186 TORNATELLINA. 



45. T. MOLUCCANA 0. Boettger. PL 38, figs. 12, 13. 



Differs from T. oblonga-ta [sic] Pse. by the smaller, more 

 eyliudric-oblong shell, the parietal lamellae more approaching 

 the eolumella. Shell small, imperforate, snbregularly elon- 

 gate-oblong, thin, glossy, corneous-brown. Spire turrite-con- 

 vex, the apex rather obtuse. Whorls 5y 2 , a little convex, 

 separated by a lightly impressed suture, obsoletely striatulate 

 in groups, the last whorl flattened in the middle, two-fifths 

 the length of the shell. Aperture a little oblique, auriform, 

 unilamellate, the parietal lamella extremely strong, com- 

 pressed, subtransverse, approximating the eolumella. Peri- 

 stome simple, acute, the right margin rather straightly de- 

 scending, columellar margin sigmoid with a twisted callus, 

 wider and flattened at base, but not toothed. Length 2%, 

 diam. 1, alt. apert. 1, width % mm. (Bttg.).

Among the few species accessible to me only the Polynesian 

 T. oblonga-ta Pse. is closely comparable, but that is certainly 

 diverse specifically by the conic-oblong, not wholly oblong 

 contour, with more pointed apex (Bttg.). The original fig- 

 ures are copied. 



46. T. CAMARINICA Moellendorff. Not figured. 



Shell imperforate, slenderly oblong-oval, thin, slightly stri- 

 atulate, yellowish-corneous. Whorls 4i/ 2 , a little convex. 

 Aperture nearly vertical, acuminate-oval; peristome unex- 

 panded, acute. Parietal lamella emerging, rather strong, en- 

 tering deeply. Columella strongly twisted spirally, fold well 

 developed, spirally receding. Length 3, diara. 1.5 mm.
