William G. Binney

William Greene Binney was an American malacologist, working mostly during the second half of the nineteenth century. He was responsible for volumes 4 and 5 of The Terrestrial Air-Breathing Mollusks of the United States , a task he took over from his father, Amos Binney, and collaborator, Augustus Addison Gould. The ninety engraved plates which were part of volume 5, illustrating most of the then known land mollusk fauna, are particularly noteworthy.

Succinea forsheyi, common name the spotted ambersnail, is a species of small, air-breathing, land snail, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusc in the family Succineidae, the amber snails.
