 The general size of this fine species is about 2 \ inches long by 1 J 

 broad. All the varieties were found by Mr. Cuming in deep forests, 

 on the leaves of trees. In none of them hardly do the markings 

 commence before the fourth whorl. — W. J. B.

The variety a. is the shortest. The third specimen is deprived of 

 its epidermis, or nearly so, and the ground-colour is exposed. The 

 first four whorls are chestnut, gradually deepening in colour, and the 

 last whorl is of a rich purple brown : the shell is obscurely banded, 

 especially on the last whorl. 



Mr. Cuming found this species on the leaves of trees. — W. J. B. 



Helix (Cochlostyla) Satyrus. Hel. testd subpupiformi anfrac- 

 tibus 5 subventricosis, purpureo-castaned, epidermide fused ; aper- 

 turd ovatd, albidd ; labii limbo purpureo- castaneo. 



Long. 2 ; lat. 1^ poll. 



Hab. in insula Tablas. 



Obscure oblique stripes and bands occur in some of the individuals 

 of this species, which, though it approaches the last, differs from 

 it in many points, especially in the form of the apex and the shape 

 and structure of the aperture. 



Found by Mr. Cuming on leaves of trees. — W. J. B. 



Bulinus. 

 Bulinus ^Egle. Bui. testd fulvd ; anfractu ultimo juxta suturam

The first four whorls are very pale, but the last is deep fulvous : 

 a white line runs round the suture of the body- whorl. 



Mr. Cuming found this species in a dense forest, on the leaves of 

 trees.
