" Comparing this with A. r/ramim, it has for its size much closer 

 costulation. It is more narrowly umbilicate than A. hurrailensis, 

 ■which is a much smaller shell." {Godirin-Austen.)

Original descrij)tion. : — " Testa perforata, ovato-globosa, minutis- 

 sime confertim striata, cinereo-cornea ; spira conica, apice 

 obtusiuscvdo, rutilo, sutura valde impressa ; anfractibus 4 convexis, 

 ultimo veutricoso, ab apertura subremote constricto, turn pone 

 labrum tumidiusculo, la^vigato, tubulum brevissimum suturalem 

 gerente ; apertura vix obliqua, peristomate duphci, interno 

 continuo, expanso, interdum breviter porrecto, externo dilatato, 

 reflexo, ad uuibilicum processu auriculari brevi, subito reflexo, 

 perforationem subtegente munito. Operculum normali, concavi- 

 usculo, planato. 



"Long. 41, diam. obliq. 4 mill." 



Hab. hulk: Pankabari, 1000 ft., Eungim Yalley, 4000 ft., 

 near Uarjeeling (Stoliczl:a, Bhinford, Mainv-aring, Theohcdd). 



" This shell, which seems to be not uncommon on the v\est 

 side of the Eungun Yalley, as well as at a lower elevation in the 

 Sikkira ranges, was forwarded to me by Mr. Blanford in 1857. In 

 form it approaches A. amphora and constrictus, and, like the latter, 

 which belongs to the same type in the mode of constriction, it is 

 remarkable for the shortness of the sutural tube, but is at once 

 distinguished by the process of the peristome at the umbilicus."
