MOLLUSKS REPORTED FROM SOUTH AFRICA NOT CONTAINED IN THE
COLLECTION OF THE UNITED STATES NATIONAL MUSEUM FROM
THAT AREA.
In the following list have been cited all those species which have
been reported from South Africa, which are not in the United States
National Museum from that area. I have given the type-locality
from which each species was first reported. If no locality follows
the name, it signifies that none was given in the original description.
Many of the species listed from South Africa belong to entirely dif-
ferent faunal areas, and the authors who reported them should very
carefully compare their material with the species from the type-
locality. They will probably find, as I have found in many instances,
that their shells, while bearing a superficial resemblance to the South
African mollusks, are not specifically the same.
