[Plate VI.] 



Amphidromus floresianuSf sp. n. (PL VI. fig. 2.) 



Shell sinistral, solid, imperforate, oblong-conic; whorls 7, 

 moderately convex, apex dark brown, second and third whorls 

 flesh-coloured, remainder whitish above to yellow below, orna- 

 mented on middle whorls by twospiral rows of irregular squarish 

 brown spots, lower whorls either plain yellow or with from 

 one to ten brown spiral lines, which are sometimes continuous, 

 sometimes interrupted; lip and lower part of columella almost 

 black, polished, and connected by a rather thick, reddish, 

 transparent callus ; lip moderately expanded and reflected, 

 columella almost straight, having rather an angular appear- 

 ance at lower part, where it joins the lip. 



Long. 44 millim., maj. diam. 20. 



Type in British Museum. 



Loc. South Flores {Everett). 



Like nearly all other species of Amphidromus this varies 

 somewhat in form and much in coloration ; some specimens 

 are broader and shorter than the type and others more elon- 

 gated. In one or two specimens collected by Mr. Everett the 

 last whorl is almost covered by oblique stripes of a reddish- 

 brown colour. The most prominent distinguishing feature 

 of this species is its black lip, which appears to be constant. 



Amphidromiis consohrinuSy sp. n. (PI. VI. fig. 3.) 



Shell sinistral, oblong-conic, slightly perforate; whorls 6, 

 convex, yellow below fading to dirty white above, first three
