ZOJflTID-i;. 



sides strongly couvex, apex obtuse, suture deep ; whorls 6|, 

 convex, the last larger, rounded at periphery, convex beneath ; 

 aperture semieircularly lunate, nearly vertical ; peristome thin, 

 columellar margin rather broadly reflected, covering perforation. 



Diam. 2*25, height 2-1 mm. 



Hah. Khasi Hills. 



This is very near A', nana, but higher and with an additional 

 whorl.

This is another close ally of K. nana and K. rcsimda, and has 

 nearly the same dimensions as the latter ; it is even more globose, 

 the sides of the spire more convex, and with the last whorl 

 proportionately larger. I have not seen a specimen- 



Hah. Sikhim. 



[Locallti/. Shell figured (pi. 103) is from the Eisett chu Valley, 

 South Sikhim ( W. Robert). 



Original description: — Shell glohosely conoid, scarcely perforate; 

 sculpture very fine, close, regular, transverse striation ; colour 

 pale sienna-brown ; spire conical, less than the major diameter, 

 apex blunt, sides convex, suture moderately imjiressed ; whorls 6, 

 rather couvex, closely wound ; aperture narrowly lunate, vertical ; 

 peristome thin, columellar margin oblique and but slightly 

 i'eflected. 



Size: maj. diam. 1*9, alt. axis 1'6 mm. 



This pretty little shell, of which the type described by me is in 

 the Indian Museum, Calcutta, appears to be fairly numei'ousin the 

 deep hot valleys of Sikhim.] 



427. Kaliella ? Ihotaensis, Godwin-Austen, Mol. Ind. \, 1882, p. 22, 

 pi. 5, fig. 2 (shell). 



Shell imperforate, convesly conoid, depressedly subturbinate, 

 with fine subcostulate transverse striation under the microscope, 

 often obsolete, radiately striate beneath, pale brown ; spii-e conoid, 

 sides convex, apex obtuse, suture impressed; whorls 5|, convex, 

 the last subangulate at periphery, rounded below ; aperture 

 oblique, roundly lunate ; peristome thin, columellar margin 

 vertical, reflected. 



Diam. 2-2, height 1'7 mm. 



Hah. Lhota Naga Hills. 



This is also allied to A', nana, but has a much lower spire.
