Original description : " Shell cylindrically elongated, broadly 

 umbilicated, whorls nine in number, fla.tly convex, smooth or con- 

 centrically striated, aperture small, lip and columella expanded, 

 but slightly reflected ; greyish white, here and there obliquely 

 marked with pellucid streaks." (Reeve.) 



Hob. India : near the head- waters of the Sinde (Benson} ; 

 Sub-Himalayan Range, left bank of Sutlej (Hutton); l)arjeeling 

 (Hanley <Sf Theobald)-, Jliilum Valley, Kashmir and Salt Range 

 (Theobald)-, Maudi (StoliczJca); Kussial Ghat, Punjab (Theobald). 

 Afghanistan: Khyber Pass (Barr) ; Cherat (Ancey). 



The present species and E. Icunawurensis are closely related, 

 but whereas the latter is sinistral, E. sindica is dextral and has 

 the last whorl proportionately much higher. The Theobald 

 collection contains shells from various localities, those from the 

 hills between the Sutlej and the Jumna being transversely streaked 

 with a rufous tint and constituting a connecting-link with E. nifi- 

 striyata, but the latter has a more convex spire and its aperture 

 is not so high; they measure 24x7*5 mm. Others from the 

 Salt Range vary in dimensions between 21 x 7*5 to 17 x 6-5 mm. 

 A shell from Kussial Ghat, Punjab, measures 19'5x 6 mm., while 

 two pure white Kashmir specimens attain a length of 32 mm. 

 with a diameter of 10 mm.
