PREFACE.
Tue chief objects in forming the present Synoptical Cata-_
logue have been, to exhibit at one view a complete list of all
the specimens of Mo.usca at present in the British Museum
collection, and to furnish such an account of the species
known to exist in other collections, but which are at present )
desiderata in the British Museum, as the materials at hand —
would permit me to compile, in order to enable travellers, —
collectors, and others, to assist in completing the national
collection.
For this purpose, short descriptions have been given of all —
the genera and species of recent Mollusca at present known
to exist in the different museums and private collections,
and of the better-known fossil species of the various families.
At the end of each description is added an enumeration
stating the state, age, country, or strata, and other pecu-
liarities, of each specimen of the kind in the Museum
collection ; and, when the species is not at present in that
collection, the museum in which it has been observed is
often added after the general habitat or locality of the
species. The different individuals of each species contained
in the British Museum collection are indicated by the letters
a, b, c, &e.
Those specimens which have been presented to the Museum
have the name of the donor marked immediately after the
—
1V PREFACE.
habitat. When there is no such indication, the specimens
_have been either purchased, or procured in exchange ; and
_in this case, whenever the place or person from whom they
_have been received gives authenticity to the specimens, or
adds any thing to their history, they are noted as being from
such and such a collection or locality. Great attention has
been paid to dates, and the generic and specific names which
appear to possess priority in this respect have been adopted.
Reference has also been made to the works in which the
genera and species appear to have been first described or
noticed.
Catalogues like the present can be little more than com-
pilations, and I have freely availed myself of the labours of
_ my predecessors in the same field; especially of those who
_ have published monographs of the different groups: but the
’ characters of the orders, families, minor groups, and species,
have been compared and revised with the specimens. In
this Part great use has been made of the researches of
M. D’Orbigny, who, with the late Baron Férussac, has been
for many years engaged in the study of these animals;
and their works may be considered as the basis of this Part
of the Catalogue.

INTRODUCTION.
Sup-Kinepom III. MOLLUSCA.
Body soft, fleshy, destitute both of any bony skeleton supporting
jointed limbs, and of a hard ringed skin, or external skeleton.
Generally elongate, walking on a single central foot or disk, and —
furnished with one or more pairs of organs on the head and
sides. The nervous system consists of a number of medullary
masses distributed to different parts of the body; one of the —
masses placed over the gullet, and enveloping it like a collar.
\
The body is furnished with a muscular coat, called a mantle, ©
_ endued with a glairy humour, and generally furnished with a
ealeareous envelope called a shell, secreted by the mantle, —
and protecting the body, or the more vital organs of the animal.
There is generally a mantle on each side of the body, each fur-
nished with a shell; but the shells on the two sides are often
very differently sized, that on one of the sides is in some only
rudimentary, and in others they both are wanting in the adult.
Some animals which have two unequal valves in the feetal, or
very young, state, lose them when they grow up.

Cuass 1V. CEPHALOPODA.
Head large, separate from the body. Eyes large, complex, lateral.
Ears developed. Mouth armed with two horny or shelly jaws,
edged with fleshy lips, and surrounded by eight or ten fleshy
arms, or numerous tentacles; and furnished with an entire or
slit tube, or siphuncle, used in locomotion.

Fam. TL OCYTHOIDA (ARGONAUTIDZ®).
Body ovoid, enlarged in front, smooth, covered with a thin skin
marked with chromatic glands. Ventral aperture extending
to under the eyes. Cer vical band moderate. Ventral part of the
mantle supported by an elevated button on the inner side near
the margin, fitting into a notch at the base of the siphuncle.
Head oblique, short above and long below. Eyes lateral, very
large, ovate, prominent, covered on the upper edge with a very
thin eyelid. Beak broad, not compressed. Ear “small, behind
the eye, under the cervical band and lateral aquiferous opening.
Aauiferous openings one pair at the upper hinder angle of the
eye.
ins tapering, very unequal ; the dorsal pair bent back on them-
selves and furnished with a membrane, the lower pair with a
broad membranous exterior keel, the lateral pairs depressed.
Cups in two series, prominent, as if slightly pediceled.
Siphuncle very large, conical, attached by two exterior lateral and
two other medial very thin bands.
? Shell (ARGoNAUTA) exterior, one-celled, thin, brittle, transparent,
horny, calcareous, slightly flexible when wet; nucleus hemi-
spherical, very large.
The female Ocythoes are often found in the shell of the Argo-
naut, and have hence been supposed to form these shells, and as
yet no other animal has been found inhabiting them; but there
are several reasons for believing that the Ocy ythoe i is only a parasite
adapted by its form to live in such shells, as the web of the arms is
used by the animal to embrace the shell and keep it in its right
OCYTHOIDZ. 29
position on the body. Unlike all other Mollusca, which form
the shell they inhabit: First, the Ocythoe is not attached to the shell
by any muscle, nor has it any muscle, like the bone-bearing cuttle-
fish, formed for the purpose of attaching the body to an internal
shell. Secondly, the animal, when alive, does not fit the shell; so
that the shell cannot have been moulded on its body, as in other
Mollusca. Thirdly, the skin of the Ocythoe is of the same texture
and appearance as in the other naked Cephalopoda; and the presence
of sand between the shell and the body appears to cause no un-
easiness to the animal, as it does in all other shell-bearing Mol-
luseca, where the animal immediately rids itself of the irritation
so caused by covering the sand, &c., with a calcareous coat.
The animals found in these shells are always female, and the
apex of the shell is filled with very small eggs; while from the
large size of the young shell, which is seen on the apex of the true
Argonaut, we should expect the animal which formed that shell
to have a large egg ; for, though the eggs of Mollusca are enlarged
during the hatching, they are not, in any case I have observed, so
much enlarged as to have such a shell.
It is supposed by those who believe that the shell belongs to
the Ocythoe, that it is formed and mended when broken by
the expanded ends of the upper arms, which embrace the outer
surface of the shell, and keep it on the body of the animal.
Cranch and Adams, who have seen these animals alive, state
that they leave the shell when they are frightened, and they cannot
recover their position in the shell after they have thus left it.
Mr. Adams regards the Argonaut shell as a nest formed by
the female to contain her eggs ; if this is correct, it can scarcely be
compared to other shells. He regards them as similar to the carti-
laginous cases which Murices and other zoophagous Mollusca form
to contain their eggs! ; but they have no apparent analogy to those
bodies, which are secreted by the oviduct as the eggs are deposited.
These various views show that the origin of the shell is not yet
distinctly settled.

whorls below on the hinder part of the ventral surface, covered
on the sides by the flesh of the body, and above and below by a
thin skin.
Péron and Lamarck represent the shell as partly exposed at
the end of the body, and this agrees with the imperfect specimen
brought home by Captain Belcher, and described by Mr. Owen.
Mr. Cranch’s fragment, that described by M. De Blainville, and
the nearly perfect specimens brought home by Mr. Earl, first
figured by Mrs. Gray in the Annals, have the shell entirely enclosed,
and the hinder part of the body furnished with a thick ring-like
fleshy substance, pierced in the centre, and having a slight semicir-

cular kind of fin on each side. It has been suggested that this
may depend on the sex of the specimens. De Blainville’s specimen
was a female, but the sex of the others is unknown.

Dr. Mantell, in his restoration of this genus (Phil. Trans, 1848, t.
14. f. 3, 4.), seems to have overlooked the fact that the upper part
of the shell appears, as figured by Messrs. Owen and Cunnington,
to be subcylindrical, like the upper part of the cone of the Belem-

Dr. Mantell (Phil. Trans. 1848, t. 15. f. 2. 3.) has figured a
specimen which appears to have an elongated process on each side,
like the processes on the side of the mouth of certain Ammonites ;
but, on examining the specimen, I am very doubtful if this ap-
pearance does not arise from an accidental fracture of the upper
part of the conical sheath.
M. D’Orbigny describes the shell of this genus as horny, en-
larged in front into a spathuliform dorsal plate, contracted behind,
with a conical cavity furnished with concave septa, having a
siphon on the ventral edge traversing all the cells, and coated
externally with a shelly beak. The theoretical form of the bone
is represented by M. D’Orbigny in Ann. Sci. Nat. 1842, t. ,
Paléont. Franc. Ter. Juras. t. 2. f.1, 2. t.3. f.1, 2,3. t.4.f 1,
Moll. Viv. et Fos. i. t. 35, 36. The authority for this dorsal ex-
pansion appears to rest on certain lines seen on the outside of the
cone of Belemnites giganteus var. aalensis, which, he thinks,
resemble the grooves found on the dorsal surface of the bone of
the cuttle-fish, Sepia or Loligo, and hence he believes they have
a similar enlarged dorsal plate. This may be the case with some
species, though, I believe, no specimens have been found to establish
this theory, and the external surface of the conical part of other
Belemnites shows no indication of any such grooves ; but this may
arise from two or more distinct forms being confounded in the
present genus Belemnites.

PREFACE.
Tuts Catalogue contains a List of all the species of Mollusca
belonging to the family Olivide, with the characters of the
genera and sections into which the species are divided,
indicating at the same time, by a B.M. in the margin, those
contained in the British Museum.
To show the geographical distribution of the species,
great attention has been paid to the evidence of the country
inhabited by them."

OF
MODE lbp US. Ger.
Family OLIVID&.
Siphon of mantle recurved. Head small. Foot with a cross
groove on each side, in front very large, often enclosing a part
of the shell and producing a polished coat on it. Mantle en-
closed. Shell ovate cylindrical. Mouth linear, ovate; canal re-
duced to a notch. Operculum horny, small, often wanting.
Tribe I. OLIVINA.
Shell subcylindrical, smooth, polished ; suture with a deep
channel; pillar plaited in front. Mantle with an elongated
posterior process enclosed in the groove of the spire. Lateral
teeth of the tongue broad ovate. Operculum with subapical
nucleus or wanting.
Linneeus divided the shells usually called Olives by the
dealers into three species, viz. Voluta porphyria, V. oliva, and
V. isprdula.
Gmelin added a few; and Lamarck, who published a mono-
graph of the genus in the ‘Annales du Muséum,’ extended the
number to sixty-two, which Dillwyn reduced to eighteen.
Duclos, who published the plates of a monograph of this
genus in 1835, figures eighty-four recent species ; and he con-
siders twenty-two of the species which Lamarck described as
only varieties of other species.
6 OLIVIDZX.
In 1850 Mr. L. Reeve, in his ‘Conchologia Iconica,’ pub-
lished the figures of 100 species, but without any attention to
their affinity to each other, and with scarcely sufficient care to
the more important part of the shell on which the separation
of the species depends. They are therefore inferior to those of
M. Duclos.
I believe that it is the uncertainty with regard to the number
of the species that has rendered these shells, which are cer-
tainly among the most beautiful in form, colour, and marking
that we possess, so little attended to by the general collector.
This is the more remarkable, as the shells are very extensively
distributed over the globe and are easily collected, and therefore
procurable by the conchologist at a moderate rate. Though it
is very difficult to define the limits of many of the species on
account of the great variation in the colour, and the extraordi-
nary manner in which the marking gradually changes in its
character, yet other species are easily distinguished.
All the species are easily separated into very distinct groups,
defined by variations in the form and structure of the shell,
which are evidently produced by important modifications in
the structure of the animal. To point out these groups is the
object of this List, for I believe that by dividing the species,
or varieties which have been considered as species, into such
groups, I shall do much to disentangle the subject, and at least
confine the confusion to definite limits; for if the groups are
properly defined, it is only the specimens belonging to one of
these groups that can be varieties of each other.
M. Duclos, in his monograph, divides the species into four
groups :—1. Ancilloides (twenty-nine species); 2. Cylindrordes
(fifty species); 8. Glandiformes (seventeen species); 4. Volutelles
(seventeen species).
M. D’Orbigny, in his ‘ Voyage to South America,’ formed
M. Duclos’s four sections into three genera, giving to the first
section the name of Olivina, to the second and third sections
that of Oliva, and to the fourth Olvancillaria, apparently
founded on the form of the animal; but it is only necessary to
compare his figures of the animals of the two species of the
latter genus to show how little he attended to his own characters.
In the ‘Zoology to Capt. Beechey’s Voyage’ I divided the
genus into two, according to the structure of the animal, viz.
Oliva and Agaronia, and observed that some Olive were furnished
with an operculum not present in other species. More lately,
in the text to Mrs. Gray’s ‘ Figures of Molluscous Animals,’ and
in the ‘Guide to the Collection of Mollusca in the Museum,’ I
have extended the number of genera to four; separating the
operculated Olive under the name of Olvella, and giving to an
OLIVID2, 7
animal figured by D’Orbigny as Oliva auricularia the name of
Scaphura.
These shells sometimes have an elevated shelly cross band.
Lamarck had a specimen of Oliva porphyria (Hist. vii. 418)
so marked. It is not uncommon in O, guttata, where it has
been regarded as a specific character; but it is often found
in other species.
A further study of the figures of the animals given by authors
has induced me to revise this arrangement and propose the
following
SYNOPSIS OF THE GENERA.
I, Head exposed; tentacles elongate, subulate ; eyes distinct, sub-
basal. Foot elongate, dilated, front lobes semucircular.
Operculum none, Shell with the front belt narrow.
* Spire simple, with sutural groove open to the tap.
Pillar lip simple, not covering the front belt; inner lip cross
grooved. 1. STREPHONA.
Pillar lip simple, not covering the front belt; inner lip thick-
ened the whole length, with two or three slight grooves in
front. 2. IsprpULA.
Pillar lip simple, not covering the front belt; inner lip with a
series of transverse parallel grooves in front extending over
the pillar. 3. RAMOLA,.
Pillar lip expanded so far back as to cover the front belt, and
with an oblique raised ridge in front ; inner lip grooved.
4, CARMIONE.
** Spire callous, obliterating the sutural grooves, except on the last
or lowest whorl.
Shell ovate or obconic; aperture wide; pillar lip expanded ;
pillar twisted and grooved in front ; front belt broad.
5, CLANEOPHILA.
Shell subcylindrical; spire small; aperture linear; pillar lip
simple, defined ; inner lip grooved; front belt narrow.
6. GALEOLA.
Il. Head scarcely exposed ; tentacles short; eyes none. Foot elon-
gate, dilated in front, one-coloured. Shell with the sutural
groove open.
Shell subcylindrical or subovate; aperture oblong, thickened ;
front belt broad, double. 7. ANAZOLA.
8 OLIVID.
Shell subovate ; aperture ovate ; pillar slightly thickened ; front
belt single, moderate. 8. AGARONIA,
Ill. Head hidden ; tentacles none; eyes none. Foot short, very
broad, rounded on the sides, one-coloured. Operculum distinct.
Spire conical ; sutural groove open to the apex; aperture of
shell moderate ; operculum distinct; foot very short, front
lobes linear. 9, OLIVINA.
Spire conical; sutural groove open to the apex; aperture of
shell wide ; pillar lip thick, smooth, with two grooves in
front ; operculum none ?; foot large, front lobes very large,
rounded. 10. ScAPHULA.
Spire callous; sutural groove only open on the last whorls;
aperture moderate ; operculum distinct. 11. Micana.
I. Head exposed ; tentacles elongate, subulate; eyes distinct, sub-
basal. Foot elongate, dilated, front lobes semicircular.
Operculum none. Shell with the front belt narrow.
* Spire simple, with sutural groove open to the tip.
Genus 1. STREPHONA.
Shell subcylindrical ; spire conical or flattish, small ; aperture
linear ; pillar lip simple, only expanded in front, and not cover-
ing the callus; front belt narrow ; inner lip cross grooved. Foot
elongate, longer than the shell, broad, rounded behind, dilated
on the sides, which are bent up and cover the shell; the front
lobes nearly semicircular, rather produced, and acute at the
hinder outer angles. Head exposed; tentacles elongate; eyes
one-third from the base. Operculum none.
Adanson, in his ‘Hist. Nat. du Sénégal,’ regards all the
specimens of this genus as belonging to one species, observing :
—“Ta couleur de cette coquille est peu constante. J’en ai de
blanches, de jaunes, de jaunes livids, de jaunes verd, & méme
de verddtres sans aucun mélange. J’en ai aussi qui, sur ces
différens fonds, sont tachées, tigrées, marbrées ou couvertes de
zigzags, qui s’étendent tant6t sur leur longueur, tantot sur leur
largeur. Ces taches, ces points, ces bandes, et ces lignes sont
cendrés, noir ou bleuadtre dans les unes; brun, rougeatres ou
pourpres dans les autres: enfin leur mélange est si varié, que ce
seroit perdre son tems que de faire l’énumération de toutes
celles qui ont été décrites ou figurées par leurs auteurs. Je me
suis contenté de citer une vingtaine des principales variétés aux-
quelles on peut rapporter toutes les autres, dont plus de deux cent
OLIVID 2. 9
sont parvenues a ma connoissance. Leur intériewr est aussi
blanc, jaune, violet, ou pourpre foncé.” (p. 63.)
It would appear either that the animals vary as much in
colour as the shells, or, if permanent, they present good cha-
racters for the separation of the species, according to the speci-
mens of the animal figured by Messrs. Quoy and Gaimard in
the ‘ Voyage of the Astrolabe,’ t. 46, which are copied and im-
proved (?) by M. Duclos. The animal of the black variety of
O. maura is black, minutely brown-dotted, and with a regular
ale edge to the foot. S. erythrostoma and S. textilina are pale
rown, with large brown spots. S. elegans and S. sanguinolenta
are yellow, minutely black-dotted. It is interesting to observe
that the shells which are allied in colour and form have animals
also similarly allied.

Though M. D’Orbigny in his text correctly described Okva
auricularia of Lamarck, yet in his figure of the animal he repre-
sents the shell of Oliva biplicata, which does not even answer
to the character of the genus to which he refers it ; M. Deshayes
has referred both animal and shell to that species (see Lamk.
Hist. ed. 2. x. 634).
M. Duclos to obviate the inconsistency—on what authority 1
do not know—in his enlarged copy of M. D’Orbigny’s figure of
the animal, places on it a figure of the shell of the true Oliva
auricularia of Lamarck !
It must be left to succeeding naturalists to discover if the
animal figured by M. D’Orbigny is that of O. biphcata or O.
auricularia. My genus Scaphula was established on D’Orbigny’s
account of the animal.

The Olives are known from the Ancillarie by the sutural
groove on the spire; but in some species which have a very
distinct groove, it becomes obliterated and entirely hidden by
a callous deposit on the spire, especially on the upper whorls.
Duclos regarded this deposition of shelly matter on the spire
as a good character for the separation of the species, and I was
induced to follow his opinion, and have, in the ‘ Proceedings of
the Zoological Society,’ given to his section a distinct generic
name. I believe that it is a very permanent character im some
species, but at the same time it is certainly not permanent in
others : thus, in the British Museum there are four specimens
of Oliva mustelina ? received at the same time from China, two of
which have the groove quite open to the tip, one with it partly
closed, and the other with the grooves on the upper whorls
quite obliterated and covered with a thick callosity; this latter
specimen is considered by M. Duclos as another species and
referred to a different section. In the same manner I am induced
to believe, from a specimen in my cabinet, that his Oliva trisans
is only a variety of Oliva ispidula with the spire covered with
a callous deposit ; and I have observed that several of the speci-
OLIVID®. 33
mens named O. irisans in the late Mr. Gaskoin’s collection
because they have a callous spire, are only varieties of Oliva
tremulina ; indeed some of the specimens which have not a cal-
lous spire are placed with them, under the name of ¢isans.
It is therefore evident that the character which has been
regarded as of sectional or even generic importance, is not of
permanent specific value in certain species, while it appears
to be permanent and even one of the generic marks of other
groups.
Tribe II. ANCILLARINA.
Shell subcylindrical, polished; suture of spire callous. Mantle
without any posterior beard. Lateral teeth of the tongue simple,
curved. Shell more or less covered with an enamel coat ; outer
lip often with a tooth in front, leaving an impressed groove on
the outer surface of the front of the last whorl.
In the late Mr. Gaskoin’s collection there were two specimens
of a large ovate fusiform shell, from Albany in South Africa,
which are arranged with Ancil/ia; but the spire is not callous,
with a simple suture. It is probably arranged with this genus
because it possesses an anterior sunken groove caused by a labial
tooth; but this tooth and groove are found in several other
genera, as Chorus, Concholepas, Acanthiza, Gastridia, Latirus,
Murex, &e.
* Shell partly covered with enamel.
Genus 12. ANCILLA.
Spire covered with an enamel coat, forming a narrow belt on
the penultimate whorl, not reaching to the hinder part of the

outer lip with a tooth in front. Operculum large, distinct, oblong,
acute ; nucleus subapical, near the front of the inner side.
I have only observed the operculum in 4A. obtusa and A.
australis.

Tribe III. HARPALINA.
Shell ventricose variced ; pillar smooth. Operculum none.
Genus 18. HARPA.
Shell ovate oblong, thin, striated, with numerous polished,
acute, rib-like varices ; spire short, acute, last whorl very large ;
mouth ovate, elongate, broadly notched in front; outer lip with
a thickened external varix ; pillar lip simple, smooth, rounded,
pointed in front. Operculum none. Head large; proboscis
elongate, conical. Teeth ? Tentacles conical, close to-
gether over the mouth, with the eyes near their base. Foot very
large, expanded, nicked on each side in front, elongate behind,
often becoming truncate. The hinder part of the foot separates
spontaneously when the animal is irritated, or killed in fresh
water.
The varices have a strong spine at the hinder end near the
suture, which is rarely rudimentary : some specimens have one
or two other smaller spines in front of this spine; but one, and
sometimes both are more or less completely obliterated: the
three spines generally most distinct and equal-sized on Harpa
erenata.
The number, form, thickness and thinness, and state of arma-
ture of the varices vary greatly in the individuals of the same
species; but the character afforded by the structure of the
outer lip, which has hitherto been but little attended to, seems
to afford a good character for the separation of the kinds.
Kiener (the last writer on the subject) regards H. conoi-
dalis as a mere variety of H. ventricosa, he unites a form of H.
conordalis with H. nobilis as a variety of that species, he con-
siders H. crenata as the adult of HZ. rosea.
* Outer lip rounded, smooth.
+ Varices with broad brown cross bands.
