Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Descriptions of Some New Terrestrial and Fluviatile Shells of North America, 1829, 1830, 1831
The following will be found a complete list of such as were omitted in that work. I regret exceedingly my inability to accompany the figured species with Drawings. If any specimens of species here described are not contained in the Cabinet of the Academy of Natural Sciences, they will most probably be found in my own private collection, which has not been opened since it was put up five years since. If this should be the case, it will afford me much pleasure to place them in that collection for future reference.
