whorls there is a subdued costulate surface ; colour umber-brown 

 with an ochraceous tint; spii-e depressedly conoid, sides flat, apex 

 subacaminate ; suture impressed ; whorls 6, very evenly increasing, 

 the last narrow ; aperture circularly ovate ; peristome thin ; 

 columellar margin very weak, a very slight reflection.

About a dozen specimens were collected by Dr. Annandale, they 

 represent the same species of which Dr. Stoliczka had the animal 

 figured from Parasnath which he named lecifthis with a query ; of 

 this drawing I gave a copy Vol. I. Plate XIX. fig. 5. Now 

 Helix lecj/this was described by Benson as from the Eajmahal Hills, 

 and although I have seen a considerable number of this type of 

 Macrochlcanys from that nei^libourhood, none are at all like this 

 Parasnath species, I therefore think it safe to give it a name, 

 for it has suflicieutly well marked characters to distinguish it from 

 31. suhjecta and M. vesicida, seen also in tlie animal. Of one 

 soaked out, a good deal more was seen than usual. The terminal 

 end of the foot is very dark coloured on both sides u]) to the mucous 

 gland, separated by a pale line on the keel, dark also on the head. 

 The right shell-lobe rather long and pointed. The generative 

 organs were attenuate in the quiescent stage. The sperraatophore 

 is very long, gradually thickening to a thick rounded end. The 

 amatorial organ has a very finely attenuate dart. (Plate CXXIX, 

 fig. 4.)

Machochlamys eadia, n. sp. (Plate CXXVIII. figs. 9, 9 a.) 



Locality. Tundiani, near INTurree {Theobald). 



Shell globosely conoid, shiny, transparent, narrowly perforate ; 

 sculpture quite smooth, crossed byfine lines of growth, a few showing 

 very white and defined ; colour milky white, in another umber- 

 brown ; spire depressedly conoid ; suture moderately impressed ; 

 whorls 6, regularly increasing, last well rounded on periphery, 

 flatly convex above ; aperture very broadly lunate, breadth 

 greater than height, subvertical ; peristome thin ; columellar margin 

 subvertical and xevy slightly reflected near umbilicus. 



Size : maj. diam. 14'0, min. 12^ ; alt. axis 7"0 mm. 



Two specimens were sent me by Theobald, one of which I figure, 

 and I have found two from MurreeinDr.W.T. Blanford's collection, 

 the specimens he refers to on p. 80, Faun. Brit. Ind., Moll. It is 

 exceedingly close to M. vesicida., of Mussoorie, but there is a 

 difference in the higher spire and the wind of the whorls, in the 

 Murree shell. A comnarison of the animals should be made.
