It is not phcBdimus. for the apical coils of tliat species are 

 dark brown, no white at all; leuccsjnra is, again, sjjottcd 

 with white over the branchial cavity. 



Animal is pale throughout, wo s-potthuf on the visceral 

 sac ; when first looked at the colouring of the animal recalls 

 that of Feltat^is //ondoensis ; but the contrast of the dark 

 brown liver and white upper surface of the apical coils and 

 the form of the shell-lobes at once distinguish this species 

 from the Pondoland one. The value of drawings over 

 description to show differences of this nature is illustrated 

 in this instance. The lobe over the mncous pore (tig. 2 b) 

 is moderately large. The right shell-lobe (tig. 2) is long 

 and broad, the left (fig. 2) elongate and triangular, on a 

 wide base of the mantle-edge. In the drawing it is shown 

 drooping over, not in its natural position, turned over the 

 edge of the peristome and lying on the surface of the shell. 



In the generative organs (PI. XX. fig. 1) the penis has a 

 long flagelkim, which towards the free end bifurcates into 

 two distinct branches. These are to be explained by a 

 reference to the figures of spei'matophores on pi. iii. fig. 1 b), 

 where the usually single wliip-like end has anotiier and a 

 finer one. Experience when dissecting has shown me this 

 is very easily broken off. 



The epiphallus is very long in this species, the sliort 

 accessory organ being given off nearer to the retractor 

 muscle than to the vas deferens. The spermatheca is on a 

 long stalk, and, being empty, was more elongately pear- 

 shiiped. 



The radula (PL XX. fig. 1 b) has the formida 



40.8.7.1.7.3. 40, or 5(5 . 1 . 5(5. 

 Jaw (T-*l. XX. fig. 1 u) \\\\\\ a central projection.
