Abstract

A species of branchiate snail new to the molluscan fauna of the United States, Hydrobia palomasensis (Pils.) (fide Pilsbry), was collected near Fort Davis, Texas, in April, 1936, by Mr. Ottys Sanders of Dallas. The specimens were found in a small canyon opening into Limpia Canyon, about five miles north of Fort Davis. The present writer, on a trip to this same locality last September, found this species in abundance.
