specimens similarly labelled in Major Peile's possession, it appears 

 probable that shells have been distributed under this name, and 

 therefore may be found in many other collections.

Original description : " Gr. testa oblongo-turrita, solidiuscula, 

 Isevigata, obscure striata, nitida, fusco-cornea ; spira turrita, apice 

 obtusiusculo, sutura impressa, crenulata ; anfr. 7, convexiusculis, 

 ultimus testae paulo superaute ; apertura parum obliqua, ovale ; 

 columella callosa, valde arcuata, oblique truncata ; perist. recto, 

 obtuso, albido marginato, marginibus callo tenui junctis. 



" Long. 8|, diam. 4 mill." (Adams.} 



Hob. India: Sattara, Bombay Pres. (Layard). Ceylon: Saha- 

 rurnpore (Hanley & Theobald}-, Ram baddy Ghats (Beddome); 

 Nuwara Eliya (Simon). 



Beddome gives Glessula fusca, H. Adams, as a synonym of 

 G. parabilis, Bens. (Proc. Malac. Soc. London, vii, p. 204), evi- 

 dently owing to a lapsus for G. fusca , Pfeiffer, as on page 170 

 (torn, cit.) he correctly enumerates the former under the synonymy 

 of G. sattaraensis. G. fusca of Pfeiffer was believed by Hanley and 

 Theobald to be near if not identical with G. parabilis. 



The only specimen of G. sattaraensis I have seen is in the 

 British Museum and is from the collection of H. Adams. It 

 agrees in every respect with the description and with the figure 

 in Conch. Ind.
