perhaps, both having the remarkable deep-seated postlabial 

 tooth, this species is smaller, smoother, paler, and less 

 cylindrical, is only rimate instead of umbilicate, has the 

 peristome less deflexed, and is destitute of the postcolumellar 

 and parietal plaits. It would appear that intradentata and 

 dysorata have the same general appearance ; indeed, I suppose 

 tiiat it must be considered a toothed variety of it, and that 

 the typical specimen of dysorata neglected to develop the 

 tooth'." {H. C. B.)

We would add to our original description that the outer 

 lip, as well as the columellar margin, is somewhat thickened 

 within. We refigure from one of Mr. Burnup's drawings.

Mr. Burnup writes to us in reference to this : — " Good 

 species ; very near to P. dadion, Bens., but distinguishable. I 

 think that dadion, occurring so near to farquharPs habitat, as 

 well as at the extremes, Simon's Bay, and Umvoti Oo., Natal, 

 without the slightest variation, tends to support its distinct- 

 ness as an inhabitant of the intermediate locality, Cradock."

Since we first undertook the description of South-African 

 Mollusca, nearly twenty years ago, an immense quantity of 

 this species has been gathered by several collectors, from 

 widely different localities, showing extraordinary range of 

 variation. Under fontana, indeed, we must now place the 

 following : —
