Original description : — " Like L. aspirans, but more globose and 

 swollen ; apparently smooth and polished, but under the lens

closely spirally somewhat absolutely [? obsoletely] striated ; um- 

 bilicus less open : aperture more effused, margin at base sub- 

 angulate, not rounded, either uniformly white or beautifully 

 marked — ' zebra-like.' " (jVevill.)

 Austen). 



In addition to the type Nevill indicates, I.e. p. 281, " var. 

 nicobarica. Martens," but he gives no description, and I have been 

 unable to trace the name in any of von Martens' articles. 



Presumably this form is from the Nicobar group, but Nevill 

 does not state this. Kobelt in ' Das Tierreich " indicates the 

 Nicobars for the species, probably on the strength of the name.
