b. Shell pale yellow brown ; apex white ; circumference of the 

 columella nearly black ; a pale bro-\vn band close behind the suture 

 of the first volutions. Found on leaves of trees near Manilla. 



c. Shell light brown, paler near the apex, which is reddish brown ; 

 circumference of the columella nearly black ; two narrow brown 

 bands, one of which is placed at the circumference of the shell, and 

 the other close to the suture in front. Found on leaves of trees 

 near Manilla. 



d. SheU light brown, with a dull hydrophanous epidermis, paler 

 toward the apex, which is dark mahogany brown ; circumference of 

 the columella nearly black ; two broad, very dark brown bands, one 

 of which is placed at the circumference of the shell, the other close 

 to the suture in front. Found on leaves of trees at San Mateo, in 

 the province of Tondo, isle of Lu^on. 



e. Shell brown, with a lighter coloured irregular hydrophanous 

 epidermis ; paler near the apex, which is dark brown ; circumference 

 of the columella very dark brown ; two brown bands nearly similar 

 to those in var. c. This is rather a coarse variety, and appears to 

 be a slight example of monstrous growth, its spire being rather un- 

 usually elevated, and the volutions consequently more prominent. 

 Found on leaves of trees near Dolores, province of Pamparaga, isle 

 of Lu^on.
