IITALIMAX. 501 



" In the form of the buccal mass, the broad radula and its 

 numerous teeth, andamamca resembles in a remarkable manner 

 the curiously formed New Zealand slutr -/«»<???« antipodanim. Gray, 

 described and figured by INIr. C. Knight in the 'Transactions of 

 tlie Linnean Society,' vol. xxii, read June2, 185U; and they all 

 must be regnrded, with Succinea and others, as one great group, 

 indicated so well and on such good. grounds by Mr. P. Fischer." 

 {Godwin- Austen.) 



Prof. Cockerell refers to a specimen in the British Museum, 

 labelled " Andaman Islands, Dr. J. Anderson," as being typical, 

 but having the mouth strongly curved, colour yellowish-white, 

 without markings, and the foot slightly orange-tinted. 



Yar. punctulata, Cockerell.

"Yellowish white; foot slightly orange-tinted. Minute grey 

 specks on mantle and grey streaks on hind part of body." 

 (Cockerell.) 



Hah. Andaman Islands {Anderson). 



"The mantle of this specimen is flattish, so that the outline of 

 the slug is greatly depressed compared with the typical one. The 

 jaw does not seem quite like that figured by Grod« in- Austen for 

 the type ; but I was notable to sufficiently exauune it. It seemed 

 to me that it had some sort of central projection. It is possible 

 that punchdahix may be a distinct species ; but there is not yet 

 sufiicient evidence for classing it as such."' {CocJcerell.) 



Nevill refers to a new species of Hi/alima.c, found by de Eoep- 

 storff at the Andamans *, but he does not describe it, and it is 

 not, therefore, at all impossible that his slug was the same as the 

 present species.
