long-conic, rather acute. Whorls 6, a little convex, the last shorter 

 than the spire, somewhat compressed at base. Columella twisted. 

 Aperture little oblique, subtetragonal oval, brownish inside ; peris- 

 tome thickened within, the margins subparallel, right margin sinu- 

 ous above, columellar margin overhanging, reflexed. Alt. 26, diam. 

 12 mill.; aperture 13 mill, long (Pfr.). Habitat unknown.

Shell ovate-conoid, very thin, a little glossy, pale green or buff- 

 amber colored, slightly marked with close and obsolete growth-lines 

 visible only under a lens. Spire conic, the apex rather minute and 

 a little obtuse. Whorls 5, convex, regularly and rather rapidly in- 

 creasing ; suture simple, impressed; last whorl ovate, ample. Aper- 

 ture suboblique, about one-third the length of the shell, oval, angu- 

 late above ; peristome simple, unexpanded, acute, narrowly expanded 

 and reflexed in a triangle over the small umbilical chink ; margins 

 distant. Length 14, diam. 9, alt. aperture 7^ mill. (Anc.).

Bulimulus luteolus ANC., Le Nat., April 1, 1901, p. 8'2. 



" Seems allied to B. limpidus Drouet, of Guyana, by its general 

 form, but it has a narrow perforation, while limpidus is quite imper- 

 forate. Moreover, the embryonal whorls, viewed under the micro- 

 scope, are provided with very fine, undulating lines and scarcely vis- 

 ible spiral lines, while those of limpidus are finely and regularly re- 

 ticulate." 



B. STILBE n. sp. PI. 25, fig. 18. 



Shell very narrowly rimate, ovate-conic, thin and very fragile, of 

 a pale greenish-yellow tint, fading above, and with a few narrow 

 darker streaks; glossy, nearly smooth, the growth lines rather faint, 

 base showing extremely superficial, faint and fine spiral striae. 

 Whorls 5|, the first sculptured with interrupted and waved wrinkles 

 crossed by comparatively coarse and prominent spiral stria? ; the rest 

 convex, last whorl moderately inflated. Aperture oblique, ovate, 

 the outer lip thin and fragile, columellar margin regularly concave.
