COCHLOSTYLA -COR ASIA. 123 



Var. 3. (PI. 25, fig. 54). Like the last, but the peripheral angle 

 brown. Hidalgo considers C. broderipi var. fasciata Moll, the same 

 as this variety. It is from the western coast of Zebu. 



Var. 4. (PI. 25, fig. 53). Shell tawny or chestnut, peripheral 

 angle more obtuse, dark banded. 



C. EYDOUXI Hidalgo. PI. 26, figs. 8, 9. 



Imperforate, depressed-globose, thin ; white with a faint greenish 

 tint, and slightly diaphanous ; above the suture there is a narrow red- 

 dish-brown band, obsolete on the last half- whorl. Surface smooth, 

 shining, obliquely striatulate. Generally no spiral striae are visible, 

 even on the inner whorls. Spire low, convex, apex plane ; whorls 4, 

 the last very obtusely subangular at the periphery, not descending 

 in front. Aperture oblique, wide ; lip white, narrowly expanded ; 

 columella flattened, adnate. 



Alt. 21, greater diam. 31, lesser 36 mill. 



Capul, Philippines.

Distinguished by the narrow brown margin above the suture of 

 the whorls of the spire, the entire shell otherwise being white. 



The true H. valenciennii of Eydoux is no doubt a cromyodes 

 deprived of epidermis, as Hidalgo states. 



C. BRODERIPI Pfeiffer. PL 24, figs. 27, 28, 32, 33. 



Imperforate, depressed-globose, more or less obviously angular at 

 the periphery, thin, very finely striated, subtranslucent, somewhat 

 shining, whitish. Spire little raised, with the apex flat or often a 

 trifle impressed. Whorls 4, flattened, rapidly widening, the last 

 not descending in front, rather swollen beneath. Aperture oblique, 

 broadly lunar ; columella very little curved, slightly sloping, some- 

 what excavated, deeply inserted above ; peristome simple, narrowly 

 expanded, a little thickened toward the columella, and reflexed. 



Alt. 20, greater diam. 29, lesser 24 mill.
