PARTULA, SOLOMON ISLANDS. 293 



Solomon Islands: "Savu, Galeria Is. (Capt. Brazier)'' [? 

 Savo, near Guadalcanal 1 I.]. 



Partula regularis HARTM., Proc. A. N. S. Phila. 1886, p. 

 31, pi. 2, f. 4. 



This species resembles P. flexuosa in shape and convexity 

 of the whorls, but differs in being more strongly sculptured 

 spirally. In sculpture it recalls P. incurva, but that is more 

 lengthened, the last whorl more compressed and more 



saccate.

"Shell dextral, oblong, ovate, very thin and pellucid; 

 whorls 5, well rounded, body-whorl somewhat inflated, spire 

 more than half the length. Suture well impressed, spiral 

 stride numerous and fine, umbilicus compressed, aperture 

 oblique, round oval, lip white, concave and moderately re- 

 flected. Color a very pale green. Length 18 mm., diam. 9 

 mm.; length of aperture 9 mm., diameter 4 mm." (Hartm.)

"Compared with P. similaris it is a larger, thinner and 

 more inflated shell. Capt, Brazier sent me two examples ; 

 the smaller measured: length 14, diani. 8 mm." (Hartman). 

 The types were probably returned to Brazier. I copy the 

 original figure and description.

The shell is ovate-conic; moderately thin; deeply and 

 rather narrowly rim-ate ; isabelline with many unequal chest- 

 nut lines and streaks in the direction of growth-strife, and 

 a narrow, weakly-marked band of the same at the periphery. 

 Surface rather dull, with sculpture of weak growth-wrinkles 

 and close, slightly rippled, deeply engraved spiral lines; at 

 the peripheral band there is a group of finer spiral lines. 

 Whorls 4%, convex, parted by a simple suture, which on 

 the last half of the last whorl has a rather wide margin be- 

 low, defined by an impressed line. The last whorl is rather
