56 ZONITID^E. 



Major diam. 14, min. 12, axis 9 min. 



Hob. Near Bombay. 



I have specimens from Poona, from one of which I extracted 

 the radula, but could not count the lateral teeth, which were 

 broken up. The admedian formula was + 2. 12. 1.12. 2 + 

 (or +14 . 1 . 14 +). Jaw moderately arched, with a central 

 projection.] 



Nevill records this species from Madras ( W. T. B.) and Pooree 

 (Raban).

[Shell narrowly perforate, depressedly turbinate, very thin, 

 transparent, pale horny, above slightly shiny, beautifully decussate 

 with wavy striation, below polished, radiately striate ; spire 

 slightly elevated, slowly increasing, apex obtuse, dark; suture 

 impressed ; whorls 5, subconvex. tipper surface with a narrow 

 dark red band, at last obsolete on the margin, the last subcarinate, 

 beneath convex ; aperture subvertical, subquadrately lunate ; peri- 

 stome acute, columellar margin vertical, rounded on the basal 

 margin, above very shortly reflected. (Taken from Benson's 

 description.) 



Major, diam. 14, miu. 13, axis 7 mm. 



Hab. Rare in the Rohilla Country near the town of Moradabad 

 (on bank of Gungun River), Northern India (Dr. J. F. Bacon). 



Mr. F. A. Potts, the Assistant Superintendent, University 

 Museum of Zoology, Cambridge, replying to my letter regarding 

 this species, says: " We have the type of Helix baconi, Bs. ; it 

 shows a narrow fuscous band between the whorls." 



Nevill records this species from Benares and Calcutta ; there is 

 considerable doubt as to the accuracy of the identification, and 

 until the anatomy of the animal is examined the generic position 

 is equally doubtful.] 



82. Euplecta acalles, Pfr. (Helix) P. Z. S. 1856, p. 327 ; id. (Helix) 



Mon. HeL iv, 1859, p. 34 ; H. $ T. (Helix) C. I. 1876, pi. 128, 

 figs. 1, 4. 



Very similar to E. layardi, but lower in spire, being more 

 depressedly turbinate and more sharply carinate. A thin whitish 

 horny shell, finely decussated above. 



Major diam. 13, min. 11, axis 7^ mm. 



Hab. Nilgiris (Conway Shiplay). This shell does not appear to 

 have been obtained by later observers. 



83. Euplecta pulchella, Elf. P. Z. S. 1904, ii, p. 447, pi, 25, fig. 18. 



Shell subobtectly perforate, conoidly depressed, sublenticular, 

 rather solid, amber-coloured, decussately striated above and below, 

 ornamented above by minute, oblique, granular, flexuous ridges,
