COCHLOSTYLA OF MINDORO PROVINCE 



533 



U.S.N.M. no. 313660 contains 14 specimens also collected by 

 Pedro de Mesa at Anduyanan, Paluan, Mindoro, which yield the 

 following measurements: 



1 Average. 



» Greatest. 



» Least. 



These agree so completely in every way with the specimen from 

 Tara that I am wondering if a mistake may not have been made 

 in their labeling. It is an extremely unusual state of affairs. 



The ovate form, pale tip, exceedingly heavy periostracum, as well 

 as the detail of color pattern, differentiate this species from the other 

 Cochlostylas of Mindoro.
