 Auct, 



20 Ainbegammoa, &c., Ceylon ; coll. H. F. Blaiiford and H. Nevill, Esqrs. 



Specimens, even in youth, very rarely show sucli bands within 

 the aperture as are depicted in Con. Iconica, pi. 123, fig. 5. 



29. Paludomus [Philopotamis] bicincta. 



Paludomus bicinctns, Reeve, Proc. ZooL Soc. 1852, " Mountain streams

These agree with Mr. Hanley's figure, 1. c, and M. Brot's pi. 5, 

 fig. 11. They measure — long. 20, diam. 15| mil. 



15 Balcadua Pass, &c., Ceylon ; coll. H. Nevill and H. F. Blanford,

A smaller form than the preceding, agreeing with Con.

 " ex coll. Angas." 



2 Matelle, Ceylon ; coil. F. Layai-d, Esq. [as " P. hicinctus " var.]. 



A very distinct species, admirably described by M. Brot, and 

 which I had long intended describing myself. I have little 

 doubt M. Brot's specimens were from the same source as mine, 

 Mr. Angas having been in coirespondence with the late Mr. 

 F. Layard.
