LAND ANIMALS OF THE COAL PEIIIOU. 385 Zonites (Cunuliis) priscus, Carpenter. In the summer of 1866 I made some excavations in the bed above mentioned, and disinterred great numbers of the shells of the Pupa. My object was to find other remains if possible; and I was rewarded with the discovery of another little land shell, which my friend Dr r. v. Carpenter has described under the above name (Fig. 150).* Fig. 150.— Conulus prinrus, Carpenter. a It. («) Specimen; enlarged 12 diameters. (b) Sculpture; magnified. is quite different from the Pupa, being snail-like in form, with a wide aperture and a very thin shell, sculptured on the surface in a different way. The sub-genus Co7iulus is a subdivision of the old genus lldix, and is a group of modern snails, sometimes included in the genus Zonites. I may add that in the collections made in 1866 there are fragments which may indicate the existence of at least one other land snail, but not sufficient for description. Xylohius Sigillarice, Dawson.
