"Eight specimens from the Benson collection in Cambridge 

 sent to me for inspection by Dr. L. Doncaster agree with the 

 figure of the species in Conch. Ind., but the columellar margin 

 is more obliquely ascending than is shown in the figure. They 

 vary in length between 3 and 3.5 mm. The shell somewhat 

 resembles a large P. seriola" (Gude). 



Godwin- Austen remarks that "the typical specimens were 

 found in the exuviae of the River Gogra at Tribeni Ghat. 

 This river rises in the Tibetan plateau, and these shells may 

 have been brought down thus from far back in the mountain 

 range. ' '

 liquely striatulate, silky, yellowish corneous. Spire oblong,
