LAMINELLA. 55 



nearly white, partly covered with narrow shreds of sepia 

 cuticle, which becomes blackish towards the end of the last 

 whorl; embryonic whorls with more or less flesh tint. Aper- 

 ture white within, but with a livid purple border, generally 

 broad, within the lip ; columella dark red. Length 23, diam. 

 12.5 mm. 



Oahu : Haleauau, Waianae Mountains. Cotypes in coll. 

 A. N. S. P. and Bishop Mus. 



This race was mentioned as a form of L. straminea in Vol. 

 XXI, at the foot of page 329. A specimen from Dr. Cooke's 

 no. 1778 from the Waianae range was figured on pi. 55, fig. 

 6, but, by some oversight, in the explanation of plates the 

 figure was said to be from a Nuuanu shell. 



L. SANGUINEA (Newc.). Vol. XXI, p. 330. 



The paragraphs at foot of page 332 and top of p. 333 be- 

 long to L. gravida and not to L. sanguined. Mr. Oleson's 

 note seems to have been misplaced in the MS., and the error 

 was overlooked in the proofs. 



Many years ago Mr. Joseph Emerson found L. sanguinea 

 on the south side of Anahulu river, in Kawailoa, but not on 

 the north side. This appears to be its western limit. 



Newcomb 's type figure of L. sanguinea is reproduced photo- 

 graphically on pi. 29, fig. 15 of Vol. XXII. 



Var. leucoderma. Ground color white with the faintest 

 suggestion of pink, under a very pale buff cuticle, marked 

 with black as usual. Interior white ; columella, parietal wall 

 and a lip-border more or less pink ; summit dark, as in typical 

 sanguinea. Size small. Length 17 mm., 5% whorls. 



Near the middle of the western ridge of Popouwela, 

 Waianae Mts., on ieie. Spalding, Pilsbry and Cooke. 



Occurs as a pure race, so far as we know. 



L. ALEXANDRI (Newc.). PL 1, figs. 10 to 16. 



Very large and handsome specimens have been collected on 

 Mt. Kukui, West Maui, by Mr. Thaanum. A series is figured. 

 In most of them the black lines are straight, but in a few they 

 net together (fig. 10), and rarely they almost disappear, only 

 some dots remaining (figs. 14, 15-16). The largest shells 

 measure 18 x 8.5 mm.
