ADDENDA ET CORRIGENDA.
In the Systematic Index, Conchology, Part I. for "_Acephalis_" read
"_Acephales_."
Pl. 92. page 1. line 13, for "_caudi_," read "_caudis_."
23, for "_Dentatis_" read "_Dentati_."
-- 3. -- 11 from the bottom, for "_Lepidopterae_" read
"_Lepidoptera_."
-- 102. Add to the Synonyms, _A. virginea_. _Lamarck. Syst._ _tom._ 6.
_part_ 2. _p._ 131. _Sowerby's Genera._ _Achatina_, _f._ 2.
-- 124. last line, for "female" read "male;" and in the line above, for
"male" read "female."
-- 125. for "_P. Nireus_" read "_P. Nerius_."
-- 126. Add to the Syn. _Lam. Syst._ 7. _p._ 467. 55; and for _Ency.
Meth._ _pl._ 326. _f._ 204., read _pl._ 326. _fig._ 2 and 4.
-- 127. Add to the Syn. _Lam. Syst._ 7. _p._ 465. 50.
-- 134. _Strombus exustus_, described by Lamarck (_Syst._ 7. _p._ 211)
under the name of _S. Papilio_. The first of these names,
however, has the right of priority. (See _Mus. Cal._ 1797.)
The figures of Martini, tom. 3. tab. 8. f. 825, 826, clearly
represent this species; although Lamarck has quoted them for
_S. lentiginosus_.
_Strombus lentiginosus._ Add to the Synonyms, _Lam. Syst._ 7.
_p._ 203. _Knorr_, 3. _tab._ 13, _f._ 2. Lamarck has omitted
to quote any of the figures representing the young shells of
this and the following species.
-- 135. _St. tricornis._ Add to the Syn. _Lam. Syst._ 7. _p._ 201.
-- 139. _Sylvia plumbea._ This bird greatly resembles the female of
_S. pusilla_ of Wilson (yellow-backed Warbler, Latham), yet
differs in having the belly golden yellow instead of white: I
was told, moreover, that this was a male bird: the one inhabits
North, and the other South America. Latham's description of his
yellow-backed Warbler, I should think, is not quite accurate;
as he only alludes to one white bar on the wing covers, whereas
both Wilson and Vieillot say there are two.
-- 145. Eburna tessellata. Add to the Syn. _E. Arcolata_, _Lam. Syst._
7. _p._ 282. 4.
-- 146. Eburna Pacifica. Add to the Syn. _E. lutosa?_ _Lam. Syst._
7. 282. 5.
-- 150. The upper figure is of _Sphinx Leachii_, and the under of
_S. fasciata_.
-- 152. Add to the Syn. _Helix regina._ _Ferussac Moll._ _liv._ 19.
_pl._ 119.
-- 153. Ditto _S. bituberculatus_, _Lam. Syst._ 7. _p._ 202. 6.
-- 157. Amp. Effusa. Ditto, _Lam. Syst._ 6. 2. _p._ 178. 5.
-- 164. Add to the Syn. _Le Figuier Tcheric_, _Le Vaill. Ois. d'Af._ 3.
_pl._ 132.
-- 166. Ditto _Lam. Syst._ 6. 2. _p._ 178. 5.
-- 170. Ditto _Le Vaill. Ois. d'Af._ 3. _pl._ 112. _f._ 2.
-- 177. Ditto _Pyrula Spirillus._ _Lam. Syst._ 7. _p._ 142.

NOTES
[1] "Pendant que les naturalistes font des monographies, des ouvrages generaux ou la synonymie, les coupes systematiques sont, a force de temps et de soins, etablies avec rigueur, les auteurs des miscellanees, avec quelques phrases et des noms nouveaux, font des genres ou des especes, et publient 50 cahiers dans lesquels les fruits de dix ans de recherches ou de voyages sont enleves a leurs auteurs.

[5] The additional list of synonyms subjoined at the end of this volume almost entirely refer to one or two books which have been subsequently published: the date of 1822, affixed to the seventh volume of Lamarck's _H. N. des Animaux sans Vertebres_, is considerably before the time it was issued to the public.
[6] I have applied this term to the oblique descent made by the umbo, towards the basal extremity of the anterior side of bivalves.
