174 Mr. E, A. Smith on new 



It is mucli of the same cliaracter as tliat of Tanganyicia 

 rvfifilosa^ Smith, but is still more like a miniature of Para- 

 melania ])amoni, Smith. 



Syrnolopsi's carinifera. 



Testa elonf^ata, cylinclracea, superue acuminata, subpolUicido-alba, 

 impcrforata; aiifractus 9, primi tres la)vcs, convexi, caiteri 

 parinis validis duabus (una infra, altera supra suturam) instructi, 

 inter carinas plani, fere la3ves, ultiinus circa medium bicariuatus ; 

 apertura irrcgularitcr subauriformis, longit. totius \ suba3(]uans • 

 peristoma continuum, margine cxteruo late sod baud profunde 

 sinuato, inferno producto, margine infra columcUam (juoiiuc late 

 sinuate, marg. columellari incrassato, in medio plica valida iu- 

 structo. 



Longit. 7, diam. 2 niillim. 



Vcu: Testa minor, carinis in anfractibus inferioribus plus minus 

 obsoletis. 



This species also has two palatal lira), like 8. lamsiris, the 

 typical species of the genus ; but they are invisible unless the 

 labrum is broken away for some distance. The texture and 

 carina? recall the genus Pyrgula, but the columellar fold &c. 

 distinguish it. There is considerable difference between 

 extreme forms of this species both in size and in the strength 

 of the carinations. The smallest examples are not much more 

 than half as long and broad as the largest, although they 

 consist of as many whorls. 



Reymondta minor. 



Testa impcrforata, ovata, superue acuminata, nitida, subpellucido- 

 alba, zona lata ]iallide fuscescente infra suturam opaco-albo mar- 

 ginatam cincta ; anfraetus 7 sensim accrescentes, la^vos, leviter 

 convexi, ultimus in medio obtuse subangulatus, antico leviter 

 ascendens ; apertura ovata, superue leviter acuminata, longit. 

 totius f ada;quans ; perist. continuum, incrassatum, margine ex- 

 terno le^•issime expanse, columellari callo albo instructo. 



Longit. 6^, diam. 3 millim. ; apertura 2^ longa, li lata. 



The general tone of this ,species is a very pale brown. On 

 close inspection, however, the colour is not uniform throughout 

 the shell. A very narrow, opaque white line revolves up 

 the spire beneath the suture ; below this there is a broad but 

 indistinctly defined light- brownish zone, and on the body- 

 whorl a second is feebly observable around the base, the 

 interval between the two zones being seraitransparent white. 



Under a very_ strong power excessively fine spiral strise 

 are discoverable in well-preserved specimens.
