526 Mr. H. B. Preston on Mullusca from 



colours gently curved, nearly parallel with termen; veins 

 partly blackened, especially towards base. Underside of 

 fore wing with white blotch as above, in addition with a 

 white streak between C and SC from base to about one- 

 third and a small elongate white subapical blotch ; of hind 

 wing with the dark border reduced to a narrow median bar 

 and diffuse streaks from this to the termen on R 1 , R 3 , M 1 , 

 M 2 and from SM 2 to inner margin, the interspaces remaining 

 white ; the dark lines on SM 2 and at base of C and of M 

 thicker than above.

Shape and general aspect agree with such species as 

 charisea, Druce, &c. ; but SC 1 " 2 are stalked instead of anas- 

 tomosing, their stalk connected by an extremely short bar 

 with C, and in the hind wing the discocellulars are strongly 

 oblique and SC 2 is very short stalked with R 1 . In the 

 group mentioned, so far as I have tested it, the $ antenna 

 is very much more strongly bipectinate, SC 1 anastomoses 

 (often quite strongly) with C, and SC 2 arises separately — 

 either from cell or from base of stalk of SC 3-5 — anastomo- 

 sing with SC 1 ; but variation in some of these details will 

 almost certainly be found.

Gibbulina eatpatriata, sp. n. (Fig. 1.) 



Shell small, cylindrical, with very blunt apex, scarcely 

 rimate, whitish ; whorls 7, flat, sculptured with fine, closely 

 set, transverse, arcuate striae; sutures very lightly impressed, 

 slightly crenellate below by the terminations of the trans- 

 verse strise; columella rather broadly expanded, descending 

 nearly vertically, and extending into a broad, thick, white, 

 well-defined callus, which joins the lip above; labium white, 

 thickened, reflexed, somewhat sinuous above; aperture rect- 

 angular; interior of shell glossy, showing the transverse 

 sculpture through the shell.
