LAND AJJD FEESHWATER 



in many a magnificent forest, cutting our way up to the main ridges 

 and peaks, and, while prosecuting the Survey, collecting the many 

 interesting objects of natural history that abounded on every side. 

 To Mr. Ogle's diligence as a collector many a new species has been 

 added to the Indian list, both in birds and shells. 



Mr. Chennell, another assistant whose name occurs often in 

 previous parts, also fell a victim to the Survey work. To Colonel 

 R. Woodthorpe my best thanks are also due : he has sent home 

 many interesting shells from Gilgit, the Shan Hills, and Siam 

 Frontier. 



From the Eastern Naga Hills and Upper Burmah and Perak 

 some interesting species were collected by Mr. William Doherty, 

 and were kindly sent to me by Mr. T. H. Aldrich, of Cincinnati ; 

 several of these I described in the ' Proceedings ' of the Zoological 

 Society, and are figured now for the first time. This Part treats 

 of species belonging to the genera Ahjcans, Diplommatina, Ciiclo- 

 phoras, Otojjouia, and Fujnaa.

Locality. Khasi Hills and Munipur {in coll. Godwin- Austen). 



Orifjinal description : — " Shell globosely turbinate, rather openly 

 umbilicated ; sculpture smooth on upper whorls, regular close 

 ribbing on the swell of the last ; colour pale ochraceous or ruddy 

 brown ; spire conoid, rounded at apex ; suture impressed ; whorls 

 4, the last not swollen, contracted in front of the rather short 

 sutural tube, then enlarging again into two parallel ridges, which 

 adjoin the aperture ; aperture ovate, angular above and below, 

 rounded on the inner margin. Operculum pale in colour, smooth 

 in front. 



"Size: maj. diam. 3-0 ; alt. axis 1-25 mm. 



"The specimens were found in the Ivhasi Hills, but the exact 

 locality is not recorded. One specimen I obtained south of the 

 Barak River on the road from the Naga Hills to !Munipur. Although 

 this shell, in size and most of its characters, is like A. nndtirwjosus, 

 G.-A., of the Naga Hills, it diff'ers materially, more especially in 

 the form of the aperture and in the ridges on the expanded portion 

 of the last whorl."
