 thin, nearly smooth, not polished, minutely striate with lines of 

 growth and with a few slightly raised longitudinal striae on the 

 last whorl. Color a pale dull red under a yellowish cuticle. Spire

Type No. 14,910, Bishop Museum. 



Another form from Waihiawa, Oahu, though slightly larger, 

 undoubtedly belongs to this species. 



Lymaniana is somewhat related to H. iiberta Gld. Its smaller 

 size and more globose form easih' separate it from Gould's species. 



Helicina juddii, n. sp. 



Fig. 13. 



The shell is semiglobose, with a flattened ba.se and a rounded 

 peripher}', solid, nearl}- smooth, but under a lens fine growth-lines

 scending wrinkles. Spire elevated, with convex outlines. Suture 

 simple, well impressed. Whorls 4^, slighth- convex, the last 

 rather abruptly descending in front, rounded at the peripher}' and 

 above, flattened below. Aperture contracted, semicircular, very 

 oblique ; outer lip thickened w'ithin, though thin at the edge, du-
