REEVE. Conch. Ie. Vol. XV, Eulima, fig. 15. 



TRVON. Man. of Conch. Vol. VIII, p. 268, PI. 68, fig. 3. 



CLESSIN. Martini-Chemn. Conch. Cab. Ed. II, Vol. I, Eulimidae, p. 10, PI. 2, fig. 9. 



Stat. 240. Banda. 9 — 45 M. Black sand, coral. 1 Spec. 



The specimen sufficiently agrees with fig. 30 of the Monograph of Adams in Sowerby's 

 Thes. Conch. (1. c), less so with the other quoted figures. Mr. Melvill wrote about the Siboga- 

 specimen: "Does not exactly agree, but comes near it". The specimen is perhaps more hyaline, 

 the margin of the outer lip, can scarcely be called straight. As even the figures in the Thesaurus 

 Conch. are considerably different, so much that they can scarcely be considered to belong to 

 one and the same specimen and one might consequently conclude, that the species be slightly 

 variable, I have left this single specimen without a new name. 



5. Eulima aciculata Pease. 



PEASE. Proc. Zool. Soc. Eond. 1860, p. 438. 



Reeve. Conch. Ie. Vol. XV, Eulima, fig. 36. 



CLESSIN. Martini-Chemn. Conch. Cab. Ed. II, Vol. I, Eulimidae, p. 19, PI. 4, fig. 11. 



Stat. 43. Pulu Sarassa, Postillon Islands. Up to 36 M. Coral. 1 Spec. 



As far as I ara aware, this species has only been recorded from the Sandwich-isles, but 

 If it be the same as E. acicula Gould, it seems to be more widely spread, at least I have 

 received specimens under this latter name from Mauritius. 



6. Eulima attcnuata Sowerby. 



SowERBY. Reeve. Conch. Ie. Vol. XV, Eulima, fig. 46. 



Tryon. Man. of Conch. Vol. VIII, p. 282, PI. 70, fig. 97. 



CLESSIN. Martini-Chemn. Conch. Cab. Ed. II, Vol. I, Eulimidae, p. 3, PI. 1, fig. 6. 



Stat. 52. 9 3'-4 S., ii9°s6'7E. Savu Sea. 959 M. Globigerine ooze. 2 Spec. 

 Stat. 178. 2° 40' S., I28°37'.5E. Ceram Sea. 835 M. Blue mud. 1 Spec. 



The specimens don't agree in every respect with the description, a. o. I see no faint 

 band at the suture, the mouth of one of the specimens from Stat. 52, seems to be more 

 effuse, but comparing it with the specimen from Stat. 178, I think this may be caused by its 

 being slightly damaged. So_ I think it is preferable, not to describe a new species on such 

 slicht differences. 



7. Eulima vitrea A. Adams. 



A. Adams. Sow. Thes. Conch. Vol. II, p. 799, PI. 169, fig. 35. 



REEVE. Conch. Ie. Vol. XV, Eulima, fig. 19. 



CLESSIN. Martini-Chemn. Conch. Cab. Ed. II, Vol. I, Eulimidae, p. 10, PI. 2, fig. 7. 



Stat. 74. 5°3'.5S., H9°o'E. Makassar Strait. 450 M. Globigerine ooze. 1 Spec. 



Exactly agreeing with the quoted descriptions.
