Stat. 104. Sulu-harbour, Sulu-island. 14 M. Sand. 1 Spec. 



The only specimen is not intact, the spire and aperture being slightly damaged. I owe 

 the identification to Mr. J. C. Melvill. 



2. Syrnola sp. 



Stat. 66. Bank between islands of Bahuluwang and Tambolungan, south of Saleyer. 8 — 10 M. 

 Dead coral, Halimeda, Lithothamnion. 1 Spec. 



This specimen is too bad for identification or description, the nuclear whorls are wanting, 

 the mouth is severely damaged. 



3. Syrnola sp. 



Stat. 178. 2°4o'S., I28°37'.5E. 835 M. Blue mud. 1 Spec. 

 Same observation as for the preceding species, the shell is really only a fragment. 



Elusa A. Adams. 

 1. Elusa subcarnca n. sp. PI. XVII, fig. 8. 



Stat. ij. Sailus ketjil, Paternoster-islands. Up to 27 M. Coral and coralsand. 1 Spec. 



Shell subulate, gradate, solid, light flesh-coloured, rather shining. Nucleus wanting, sub- 

 sequent whorls about 8, at first rapidly increasing in breadth, than subequal, rendering the shell 

 subcylindrical ; the whorls are separated by a conspicuous suture and are angular just below it. 

 Sculpture consisting of broad, slightly convex ribs, with distinct intermediate grooves, number 

 of ribs about 20 on last whorl, moreover there are very fine growth-striae, last whorl elongately 

 rounded. Aperture oval, angular and even canaliculate above, rounded below, with a blunt, 

 only slightly arched outer margin ; columellar margin arched with a rather strong plait in its 

 upper part, columellar and outer margins connected by a thick layer of enamel on the body- 

 whorl. Interior of aperture with rather coarse lirae, terminating at some distance from the outer 

 margin. Columellar margin slightly reflected over an umbilical slit. 



Alt. 9 7„, lat. 2 1 /,; apert. alt. i 3 / 4 , lat. 1 Mill. 



I know no species to which this new one is nearly allied ; it is remarkable for its sub- 

 cylindrical shape and fiesh-colour.
