SHELLS FROM THE MOLUCCAS. 149 
2. Nanina (Xesta) Strubelli Boettger. 
Boettger, Bericht Senckenb. naturf. Gesellsch. 1891, 
p. 253, pl. 3, figs. 2, 22, 
Of this species, which Prof. Boettger has distinguished 
from the preceding by its depressed shape and square-ellip- 
tical aperture, one specimen has been collected by Baron 
van Hoévell at Porto, Saparoea, which, after Boettger, 
belongs to the type, but is very large, having a diam. 
major of 43 mill. Of two specimens collected by Martin, 
the one from Hitoe, Amboyna, is quite typical in its measu- 
rements, while the other, from Poeloe Poea (near Boeanó), 
is only a trifle smaller than the first, but more depressed. 
3. Macrochlamys Martini, n. sp. 
(Plate 3, fig. 1). 
Testa perforata, subdepressa, sericeo-nitens , lineis spira- 
libus confertis sculpta, pallide cornea, infra pallidior, ad 
suturam zona opaca, luteo-albida picta; spira convexa, sutura 
superficialis; anfractibus 4, convexiusculi, ultimus depresse- 
rotundatus, antice haud descendens; apertura paulum obliqua , 
late lunata; peristoma rectum, acutum; margo columellaris 
ad insertionem breviter reflezus. 
Diam. maj. 8'/,, min. 7!/,, alt. 5; apert. lat. 4!/,, alt. 4 mill. 
This new species is mainly distinguished from the smaller 
species of Macrochlamys from the East-Indian Archipelago , 
by the impressed spiral lines. M. consul Pfr. and fulvocarnea 
Martens are much larger and quite different in colour. 
From M. (Hyalina) amboinensis Martens, which is the only 
allied species of the Moluccas recorded by v. Martens, it 
may be distinguished by its shape, paler colour, smaller 
perforation, and shallow suture, but above all by the dis- 
tinct spiral lines. 
The specimens were collected with the next species by 
Prof. Martin, and I have much pleasure in dedicating this 
species to its discoverer.
