"This shell in inaay respects assimilates to A. conicus, milii,. 

 but is more openly umbilicated ; in another direction it has the 

 character of the subgenus Biori/.v, viz, inform of mouth, the short 

 constriction, aiid position of operculum close to the edge of the 

 aperture." {Godivin- Austen.) 



In the variety seen on plate 144, figs. 1, 1 a, the costulation ou 

 the swollen portion of the whorl is much stronger and the distance 

 from the aperture much greater.

" Most Jiearly allied to A. umlonalis, B., from Pegu. It is 

 distinguished from tbat species by its more raised spire, smaller 

 size, shorter sutural tube, and shallower suture, by its less oblique 

 mouth and non-descending last whorl, and by its duplex slightly 

 expanded peristome, which contrasts strongly with the broadly 

 reversed lip of A. timbonalis. That species also has the upper \\ horls 

 much more closely, but less sinuously costulated than are those 

 of A. imjrami. In the subangulation of the last whorl at the 

 periphery there is some resemblance to the little Thavet Myo
