undique longitudinaliter crassi-striatis, qiiatuor ultimis rectis, 

 inter se similibus ; apertura rotuudo-lunari ; peristomate circulari, 

 plicis vel dentibus duobus solum mimito, plica parietali acuta, 

 aciuaciformi, valde intraute, dente labiali acuto, parvo, margiue 

 columellari infra paullum incrassato, simplici. 

 Long. 5, lat. 2 mm. 



Hab. " Cradock Comonage, S. Africa" (e coll. T. Rogers). 



In its mouth-processes this Ennea resembles E. Collier i, 

 M. & P., but not in form, texture, or any other particular. 

 It is also comparable with E. crassilahris^ Craven, which 

 species is very much larger in all its parts. 



Though small, it is an attractive and very beautiful species, 

 columnar, seven-whorled, the last four being uniform and 

 straight ; the peristome is circular, furnished with one parietal 

 plait, large and deep-seated, one labial tooth likewise, while 

 the columellar margin is to some extent callous and thickened 

 below. 



We have pleasure in connecting with this species the name 

 of Mr. Thomas Rogers, of Oldham Road, Manchester, from 

 whom we received it. We believe it was collected by 

 Mr. Farquhar. 



Ennea doTcimasia *, sp. n. (PI. VIII. fig. 7.) 



E. testa compacta, brevi, C3iindracea, apice obtusissimo, pallide 

 straminea, nitida ; anfractibus septem, apud suturas compressis, 

 undique longitudinaliter oblique striatis, striis comptis, arctis ; 

 apertura rotunda ; peristomate semilunari, extus incrassato, 

 stramineo, intus albescente, plicis v^el dentibus quinque munito, 

 plica parietali permagna, dentibus labialibus duobus, ordinariis, 

 dente basali parvo, plica columellari interna, magna, valde 

 intrante. 



Long. 5, lat. 2-50 mm. 



Hab. Natal. 



A remarkably short cylindraceous Ennea, with very obtuse 

 apex, straw-coloured, seven-whorled, longitudinally neatly 

 and closely striate ; the outer lip is roundly semilunar, 

 thickened, Avithout straw-coloured, within shining white, 

 furnished with five plaits or teeth ; of these the parietal plait 

 is extremely large and protruded, the two labial and the basal 

 teeth are normal, the columellar plait is very distinct, being 

 unusually developed, internal, and deep-seated. 



We have seen few, if any, species of this genus with so 

 conspicuous a parietal plait or possessing the same charac- 

 teristics as to the columellar process, which is not mammi-
