JIab. Port Elizabeth [Crawford). 



Four specimens of an interesting small species, which, 

 while possessing no specially marked characteristics, we find 

 ourselves unable to match with any yet described. It is 

 small, short, cylindriform, with extremely obtuse apex, thin, 

 six-whorlcd, impressed at the sutures; upper whorls some- 

 what tumid, while the lower are straight, all longitudinally 

 rudely striate; peristome thickened, white, furnished with the 

 following ])laits or teeth : — a thin scimitar-shaped parietal 

 plait, a large acute labial tooth, the batal being also acute 

 but smaller, while the internal columellar process is nipple- 

 shaped, deep-seated. 



We have much pleasure in associating with this little 

 species the name of Air. J. Crawford, from whom we have 

 received so much interesting material.
