The cameleopard Bulimus. Shell elougately oblong, 

 spire much produced, whorls seven in numljer, flatly 

 convex, the last obscui'ely keeled, ei>luiiirll;i mclicd, 

 aperture rather small; chesnut yrllnu, i |ii(li rmi.s

Broderip, Pro. Zool. Soc, 1840, p. 157. 



Hab. Sibonga, Island of Zebu, Philippines (on the leaves 

 of bushes) ; Cuming. 



Distinguished by its elongated dactylose fonu, and by 

 the bold longitudinally striped pattern of the epidermis. 



Species 37. (Fig. a and b. Mus. Cuming.) 



Bulimus Boholensis. Bid. testa subelongato-obloiigd, 

 anfractibus senis, leviter convexis, columelld vix intortd; 

 palUde castaned, apiceni versus J/avicaiite, epideriiikle 

 niaculas sparsas strigasque acute vndatas, srepe aiigustas, 

 numerosas, prectermitft'tde, per'dremate purpureo-nigri- 

 cante. 



The Bohol Bulimus. Shell somewhat elongately ob- 

 long, whorls six in number, slightly convex, columella 

 a little twisted ; pale chesnut, yellowish towards the 

 apex, epidermis leaving sharply zig-zag streaks, some- 

 times numerous and narrow, with scattered spots, 

 peritreme purple-black. 



Broderip, Pro. Zool. Soc, 1840, p, 158. 



Hab. Island of Bohol, Philippines (on leaves of trees) ; 

 Cuming. 



In general aspect this species approximates closely to 

 the preceding ; it is, however, less elongated in form, and 

 the epidermal pattern is of an oblique zig-zag character, 

 which is sometimes developed with peculiar neatness. 



Species 38. (Mus. Cuming.) 

 Bulimus Calista. Bul. testd elongato-ovatd, anfractibus 

 septenis, convexis, columelld subiiUortd; stramiiied, 



epidermidi' tci,uiriih1, in sirigis lomjdiKliHttlUivx luidntix, 

 peritri'inatif piirpiireo-uigricuide, apice nijb-casla/ieu. 



The Calista Bulimus. Shell elongately ovate, whorls 

 seven in nimiber, convex, columella slightly tmsted ; 

 straw-colour, epidermis rather thin, in waved longi- 

 tudinal streaks, peritreme piu'ple-black, apex reddish 

 chesnut. 



Broderip, Pro. Zool. Soc, 1842, p. 152. 



Hab. Tanhay, Island of Negros, Philippines (on the lea\fs 

 of bushes) ; Cuming. 



The B. Calista is of a delicate straw-colour, with a \ery 

 light epidermis ; in form it approaches the B. Boliolensis. 

 and the coloiu'ing of the peritreme and columella is nearly 

 the same. 



Species 39. (Mus. Cuming.) 



Bulimus dactylus. Bul. testd pyramidali-oblongd, basin

The finger Bulimus. Shell pyramidally oblong, pecu- 

 liarly effused towards the base ; whorls seven in 

 number, convex, the last obscurely keeled ; colimiella 

 slightly twisted ; light chesnut-brown, epidermis 

 longitudinally nebulously waved, leaving a spiral 

 Linear mark round the lower part, peritreme chesnut - 

 black. 



Broderip, Pro. Zool. Soc, 1842. 



Hab. Mountains of Tayabas, Island of Luzon, Philippines 

 (on the leaves of trees) ; Cuming. 



This species, of which Mi-. Cuming collected but few 

 specimens, may be recognised by its acuminated growth 

 and effused development of the aperture. It appears to 

 come nearer the B. carinatus of Lea in these respects, 

 than any that has been attributed to that species. 



Species 40. (Mus. Cuming.) 

 Bulimus Diana. Bul. testd elongato-oblongd, anfractibiu 

 septenii, convexis, columelld subintortd ; stramiimi 

 apicem versus eburned, epidermide tenui longitudinaUli-t 

 nebulatd et strigatd, peritremate eburned.
