spire elongate, sides nearly flat, apex pointed; suture shallow; 

 whorls 9, sides flatly convex; aperture nearly circular, vertical; 

 peristome double, continuous, the inner expanded and slightly 

 reflected on the left side ; a well marked umbiHcal keel commences 

 on the lower side of the last whorl in front and curving to the left 

 extends to the lower margin behind the aperture. 



Size : major diameter 5*8, alt. axis. I4'5 mm 



This species is represented by three specimens, two are unfor- 

 nately old and imperfect. 



Eupomatias oakesi, n. sp, 



(Text-figs. 5 D and 6 B.) 



Locality.— AboT Hills {Capf. G. F. T. Oakes, R.E.). 



Shell narrowly perforate, elongately turreted, solid, shiney ; 

 sculpture close regular fine ribbing, on the last whorl in front only 

 seen near suture, then becoming quite smooth ; colour ruddy umber 

 brown in type, pale ochraceous in two others ; spire elongate, sides 

 slightly convex, apex rather blunt ; suture impressed ; whorls 7, flat- 

 ly convex; aperture circular, angulate above ; peristome thickened, 

 closely double, continuous just behind on the columella margin, 

 high up there is a very strong umbilical keel much curved, which ter- 

 minates just behind the peristome on the lower left margin ; it shows 

 white against the brown colour of the shell, and is quite bead-like 

 and raised (text-fig. 6 B) ; operculum horny, flat in front, multi- 

 spiral, nucleus central. 



Size: major diameter 375, alt. axis no mm. 



From Shimang in the Abor Hills I have a single specimen 

 of a Pomatias, not fully grown, with sculpture far coarser than 

 any of the species now described from those hills ; it has seven 

 whorls, and is evidently a new species, but not in a state to 

 describe.
