afterwards altered his opinion regarding it, for the label ( fastigiata) 
is covered with another (barrakporensis); but, although close, it is 
certainly not that species; and in the same paper (Contributions to 
Indian Malacology, No. I. p. 358) H. barrakporensis is referred to, 
and a figure is given on plate ii. fig. 5 of a specimen received from 
Mr. R. Bruce Foote, who found it on the Kalryenmullay group of 
hills near Salem. I have given a copy of this figure (Plate I. fig. 4), 
and which appears to be this species. But the shell is not in 
Mr. Blanford’s collection, which he has, during his absence in India, 
so kindly left with me to refer to and take care of. H. fastigiata, 
Hutton, of the N.W. Himalaya, does not occur in South India; and 
Mr. Foote’s specimen of barrakporensis may present, on a closer 
examination, some slight difference from the type form. The drawing 
shows it to have very flat sides to the spire, with a very acuminate 
apex.

Type from near Pykara, rare. 
Conch. Indica, pl. xvi. fig. 4 is not in the least like; it gives the 
idea of a thickened peristome.
