The resemblance in form and the faint raised line around 

 the body-whorl recall to mind the typical form of Subulina 

 subcarinifera. That species is imperforate, much more 

 coarsely sculptured, and has a more distinctly truncate colu- 

 mella. The apex in both forms is similarly introverted. 



Bidimus [Buliminus) suholivaceus.

Hah. Bauri Island, Zanzibar {Taylor). 



Five specimens of tliis species were presented to the 

 British Museum by J. S. Gibbons, Esq., in 1876. The name 

 olivaceus being preoccupied by Pfeiffer for a species from 

 Candia, I propose to designate the present species B. sub- 

 olivaceuSj the colour being decidedly pale olive. 



Bulimus [Hapalus) subvirescens. (PI. V. fig. 12.) 



Testa imperforata, elongata, tenuis, nitida, subpellucida, dilute 

 virescens ; anfract. 7, leviter convexi, striis incrementi curvatis 

 sculpti ; spira ad apicem obtusa : sutura leviter obliqua, dis- 

 tincta; apertura inverse subauriformis, longit. totius y^^ ad- 

 ajquans ; labrum tenuissimum, in medio prominens, curvatum ; 

 columella subtortuosa, albida, leviter et tenuiter rellexa, callo 

 tenui labro juncta. 



Longit. 14 miUim., diam, 5^ ; apertura 5 longa, 2| lata.

This is a more slender species than Hapalus Grateloupi, 

 Pfr., the type of the group, has a somewhat shorter body- 

 whorl, and a less distinct spiral curve on the columella. In 

 one of the specimens there are about half a dozen roundish 

 eggs, which are seen through the transparency of the shell, as 

 in many species of Stenogyra. 



Bulimus [Hapalus) disparilis. (PI. V. fig. 13.) 



Testa perforata, ovata, superuo paido acuminata, albida, vol cerea, 

 nitida ; anfract. 6, couvexiusculi, sutura leviter obliqua sejuucti, 

 longitudinalitcr argute striati, striis curvatis, inferne plus minus 

 desincntibus, ultimus magnus, subvcutricosus ; apex subobtusus ; 

 apertura elongata, inverse auriformis, longit. totius h superans ; 

 labrum tenue, in medio prominens, curvatum, propc suturam 

 quasi iucisum vel sinuatum ; columella leviter obliqua, expansa 

 et reflexa, vix contorta.
