SITALA PHULONGENSIS, n. sp. (Plate X. fig. 4.) 
Locality. East of the Kopili river, North Cachar (one specimen) 
(G.-A.). 
Shell elongately pyramidal, scarcely perforate; sculpture, 6 to 7 
well-raised longitudinal or spiral ribs on the whorls, fine close con- 
centric ribbing on base ; colour pale sienna-brown; spire high, sides 
slightly convex, apex blunt; suture well impressed; whorls 53, 
sides convex; aperture semicircular, oblique; peristome thin, colu- 
mellar margin vertical, slightly reflected. 
Size: major diam. 0°10 inch, alt. axis 0-09 inch. 
a 2:5 mm., i 2°3mm. 
I have more than twenty of this species, which is distinguished 
from its near allies by its more elongate form, rounder aperture, and 
the fewer and stronger liration. J have named it after the trigono- 
metrical station of Phulong, near which it was first found by me, but 
it is very common at Cherra Poongee. 
The shell figured is the single specimen from Phulong, and is not 
quite mature.

«The species has the general form of a rather large and elevated 
Con. palmaria, Bs., but the spiral ribs are more distant and stronger, 
except at the periphery, which is less sharply carinated. I have 
not seen the animal; but, judging from the general resemblance of 
the shell to that of infula, it is tolerably certain that both belong to 
one and the same genus.” 
SiTaLa LimaTa, n. sp. (Plate X. figs. 9, 9 a.)
