Hob. Tibet : Chini, Kunawur ; banks of the Sutlej (Hutton). 

 India : Landour, W. Himalayas ( Theobald) . 



The species varies considerably in length. The type, according 

 to .Reeve's figure, measures 36 mm., the shell illustrated by 

 Hanley & Theobald being 31 mm. long, while a specimen from 

 Chini in the Theobald collection only reaches 27*5 mm. in length, 

 Math a diameter of 7*5 mm. Hutton's five specimens from 

 Kunawur, in the British Museum, range from 31 x 9 to 28 X 7 mm. 

 Two shells in the Cuming collection are fulvous-corneous, strongly 

 streaked transversely with greyish white. 



E. Tcunawurensis has the earlier whorls very finely spirally 

 striated, the spirals becoming obsolete on the later whorls. From 

 E. candelaris it may be separated by its more cylindrical shape 

 and the smaller aperture ; it also has the peristome less thick- 

 ened, with acute edges, and the outer margin is less curved. 



A small specimen from Kunawar, received by the British 

 Museum from Hutton, approaches E. sindica in form, but that 

 species is more tapering towards the apex.
