A distinct locomotive disk. Fig. 221. I have received specimens from Pennsylvania to Arkan- sas, from Illinois to Saint Augustine, Fla, and Mobile. The species may therefore be said to inhabit the Interior z. lawujatus, var. and Southcm Eegions. It attains its greatest develop- ment in the Cumberland Subregion. A more globose variety is figured. A variety from Columbus, Ga., and Franklin County, Tennessee, Fig. 221J. is more depressed. I formerly erroneously referred this form to Z. capnodes. I have given the synonymy of this species in full to show under how many names it has appeared. It z. icevigatus, var. sccms to havc bccu scut to Fcrussac by Eafinesque un- der the name it bears, though no description of it by the latter author is extant. FcSrussac mentions it by name only in his "Tableaux" (1821), with no reference, however, to the figure which afterwards appeared (1832) in the " ; In 1840, Dr. Binney evidently refers to it in the Boston Journal as a striated variety of fuUginosuSj and quotes F6- russac's figure. He also suggests its identity with lucubratus. In 1848 the first description of the shell was published by Pfeiffer, whom I have given as the authority for the specific name. In continuing ¥6- russac's great work, Deshayes also describes the shell, as does also Pfeifler in the second edition of Chemnitz. It was therefore well es- tablished and universally known by the name of Icevigatus when the
