The white stripes passing over the sutural bands give them a tes- 

 sellated appearance, but these lightning-like stripes are much more 

 widened where they pass over the transverse band of the body-whorl, 

 which is seen through the shell on looking at the aperture. A red- 

 dish brown stripe borders the columella.

 1'his mountain-variety, which is longer in pro])ortion, is dashingly 

 marked : in the intervals between the zigzag stripes an ashy pellicle 

 covers the ground-colour. A reddish stripe borders the columella.

A purplish red stripe borders the columella of this curious variety, 

 and the bands of the body- whorl may be seen faintly through the 

 shell on looking into the aperture. 



This beautiful and greatly varj-ing species ranges from about 2 

 inches in length and 1^ in breadth, to very nearly 2^ by 1^ inches. 



They were all found by Mr. Cuming on the leaves of trees, and 

 he informs me that they laj^ soft eggs. Variety a was most abun- 

 dant, and the mountain- varieties i and k are the longest and largest.

This beautiful variety will remind the observer of the colouring of 

 Achatina Zebra.

Both varieties were found by Mr. Cuming at Dingle, in the pro-

The length ranges from about 2^ by 1^ inch to 2|^ inches in 

 length, and 1 in breadth.
