Habitat ad BaduUa, Ceylon. Teste F. Layard. 



The fully grown shell was taken at Badulla, on Love-apple 

 leaves ; and a depressed form, which appears to me to be the 

 young, on those of Coffee-plants. A small specimen of a variety 

 occurred at Fort M'Donald. The species comes very near H. 

 Infula, B., which inhabits the leaves of shrubs in Bengal and 

 Bahar ; but the subremote spiral lines, elevated on the upper 

 and sharply impressed on the lower side in that species, are re- 

 placed on both sides, in the shell now described, by minute and 

 closely-set undulate striae. 



Helix Barrakporensis, Pfr., a shell which occurs in the Lower 

 Himalaya, from Dehra Dhoon to Sikkim, and which the iMessrs. 

 Blanford, in a contribution to the Journal of the Asiatic Society 

 of Calcutta, No. 283, for 1861, notice as found by Mr. R. Bruce 

 Foote in the Kalryen Hills, near Salem, in Southern India, was 

 obtained by Mr. F. Layard at Kandookerre, in Lower Ourah, 

 Ceylon — a distribution equal in extent to that of Helix Hut- 

 toni, Pfr. 



Mr. W. T. Blanford, in page 86 of the ' Annals ' for February 

 1 863, under the heading " Ganesella,^' includes Helix Capitium, 

 Bens., from the Rajmahal Hills, and H. variola, Bens., from 

 Thayet Mio and Pegu, adding that the distinctness of the two 

 species appears very dubious. On reference to the colouring 

 of the two forms it is evident that " variola " is a misprint for 

 " Hariola" A comparison of the wide and depressed form of 

 H. Hariola, as figured in Pfeiffer's 'Novitates Conchologicse,' 

 pi. 36. f. 21, 22, with a perfect example of the high conical form 

 of H. Capitium, or with the well-drawn figures in Kiistei-^s edi- 

 tion of Chemnitz, pi. 125. f. 3, 4, will at once satisfy the inquirer 

 that the two species are perfectly distinct. I feel assured that 

 Mr. W. T. Blanford has not examined a fully-grown example of 

 the Sicrigully shell discovered by Capt. Boys in the low ground 

 intervening between that detached hill and the main range of 

 the Rajmahal Hills.
