160 Mr. A. Adams on new Species of Mollusca. 
7. Sao folliculus, A, Adams. 
S. testa obovata, umbilicata, solidula, basi dilatata, gibbosa, leevi, 
postice transversim striata, apice profunde perforato; apertura 
antice dilatata, postice angusta; labio incrassato; labro postice 
valde producto et acuminate angulato. 
Hab. Tabu-Sima; 25 fathoms. 
The only species resembling this is S. pyriformis, A. Adams, 
from the China Sea; but that species is much more ventricose, 
and more attenuated posteriorly. 
8. Sao phiala, A. Adams. 
S. testa cylindrico-pyramidali, antice attenuata, infra periomphalum 
subconstricta, rimata, utrinque transversim striata; vertice pro~ 
funde perforato; apertura lineari, postice coarctata, antice dila- 
tata; labio recto, elongato, simplici; lJabro postice valde pro- 
ducto. 
Hab. Mino-Sima ; 63 fathoms. 
The peculiar contraction at the anterior part of the body- 
whorl just below the apex, the produced angle of the outer lip, 
and the straight simple mner lip are the chief peculiarities of 
this species. 
9. Sao elliptica, A. Adams. 
S. testa parvula, alba, tenui, elongato-ovata, antice subdilatata, lon- 
gitudinaliter strigosa, utrinque transversim striata; apertura li- 
neari, antice dilatata; labio recto, in medio calloso; labro margine 
arcuato, postice producto, rotundato. 
Hab. Tsu-Sima; 16 fathoms. 
A small, white, longitudinally strigose, ovate species, differing 
in form and appearance from any other of the group. 
Genus Puiitne, Ascanius. 
1, Philine scalpta, A. Adams. 
P. testa oblongo-ovata, alba, tenui, semipellucida, longitudinaliter 
subplicata, plicis irregularibus, lineis transversis exaratis undulatis 
distantibus insculpta; apertura ampla; margine columellari tenui, 
acuto; labro regulariter arcuato, postice rotundato. 
Hab. Tsu-Sima; 30 fathoms: Korea Strait; 46 fathoms. 
Bulla exarata, Ph., or Haminea sinensis, A. Adams, is the only 
species resembling this in sculpture; but the form is very dif- 
ferent : the body-whorl in that species is large, and the outer Jip 
narrowed posteriorly and greatly produced. 
2. Piiline crenata, A. Adams. 
P. testa ovata, alba, solidiuscula, postice subangulata, transversim
