Subgcnus OTOPLEURA, Fischer, 1885. 

 P. AURIS-CATI, Chemn. 'PL 73, fig. 95.

 the ribs spirally striated. Length, '75-1 inch. 



Philippines, Mauritius. 

 The synonyms are P. spiralis, Wood, P. plicata, Lam. 



P. NODICINCTA, A. Ad. PI. 73, fig. 100. 



White, with spiral rows of chestnut spots ; whorls angulated 

 above, with longitudinal ribs produced into nodules at the angles ; 

 lower part of body-whorl pitted, forming a sort of network be- 

 tween the pits. Length, *75-l inch. Philippines. 



I think this will prove to be a variety of the foregoing species.

Whitish, clouded and indistinctly banded with pale brown; 



whorls rather convex, longitudinally ribbed, slightly angulated

P. PROPINQUA, A. Ad. (fig. 97). P. VARIEGATA, A. Ad. (fig. 3), 

 and P. MAGNIFICA, Ads. and Reeve (fig. 2), appear to be syno- 

 nyms.

Possibly only a variety of the foregoing species.
