248 FAUXULUS. 



Peristome narrowly expanded and a little reflected, the ends 

 joined by a thin parietal callous with convex upper edge ; 

 outer margin strongly bent in above the middle, colurnellar 

 margin sloping, nearly straight. Angular lamella thin and 

 almost or quite as long as the parietal, curving into the outer 

 lip above. Parietal lamella strong and straight. Columellar 

 lamella horizontally entering, an oblique supracolumellar 

 lamella converging towards it. In the outer lip there is a 

 nodular suprapalatal which is typically 'weakly twinned but 

 sometimes simple ; an entering but short upper palatal, and 

 a long, very slightly bent lower palatal plica ; basal plica 

 smaller and straight. 



Length 4.1, diam. above aperture 2.3 mm. ; 7y 2 whorls 

 (fig. 4). 



Length 5, diani. 2.25 mm. (M. & P., spec. max.).

The figure is from a topotype sent by Mr. Burnup. 

 'This striking shell, larger than the preceding species and 

 its varieties, may be horn-colored, greyish-brown, or milk- 

 white. Normally this species has nine peristomatal processes, 

 viz. two parietal, two columellar, one basal, and four labral, 

 of which last named the lowest is large, the central small, and 

 above this, in the sinus of the labrum, are two, very small 

 and close together. In the type, which is not available to me 

 for examination, these two small plaits may be merged into 

 one broad plait, as in the case of a shell from Inhluzani Moun- 

 tain, in my collection ; for the authors do not refer to a pair, 

 nor does the original figure show it. One shell in my collec- 

 tion, also from Inhluzani, bears an additional plait at the 

 base of the columella ; but as it is only one example in many,
