Near New Orleans ; belonging, perhaps, to the Texas Subregion. Animal not observed. Doubtful and Spurious Species of Succinea. Succinea putris, Lin. (Deshayes, Encycl. Meth., 21; DeKay, 1839, 31; F^-eus- SAC, Tabl. Syst., 9), and Succinea amphibia, Dkap. (Foiibes, Brit. Ass., 1837, 144 ; Fi^.russac, Tabl. Syst. ; Binney, Terr. Moll., II. 159 ; Mus. Siieitard, Tr. Lit. Hist. Soc. Quebec, 1829, I. 194), have been quoted from America. Having never seen a well-authenticated specimen of either, I omit them. Succinea vervieta. Say, New Harm., Diss., II. 230 (1829); Desc. 23 (1840); ed. Binney, 38 (5. venusta, W. G. B., err. typ.). Gould quotes this in the synonymy oi S. avara. See Terr. Moll., II. 64, 73, and above, p. 421. Succinea aperta, Lea, Trans. Amer. Philo. Soc, VI. 101, PI. XXIII. Fig. 101 ; Obs., II. 107 (1839), is said by Gould (Terr. Moll., II. 67) to be identical with S. rotundata, of Sandwich Islands. Succinea pcUucida, Lea (Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Phila., 1864, 109 ; Journ. of same; Obs., XL 134, PI. XXIV. Fig. 106), appears to me to be Limncea columella. A figure of an authentic specimen, received from Mr. Lea, is here given. Succinea oblonga and putris, credited to North America by Prest- wiCH, Quart. Journ. Geol. Soc, XXVII. 493.
