this species from C. basilisfia, Schm. and Ett2;r., "which it otherwise 

 resembles as regards size and form of the lamellae. Like C. hasilissa, 

 our species belongs to the group of C. Franciscana, Molldff., as does 

 also C. TJtihetiana, Dcsh., which is, however, much smaller.

The type of this species came from Patung, province Hiipeh ; we 

 have it from the same place (native collector, Yankowsky), and two 

 specimens from Changyang (Schmacker's Japanese collector) and 

 Kaochahien (province Hupoh).

Testa sat magna, distincte rimata, fusiformi-clavata, solidula, 

 eastanea, opaca; spira turrita latcribus vix convexiusculis ; apex 

 obtusus. Anfr. 10 convexiusculi, sutura bene impressa lineari, 

 tenuiter albomarginata disjuncti, vix striatuli, fere loDves, penultimus 

 latere, ultimus dorso magis planati, ultimus ad rimam angulatiis, 

 deorsum non angustatus, basi planato-rotundatus, hand validius 

 striatus quam penultimus. Apcrtura subobliqua, rhomboidea, et 

 superne et inferne angulata, basi non recedons, faucibus castaneis, 

 sinulo lato subquadrato ; peristoma continuum, adnatum, parura 

 expansum sed undique rcflexiusculum, albidum. Lamella superior 

 marginalis valida, compressa, parum obliqua, cum spirali multo humi- 

 liore conj uncta ; inferior fere nulla, a superiore remotissima, ad basin 

 solum interlamellaris lati excavati tuberculi instar ascendentis, remoti 

 conspicua ; subcolumellaris inconspicua. Plica principalis profunda 

 modica (5+ mm. longa), intus lineam lateralem valde transgrediens ; 

 loco lunella3 strictae evanidaj lamellae 6 breves parallelae ventii- 

 laterales, prima et sexta longioribus. Alt. 27*5 mm. ; diam. max. 

 6". 5 mm. ; alt. apert. 7, hit. apert. 5 mm. 



A single specimen was found by the Rev. Dr. Faber, on his trip to 

 Sytshouan. Mount Omi is given as the locality, with a query, 

 however. 



This species, which in many respects recalls our Greek C. GuicciariU, 

 Roth, is notable owing to the last whorl being flattened at the site of 

 the clausilium, and on account of the wide, excavated inteiiamellar 

 space. Of the lamella inferior nothing is to be seen except an 

 ascending nodule at the base of the inteiiamellar space, at the place 

 where the subcolumellar lamella usually is. The palatal plaits are 

 visible in their whole length from the front of the shell. The species 

 stands next to C. gastroptychia, Molldif., from which, however, it is 

 easily distinguished. It is of clumsier shape, has a larger, kite-shaped 

 aperture, the dextral peristome is " adnatus," the lamella inferior is 

 more rudimentary, and is further from the lamella superior, and 

 the lamella subcolumellaris is invisible.

Hah. — Tenlingshan (?). Brought back by Mr. Bock's collector 

 in 1891. It is quite possible that the locality is M611cndorft''s 

 Tshien-ti-shan (province Kueichow). Alt. 20-263 mm. ; diam. max. 

 4'6-5"25 mm.
