142 CIILORIÏIS MAFORENSIS. 



There is another very small specimen in the Leyden 

 Museum, which having the margin of the peristome already 

 reflected, I do not consider as a young one (PL 7, f. 5). 

 It could be Pilsbry's var. micromphalus '), was is not 

 having a rather large umbilicus. It is labelled only "Mo- 

 lucca's".

 damaged.

This species was hitherto only recorded from the main- 

 land of New Guinea, viz. Kapaur '), on the south-west 

 coast, and Hamatawarea near Fak-Fak ■*), on the west coast.
