The radula of this form is somewhat Hke that ofthe genus Vivipaja, but it is much more closely similarto that of a number of Littorinas; in like manner, thenerves are arranged upon a plan which at once recalls themore primitive types of the Prosobranchiata and even theRhipidoglossa themselves. To make this quite clear, Iwould, in the first place, point out that if we consider thedisposition of the anterior ganglionic masses in the differentgroups of the Prosobranchiata, we find that in all the formsof the Rhipidoglossa, both diatocardiat
