MOLl-USCA OF IXDIA.. 253 



This is a sino-le specimen, but as its form is very different from 

 any other in tins particular group oi: Macrochlamys, I am induced 

 to give it a name. It comes apparently nearest to M. rabani of 

 Chittagong, but in that shell the columella is not so oblique and 

 the last whorl does not descend at all at the aperture. 



MAcnocHLA.MYS CACHAEiCA, var. GLAUCA. (Plate CXXI. fig. 5.) 



Locality. Borpani, foot of Dafla Hills {Godwin-Austen). 



The type is described in A^ol. I. p. 118, and the figure (Plate 

 XXIV. iig. 6) is that of a full-grown specimen. From the Burroi 

 Gorge, base of Dafla Hills, I have smaller examples, the largest 

 16-5 mm. in major diameter. The shell now figured is from the 

 Indian Museum, Calcutta, collected by me, and bears the MS. name 

 of M. omphaloides, Nevill. There are a num ber in all stages of 

 growth, and the one figured is only 14-0 inm. in maj. diam. 



I may here explain why the above MS. name is alluded to. On 

 my returu from the Dafla Expedition, I placed the gTeater part ol: 

 the Zonitidse m Geoffrey NevilFs hands for him to work out ; 

 unfortunately he was not spared to complete the task, and now a 

 number of these species come back to my hands through Mr. N. 

 Annandale. As it is possible the unpublished names of these 

 shells have spread to private collections, it may save trouble to 

 mention them. 



omphahides appears in the Hand-list, Nevill's copy, p._ 25, 8 

 lines from top, var. of Nanina rnmriensis, Blf., "■ 12 Borpani, coll. 

 Major H. H.Godwin-x\usten." The animal oicacliarica var. r/lauca 

 has never been examined, and should the anatomy prove unlike 

 that shown on Plate XXVII. (Vol. I.) fig. 2 o of 31. cacharica, 

 G. NeviU's name should be adopted in preference to glauca. 



Macrochlamys cinctula, Xevill MS., n. sp. Type var. (Plate 

 CXXI. fig. 9.) 



Nevill's Hand-list, i. 1878, p. 24, under No. 84, Nanina 

 (Macrochlamys) Iwnesta, Gould, var. nov. Not allied to this 

 last-named species. 



Locality. Dounsgyiug, Burma {R. Bunr/erford). 



Shell closely pertorate ; sculpture none, finely streaked trans- 

 versely by the lines of growth ; colour?, specimen bleached ; spire 

 flatly pyramidal; apex blunt; suture impressed; whorls 5, 

 flattened, rounded on the periphery ; aperture broadly lunate ; 

 peristome somewhat thickened below ; columellar margin very 

 oblique, reflected close to umbilicus. 



Size: maj. diam. 13-5; alt. axis 6-0 mm. 



This shell is of the type of iM. vesica in general form and the 

 very oblique columellar margin, but placed side by side there are 

 minor differences. Only one specimen was in the tube sent, which 

 goes back to the Indian Museum, Calcutta.
