Bab. Burma : Damotha, near Moulmain {Stoliczka). 



" This species is somewhat allied to D. puppensis, Blf., differing 

 fi'om it by its constant smaller size, more tumid or convex, and 

 more widely costulated wliorls, and by the aperture being at the 

 columellar base rounded or nearly so, instead of deeply angular 

 and canaliculate, as it always appears to be in puppensis. 



" The present species was found to be very common on the 

 perpendicular limestone cliffs at Damotha, especially in localities 

 u here a little water trickled down the rock. The animals seemed 

 to feed on the minute alga3 which were growing in the locality."
