(a)  I found great numbers of a species of Limnoea adhering to aquatic plants, in a lake situated between Mandetiba and Lagoa Aramama (?)! The water was then fresh,- the inhabitants affirmed that periodically once a year it became salt and sometimes oftener. – The period most probably is whilst the SW winds prevail; Is not this fact curious; that fresh water shells, should survive an inundation of salt water? In the neighbouring lagoons, Balaria were adhering to the rocks.
