black, and the spire of a darker tint, becoming purplish 

 towards the apex, with a black infrasutural line and traces of 

 a whitish periostracum forming oblique streaks in the direc- 

 tion of the lines of growth, more or less interrupted by fine 

 spiral lines. This epidermal ornamentation is referred to by 

 Kobek. 



Other specimens (var. concolor^ nov.) are of a uniform 

 whitish colour beneath the pale greenish-yellow or ochraceous 

 periostracum, and the peristome is margined with pinkish 

 purple-brown or purple-black. All specimens appear to have 

 a white tooth-like prominence or thickening on the columella.
