 Long. 3-50, lat. 6 mm. (spec. maj.). 



Hab. Fish River, Cradock. 



The form is depressedly globular, umbilicate, thin, horny, 

 apparently smooth, but when examined with a lens beauti- 

 fully and very closely longitudinally striate. The upper 

 whorls are ventricose and deeply impressed at the sutures, 

 and almost in the same plane. The last whorl is very large ; 

 aperture lunate ; outer lip thin, shortly triangularly reflexed 

 over the narrow umbilicus at the columellar margin. 



Several examples, found in decaying wood ; hence the 

 specific name.

 dinally striate; the substance pellucid and white; aperture 

 roundly oval ; peristome thickened, white, with five plaits or 

 teeth, namely — a large extended parietal plait, an acute labial 

 tooth, two contiguous columellar teeth, and a flattened deep- 

 seated columellar plait.
