the Descriptive Catalogue. In the Portland Catalogue, p. 91. lot 
2013, the figure is referred to for “ a scarce Helix from America,” and erroneously 
by Gmelin for a variety of Helix Pomatia. 
48. 46. Helix Pomatia. Among Lister’s papers at the Ashmolean Museum, there is a letter 
addressed to him from Mr. Charles Proby, dated Montpelier, Jan. 2, 1699; which, 
in allusion to Helix Pomatia having been found at Asted near Epsom, says, “ The 
“ old Lord Arundell brought them over out of this country alive, and dispersed 
“ them up and down his grounds.” This corroborates the evidence which Da Costa 
has adduced, to prove that it is not an aboriginal species of this kingdom.
