Nomenclature and Checklist of North American Land Shells

Pilsbry HA. 1889. Nomenclature and Checklist of North American Land Shells. Proceedings of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia. 41:191-210

The following list includes all of the species of land Pulmonata known to me to inhabit America north of the Mexican Boundary. I have taken this occasion to examine nearly every species (except the Succinea) and also to somewhat critically review the generic and subgeneric nomenclature with a view to attaining greater stability. The departures miade from the ordinary usage of American malacologists have been only such as seemed to me to be absolutely necessary.
