N. PLICATA. _N._ sulcata, labiis profunde dentatis, interiore

N. CHAMÆLEON. _N._ sulcata, labiis dentatis, interiore rugoso
tuberculato.
"Habitat in Banda", and "compositis" after "subtilissimis", are the
unprinted additions.
N. UNDATA. _N._ sulcata, labiis dentatis, interiore rugoso,
tuberculato.
The erroneous figure of Gualtieri was not cited when the description
was drawn up, but added to the details, along with "confluentibus.
Spira acuta prominens", when the present name was substituted for the
earlier _nebulata_.
N. EXUVIA. _N._ sulcata, labiis dentatis, interiore denticulato.
HALIOTIS.
Testa univalvis, patens, convexa. Spira obsoleta, lateralis. Foramina
lateralia pervia.
H. MIDÆ. _H._ subrotunda, utrinque nitida.
_Humana_ was the intended specific appellation.
H. TUBERCULATA. _H._ subovata, rugis transversis tuberculatis.
The reference to Lister was an emendation.

No name was attached to either this or any member of the genus, except
the first.
H. VARIA. _H._ ovata, striis longitudinalibus, majoribus tuberculatis.
H. MARMORATA. _H._ ovata, striis longitudinalibus, transversis
obsoletis.
H. ASININA. _H._ oblonga, extra foramina angulata, striis elevatis.

All the headings in this genus are similar to those in the 'Systema'.

The limits of this genus were precisely those of the printed edition.
P. EQUESTRIS. _P._ ungue fornicali nutante.
P. NERITOIDEA. _P._ integra ovata, apice subspirali, labio laterali.
"Supra" preceded "convexa", and the "fere" was before "apice".

P. PORCELLANA. _P._ basi interne labiata, pone mucronato-subspiralis.

P. SACCHARINA. _P._ margine sinuato, carinata, costis 7.
"Pet, Amb. t. 3. f. 3", and "Klein 117. t. 8. f. 4", were additional

P. BARBARA. _P._ dentata, costis 19 elevatis.
P. GRANULARIS. _P._ margine dentato, striis elevatis mucronibus
imbricatis.
The erroneous reference to Gualtieri was not in the original.
