River Goomty ; Moisraka, Damuda, in tanks ; 

 Chittagong. 



Judging from Hutton's types, this is the Affghan 

 shell which he published, in English, as paludosum, 

 in the Asiatic Journal for 1849 (p. 659) ; but al- 

 though his description is prior, it is not only in 

 English, but too meagre to ensure identification. 



Prime has given the name solidulum to a supposed 

 P. parvulum of Benson from " India." Can it be this 

 sSpecies ?

The original tjqje, now in the British Museum, is 

 here delineated: it is, however, in poor condition. 



4. A. Beddomei, Blanford (see plate cii, f. 8). 



Our previous figure copied from an Indian painting 

 represented certain accidental white specks as essen- 

 tial : our present is taken from the type, which differs 

 little from A. inornata, except in its peaked apex. 



5. C. scalaris, Benson, An. Nat. H. 1 864, Feb. 

 Found dead in the sand of the river Betwa, and 

 the left bank of the Jumna, and the exuviaj of

This is the adult of the young shell we had 

 previously figured as a Helix.

Either through transposition for symmetry's sake 

 by the lithographer after the printing of the text, or 

 misled by remarks in the Asiatic Journal, the names 

 of Birmanica and Blanfordi were interchanged in 

 part 1 of the Conchologia Indica.
