Hub. Ceylon : Punduloya [E. C. Green). 



"A very remarkable term, differing from all the known Ceylon 

 species ot the genus in having a sinus or notch in the upper dextral 

 margin, in addition to the usual perforation at the base." (Sykes.) 



A'ar. robusta, Fulton. 



Catauhs t/reeni, var. rohuita, Fulton, Jounj. Malac. x, 190o, 

 p. 102, pi. 9, fig-. 1 ; Sykes, op. cit. xii, 190o, p. uo. 



" Shell more solid than typical greeni, somewhat broader in 

 form, the oblique striae and ci'enulations at suture uiore con- 

 s])icuous, the notch on upper right margin of peristome varies 

 I'rom being almost entirely absent, to specimens having a small 

 but clearly defined V-shaped one. 



" With reference to the distinct notch supposed to be charac- 

 teristic of r/reeni, I have before me a specimen of the typical form 

 from Punduloya, which scarcely shows the notch, thus demon- 

 strating the instability of that character. 



" Major diam. 7.4 ; alt. 17 millini." (Falton.)
