486 DR.J.C. COX ON NEW AUSTRALIAN LAND SHELLS. [Nov. 8, 
tips sawn off, presented by B. H. Hodgson, Esq., to the ‘ India 
Museum ”’ now at Fyfe House, appears to me to be that of a Goat, 
and not of a Sheep. A similar skull, with the horns conjoined for 
the same distance, but with divergent tips, is in the British Museum ; 
and there is a frontlet, with horns quite similar to the last, in that 
of the Royal Society of Dublin. In the Zoological Gardens, Regent’s 
Park, there is now living a long-haired Sikhim or Tibetan Goat, in 
which the horns are-parallel and nearly approximate, but without 
meeting ; and I have little or no doubt that it is of the same race of 
domestic Goat which occasionally bears the so-called ‘ Unicorn ”’ 
appendage. 
9. Descriprions or Two New Species oF AUSTRALIAN LAND 
SHELLS. By James C. Cox, M.D., F.R.C.S. Ep1nspureGH. 
SUCCINEA EUCALYPTI*. 
S. testa globoso-conica, ventricoso-inflata, anfractibus tribus sub- 
intense brunnea, rugosa, minute striata, apice rosea ; apertura 
ovato-rotundata. 
Diam. maj. 43, min. 4 mill. 
This shell, a specimen of which I send, I have named eucalypt, 
from the fact of its being always found under the bark of the Euca- 
lyptus-trees, about 4 feet from the ground, on high dry hills near the 
Blue Mountains. When fresh, the rose-coloured apex is very well 
marked. 
HeLix MACLEAYI. ‘ 
H. testa imperforata, globoso-depressa, solidiuscula ; epidermide 
cinereo-fusca, minute striata, apice violacea ; fascia nigra cin- 
gulata ; spira obtusa ; sutura impressa, alba; anfractibus sez, 
convexiusculis; apertura lunato-subcirculart, marginibus ex- 
pansis, undique intense purpureo-violacea. 
Hab. Port Denison, Queensland. 
* The type specimens of this species have been deposited in the British Museum.
