 ^a6.— Auckland Islands (Le Guillou). 



The specific name zebra has no doubt priority, but, as no figure of the shell was 

 given, I select PfeifFer's pMogophora, as being the next in chronological order, and 

 which was figured by Reeve. Moreover, I have not seen Le Guillou's species from 

 the Auckland Islands, which is narrowly umbilicated, and may be distinct from 

 F. pMogophora. 



Genus Ranfurlya, Suter, 1903. 

 Distribution. — Auckland Islands only. 



Ranfurlya constanceae, Suter, 1903. 



Ranfurlya constanceae, Suter, Journ. Malac, x, 1903, p. 62, pi. iv, figs, 1-5. 



Animal limaciform, black, very small, with subcentral visceral hump, the greater 

 part of the viscera protected by an auriform shell, which in turn is partly covered 

 by the mantle. 



Length, 6 mm. 



Two specimens, slightly larger than the type, were found by Professor Benham, 

 one at 1,350 ft. altitude, the second occasion on which this apparently rare mollusc 

 has been recorded. 



Hab. — Auckland Islands (Professor Benham).

Endodonta (Charopa) benhami, n. sp. (Plate I, figs. 12-14.) 



Shell very small, subdiscoidal, umbilicated, finely ribbed, thin and fragile. Sculp- 

 ture consisting of very fine slightly flexuous radial riblets, about 30 per millimeter, 

 the interstices microscopically reticulated by fine growth and spiral striae. Colour 

 uniformly light chestnut-brown. Epidermis thin, not shining. Spire fiat, but little 

 elevated above the last volution. Protoconch of 1^ smooth and convex whorls. 

 Whorls very narrowly wound up, regularly increasing, moderately convex, periphery 

 of last whorl and base rounded. Suture very deep. Aperture somewhat oblique, 

 semilunar. Peristome regularly rounded, simple, sharp and thin. Columella very 

 short, vertical and concave, not callous, and not reflexed. Umbilicus broad, about 

 a third of the diameter, deep, and perspective.
