344 EAST INDIAN NESOPUP^E. 



subconvex, ornamented with frequent membranous riblets, the 

 last usually nearly smooth, somewhat compressed behind the 

 aperture, about two-thirds the total length of the shell. Aper- 

 ture rather large, subquadrate above. Peristome a little ex- 

 panded and somewhat reflected throughout, the margins sep- 

 arated. Apertural folds 4 or 5: angular minute, parietal 

 larger, somewhat sinuous, diverging from the angular; colu- 

 mellar moderate ; palatals 1 or 2, the upper one larger. 



Length 2, width 1.2 mm. (T. C.). 



Celebes: Macassar (Beccari).

41. NESOPUPA PROSCRIPTA (E. A. Smith). PL 31, fig. 1. 



Shell minute, oblong, cylindric, umbilicate, brownish-cor- 

 neous, striate with delicate lines of growth. Whorls 5, very 

 convex, separated by a deep, slightly oblique suture, the last 

 whorl slightly ascending, impressed behind the lip. Lip pale, 

 expanded, somewhat reflected, the outer margin slightly pro- 

 jecting inwardly in the middle. Aperture five-toothed: two 

 unequal parietal teeth, a minute columellar, and two sub- 

 equal, lamelliform palatals, distant from the edge of the lip. 



Length 2.25, diam. 0.9 mm. (Smith).

This species is much more slender than N. selebensis, which 

 from the description seems to have similar teeth. There is a 

 similar form on Tenimber Is., I believe still undescribed, and 

 known to me by imperfect shells only. These species have 

 the angular lamella short. It is remote from, not running to 

 the upper termination of the outer lip, thereby differing from 

 N. malayana.
