40 LAND AND FRESHWATER 
No. 206 of Hand-list, p. 42, stands as ‘* Nanina (Microcystis) di- 
drichsenti, Moérch.” ‘ 
“‘ Thirty specimens from Nicobar Islands, coll. Dr. F. Stoliczka,” so 
that it is possible they may not be the same as the shell I figure from 
Batte Malve.

Nanina (Sagdinella?) (Microcystis?) bilirata, Nev. Hand-list, 
p. 41 (South India, ex coll. Dr. F. Stoliczka). 
This species I have not found in Mr. W. T. Blanford’s collection, 
so am unable to give a figure of it. 
Original description :—‘ Testa perforata, globosa, turbinata, soli- 
diuscula, cornea, transverse striata ; spira conoidea, apice obtusulo ; 
anfr. 7, angusti, sensim acerescentes ; superiores carina una supra 
mediana muniti, ultimus ad peripheriam acute brcarinatus, subtus 
tumidus ; apertura subverticalis, angulato-lunaris, perist. rectum, 
marginibus distantibus, columellari brevi, verticali, reflexo.

“This species apparently approaches the Ceylonese H. mono- 
nema, B., in character, but differs in its rounded base and less 
elevated spire.” 
Srrata ? verTiana, W. T. & H.F. Bif. (Plate IX. figs. 9, 9 a.)

Maerochlamys tertiana (sec. D), Theob. Cat. Suppl. p. 19. 
Original description :—“ Testa perforata, depresse turbinata, tenuis, 
pallide cornea, striatula, spira conoidea, apice obtuso, sutura wm- 
pressa; anfr. 6, angusti, convexi, ultimus haud descendens, subtus 
rotundatus ; apertura subverticalis, rotundato-lunaris ; peristoma 
simplex, marginibus distantibus, columellari reflexiusculo. 
“ Diam. major 2°25 mm., alt. 1°75 mm. 
53 O-Isanos, “,; 70°07 une: 
“Hab. raro ad Pykara, necnon ad Neddiwuttom in montibus 
Nilgiris.” 
Specimen figured diam. major 2°5 mm., alt. 1:3 mm. 
Messrs. Blanford add: “ H. bullula, Hutt., and H. humilis, Hutt., 
of the Western Himalaya, together with some small Cingalese Helices, 
appear to belong to the same group.” 
It occurred at the edges of sholas, in company with Jerdonia 
trochlea, B., Diplommatina nilgirica, Blfi., and Cyathopoma mala- 
baricum, Blf. 
I do not think H. bullula is allied to this species, for there is no 
sign of spiral striation on that shell ; and H. humilis is, I suspect, a 
species of the subgenus Patula.
