GLANDINA. 71 
Very near G. cordovana, but more elongated. In Shuttleworth’s collection (now in 
the Museum at Berne) the label indicates positively Cordova as the locality ; the speci- 
men, however, is somewhat larger than the dimensions given in this author's description, 
which appears to have been made from an example in the Museum of Neufchatel. The 
former is figured here (fig. 4). A specimen collected by Herr Hége at Jalapa is very 
like it, but wants the brown varices. The example from Coatepec here noted as 
var. @ (fig. 5) agrees with that in the Museum of Berne in most respects, especially in 
the sculpture, varices, apex, and columella; but it is distinctly larger and its last whorl 
is comparatively shorter.

This species seems to be very variable in size and also somewhat in general form. 
It may be distinguished from the allied G. cordovana by the more narrow and subcylin- 
drical form of the last whorl, and by the outer edge of the aperture being produced in 
a slightly arcuated line throughout its length—in G. cordovana it exhibits a distinct 
obtusely angular projection somewhat above half the length. 
- Amongst the specimens I have seen the largest (long. 34 millim.) is from an old 
collection, without indication of locality; the smallest, apparently a full-grown one 
(18 millim.), is in Patel’s collection and marked “ Juquila,” but I do not know whether 
by direct knowledge or only because Pfeiffer gives this locality. Pfeiffer’s original 
examples are about halfway between them (25 millim.). One of 21 millim., very 
slender, of yellow colour, has been received from Herr Hoge from Jalapa. 
The shell, probably from Orizaba, figured by Fischer and Crosse’ differs by its 
much more ventricose form, deeply arcuated columella, and livid fleshy-brown colour ; 
but they state expressly that Pfeiffer has determined these specimens as belonging ‘to 
his G. conferta.
