176. Achatinella germana Newcomb. 



A. gcrniana Newc. P. Zool. Soc. London. 1S53. p. 151, pi. xxiv. fig. 61. 



Shell dextral, ovately conical; whorls 6, flatly convex; aper- 

 ture ovate ; lip acute, thickened within ; columella brown, short 

 and tubercular ; colour chestnut, with fine obsolete darker trans- 

 verse lines ; a white band traverses the last sutural whorl and cuts 

 the body whorl centrally ; around the columella is a broad w^Jiite 

 band, losing itself in the aperture. Long. 16/20, lat. 8/20 poll. 



Closely resembles the A. so/iiaria, and but for the widely dis- 

 tant localities, might be taken for a variety of the same species. 

 The markings and columellse are, however, quite distinct. — Newc. 



Hab. Makawao. — Newc.

 be of a dark color, second whorl of a slate color, third whorl of a 

 slate brown, and the fourth whorl brown.
