Bulimus MOROSUS, Gld.

The metropolis of this species, is the large island of Vanna 

 Levu, where it is very abundant on the trunks and foliage of 

 trees. It ranges the whole length of the island, and occurs 

 sparingly at the neighboring islands of Rarabi, Tavinni, Koro, 

 Kioa and Gomea ; having in fact the widest range of any spe- 

 cies in the group. Having gathered examples at all the various 

 locations, I could not detect any difference between them and 

 those found at its metropolis. About one example in a hundred 

 exhibits the zigzag markings, a character unknown to Dr. Gould 

 when he described the species. 



Bulimus elobatus, Gld. Plate 18, fig. 2. 



Exp. Shells, p. 72, fig. 84, 1851. 



This fine species is found abundantly on the ground, and is 

 confined to that part of Vanna Levu, laying to the northward 

 and westward of Natawa Bay, and ranges the whole length of 

 the island. The finest examples were procured in the interior. 

 A variety occurs of a light olive color, with a bluish white 

 aperture.

This is also a terrestrial species, and is abundant and peculiar 

 to the island of Kandavu, where it was discovered by Dr. See- 

 in an n. 



Bulimus sp. 



This, like the preceding species, lives on the ground, and is 

 confined to the interior of Viti Levu, where it was discovered 

 by Dr. Graffe, who sent the specimens to Prof. Mousson, of 

 Zurich. The Professor erroneously determined it to be the 

 elobatus, Gld. Having sent him examples of the latter species, 

 he will no doubt describe the former as new. 



It is about the same size as elobatus, but is much less rugose, 

 the base less produced, and is of a yellowish olive color with a 

 bluish white aperture.
