" All the specimens in Lieut.-Col. Grodwin-Austeii's collection, 

 and also those collected by Mr. Doherty, are white-lipped shells; 

 among the specimens received by Col. Beddume the red-lipped 

 predominate. 



Fig. 12. — Cyclopliortts pwciloneurus. 



" The coloration is very variable ; in some, as in the tvpe, the 

 marbling occurs in tine zigzag lines far apart, in other examples 

 these are so closely run together as to give the shell a beautiful 

 ruddy colour." {Godivin-Ansten S,- Beddome.) 



This species remained unligured until Dr. Kobelt illustrated 

 the variety aureolahris in the Conchylien-Cabinet from a specimen 

 in the Mollendorff collection. The shell now figured represents 

 the typical, white-lipped form. It is from the Beddome collection 

 and measures : Major diam. 33, min. 27'5 mm. Ait. (inch apart.) 

 28 mm.
