 Iffib. Cabanatuan, Province of Nueva Eaja, Island of 

 Luzon ; Cuming. 

 There is a very singular character attending this species ; 

 the shell is of a thin transparent horny substance, covered 

 by au opake straw-coloured layer except in those places 

 by whicli the pattern is produced, the spots have thus an 

 appearance, so to speak, of little windows in the shell. 



very pellucid, sliglitly umbilicated, whorls five in 

 number, smooth or transversely and longitudinally 

 minutely striated, lip simple ; pale horny yellow.

 Of a beautiful transparent glassy structure, through 



which the internal winding of the columella may be plainly 



seen. It is very similar in form to the B. Fanatnensis, 



and is from tlie same locaUtv-
