68 AUSTRALIAN LAND SHELLS. 



The band varies in intensity of colour, from deep black bordered with 

 red to reddish-brown or pinkish, and in old specimens is very faintly 

 indicated. This species is closely related to the many banded and 

 lined H. fucata of Wide Bay. 



168. Helix Novse-Hollandiae- Gray. 



Carocolla Novre-Hollandire. Gray, Pro. Zool. Soc., 1834, p. 67. 



Shell orbicular, conical, sub-depressed, sub-perforate, thin, smooth, 

 very finely elevately-punctate, pale fulvous ; spire conical, convex ; 

 whorls 6, distinct, with a brown sub-median band, last with a pale 

 angular keel, convex in front, deep brown about the axis ; aperture 

 sub-angular ; peristome sub-inflexed behind the keel, somewhat 

 thickened, reflected, black, outer lip thin, brown, throat whitish, 

 with a pellucid band. 



Diameter 14 lines, axis 9 lines. 



Habitat. N. S. W. 200 miles from Port Macquarie. Cunningham. 



This description is a translation of the original. After much reflection 

 I feel scarcely any doubt of the specific identity of this shell with 

 If. Dupuyana, a point which inspection of the original specimen will 

 probably settle at once in the affirmative, and if so, Dr. Gray's name 

 has the priority.

BULIMUS. Scopoli.
