 parvo, plica columellari dentiformi, valde intraute. 

 Long. 3"50, lat. 1 mm. 



Hah. "S.Africa" {Farquhar). 



Nearly allied to E. cimolia and E. Margarettce, M. & P.* 

 From the lirst-named it differs in its slightly smaller size and 

 in the whorls being partially longitudinally striate, E. cimolia 

 being completely smooth ; the mouth-processes are likewise 

 diiFerent, that species possessing only three teeth or plaits, 

 whilst E. caryatis has a basal tooth as well. From E. Mar- 

 gareftce it differs chiefly in the comparatively slight sinuosity 

 of the outer lip, whilst the whorls in the last-named species 

 are completely covered with fine longitudinal oblique stride. 



This pretty little Ennea was kindly presented to us for 

 description by Mr. T. Rogers, of Manchester.

 obliqui-striatis, striis rudibus, crassiusculis ; apertura trigonali ;

Hab. Natal. 



A very distinct form, stout, tun-shaped, with obtuse apex, 

 coarsely obliquely striate ; mouth triangular, almost closed 

 by the contiguous plaits and teeth. These are four in num- 

 ber : the parietal plait is conspicuous, the labial tooth-shaped, 

 both, with the basal and columellar, are deep-seated and 

 produced far down the throat, whilst five or six teeth are 

 deep-seated at the base of the last whorl.
