band becomes light reddish-brown and spreads over the surface of the 

 whorls. The basal band is wider than the other, fading out on its 

 inner edge. There is also a small umbilical patch of the same dark 

 color. The surface is somewhat glossy, the first 4 whorls having a 

 microscopic sculpture of minute raised points, regularly arranged 

 (as in Chloritis); last whorl marked with growth-lines, not punctate. 

 Wiiorls 5^, moderately convex, very slowly widening, the last rounded 

 peripherally but showing the faint trace of a peripheral angle; not de- 

 scending in front; base somewhat flattened. The aperture is but 

 little oblique, wide, banded inside. Peristome narrowly reflexed, 

 colored by the bands, dilated at the coliunellar insertion, half con- 

 cealing the umbiUcus.

Yonakuni-jima, Ryukyu. Cotypes No. 95837 A. N. S. P., from No. 

 1507 of Mr. Hirase's collection. 



A very handsome species of the caliginosa group, closely resembling 

 E. okinoerabuensis in shape, but the last whorl, viewed from above, 

 is narrower, and the minute sculpture of the spire is different. The 

 somewhat flattened base and the shape of the basal lip are features 

 like E. caliginosa. 



Eulota luhuana latispira n. subsp. 



The shell is large, bright greenish-yellow, with three brown bands, 

 coarsely striate, with the usual fine spiral lines. The spire is very 

 wide, whorls more slowly and more regularly increasing than in luhuana 

 or senckenhergiana, the last whorl narrow^er. Umbilicus ample, regu- 

 larly tapering within.

Hakusan, Kaga. Types No. 83913 A. N. S. P., from No. 562a 

 of Mr. Hirase's collection. 



The spiral bands may be dark and conspicuous, or very pale. The 

 lip is flesh colored, varying in shade in different shells. 



Eulota (.ffigista) perangulata n. sp. 



The shell is umbilicate (width of umbilicus contained 4^ times in 

 the diameter of the shell), conic above, convex below, strongly angular 

 at the periphery; light brown, dull, finely striate, sometimes with some 

 very delicate, short, thread-like cuticular appendages on some of the 

 striae in places. Under the cuticle there are very fine spiral lines, 

 visible just in front of the parietal callus. Whorls 61, moderately 

 convex, slowly increasing, the last strongly angular peripherally, the
