CHONDRIN^E OF THE PYRENEAN CENTER. 55 



whorl to the summit; 8 very convex whorls of slow, regular 

 increase, separated by a deep suture, the first whorls smooth, 

 summit quite obtuse; last whorl a little ascending above 

 towards the aperture, ornamented with 2 transverse lines v 

 not very long and not reaching the peristome, corresponding 

 to palatal folds. Aperture nearly vertical, suboval-truncate, 

 with 6 lamellif orm denticles : one angular, white, approaching 

 the outer lip at the beginning but diverging inwardly; one 

 apertural [parietal], white, immersed, quite near the end of 

 the angular lamella; two whitish columellars; two yellowish 

 palatals, immersed, feebly prolonged inwardly. Peristome 

 simple, narrow, curved towards the apertural angle, slightly 

 everted at the base and the columella, the margins approach- 

 ing, united by a weak callous. Length 4%, diam. 1%, aper- 

 ture 1 x % mm. (Bofitt).

Pupa pulchella BOFILL, Bull. Soc. Malac. France, iii, 1886, 

 p. 161. 



By its teeth this Pupa has some resemblance to our var. 

 sexplicata of P. penchinatiana (Bourg.), but it is readily dis- 

 tinguished by the conoidal form, by the regular taper of the 

 spire from the convexity of the last whorl to the summit, by 

 the very convex whorls, smaller size, slimmer form, and the 

 reddish color (Bofill). 



Possibly related to granum Drap. 



Var. manotiana 'Bgt./ West. Shell umbilicate, oblong- 

 conic, costulate-striate, brown; whorls T^, regularly increas- 

 ing, convex, separated by a rather deep suture, the last some- 

 what ascending in front. Aperture oval, an angular fold at 

 the insertion of the outer margin, and a parietal fold in the 

 middle, a columellar fold, and two palatal folds, all deeply 

 placed, white, short and high, a denticle on the columella 

 below ; peristome unexpanded, thin, the outer margin strongly 

 arcuate above and approaching the columellar margin. Length 

 6, diam. 2 mm. Spain. (Pupa [TorquUla] pulchella Bof.
