spirally banded with chestnut bands varying in width; spire raised, 
whorls 6 to 64, moderately convex, last descending a little in front ; 
aperture lunate, margins rather distant ; peristome reflected, purplish 
brown; columellar margin thickened and expanded over the per- 
foration. 
Diam. maj. 18, min. 14, alt. 12 lines.

2. Hexix (HApDRA) JOHNSTONEI, sp. nov. (Plate IV. fig. 2.) 
Shell deeply perforated, globosely turbinated, rather thick, finely 
striated, banded with spiral chestnut bands, one very broad at the 
suture; whorls 63, moderately convex, last whorl large and descend-

moderately reflected, margins approximating, columellar thickened 
and expanded over the perforation. 
Diam. maj. 20, min. 16, alt. 14 lines.

This species somewhat resembles Helix ince in its markings, but 
is more conical, and has a thick, white and reflected peristome. 
3. Hexrx (HapkA) HILLI, sp. nov. (Plate IV. fig. 3.) 
Shell umbilicated, turbinately globose, thick, dark chestnut, spirally 
lined with darker lines; whorls 63, convex, the three forming the 
apex of a light yellow, with a dark broad band below the suture, base 
convex, lined as above; aperture oblique; peristome thickened and 
reflected, white ; margins approximating, the right slightly descend- 
ing, columellar thickened and partly expanded over the umbilicus. 
Diam. maj. 17, min. 144, alt. 12 lines.

4. Hexirx (HapRA) BELLENDEN-KERENSIS, sp. nov. (Plate IV. 
fig. 4.) 
Shell deeply umbilicated, globosely turbinated, obliquely striated, 
and minutely transversely lined with small lines resembling grains, 
reddish brown, with two spiral chestnut bands, one on the centre and 
the other above; whorls 6, slightly convex, last large; base convex, 
striated as above; spire conical, obtuse; aperture oblique, ovately 
lunate, interior blue-black ; peristome thickened and reflected; margins

Hab. Bellenden-Ker Mountains, North-east Australia (Coll. 
Brazier). 
This fine shell was only recently obtained at the locality given, 
which is near to the Endeavour river. The three specimens I have 
seen are all of the same colour. 
5. Heix (HaprA) coxen#, sp. nov. (Plate IV. fig. 5.) 
Shell umbilicated, somewhat turbinately globose, obliquely striated,
