before this Society as large varieties of H. Grayi, Pfr., from 

 Bottle Forest. 



Hanley and Theobald, in their Conchologia Indica, state that 

 Australian specimens cannot be distinguished from the shell 

 delineated in their figure ; to my eye the figure indicates dwarf 

 specimens found by me on Comerong Island, Shoalhaven. The 

 species may have been introduced into the Island of Ceylon in 

 boxes of plants taken from New South Wales, specimens having, 

 perhaps, been sent by the late Sir William Denison, when 

 Governor of N.S.W., to the Indian Museum, as that gentleman 

 was constantly contributing specimens to the Indian colony.
