BULIMUS.— Plate LXXXI. 



ously streaked or banded, columella and interior of 



the aperture rose-purple. 

 Hab. New Granada. 



Except in the rose-purple hue of the columella and 

 aperture, the pattern of colouring is too variable in this 

 beautiful species to particularize. Its graceful effused 

 OTOwth is characteristic.

A delicate inflated species of a dark transparent brown 

 colour, marked with dark zigzag lines near the apex, and

 distinguished collector.

 striated, colutnella reflected, apertiu'e rather small,

Hah. Java. 



Care should be taken not to confound this species with 

 the green variety of B. laviis, elevated to the rank of a 

 species by Mousson, under the name B. furcillatus, from 

 which it is certainly distinct.

A pale blue-white shell, remarkably characterized by a 



narrow opake-white zone round the middle of the whorls, 



exactly in the place of the suture, concealed in all but 



the last whorl by the superposition of one whorl upon the 



other.
