The nearest ally of this very distinct and well-marked pretty 

 little species is the jNladeiran //. lentiginosa. The numerous 

 fine thread-like or lamellar spiral strise resemble those of the 

 common sylvan Tenerifan H. circumsessa, Shuttl., which is^ how- 

 ever, as distinct in habit as in habitat, belonging to the group 

 Lucilla.

Approaches nearest to H. granostriata, Mouss., in Hartung's 

 ' Geolog. Verhaltn. Lanzar, inid Fuertev. ;' but it is perfectly 

 distinct in the want of granulated strise, in the rather deeply 

 hollow impressed suture, more convex volutions, and simply 

 sharp not limbate keel. From H. Argonautula, Webb, and H. 

 setubalensis, Morelet, it is constantly distinguishable by its 

 raised (not flat tabellate) spii-e, its small narrow umbilicus, sim- 

 ple keel, and fine close-set even (not somewhat coarse, irregular 

 and flexuose) stride.
