the same, with the last joints darker; the hind ones are 
slightly curved and covered with short pubescence. Wings 
clear, with the usual dark brown colouring at the base, on 
the fore border, and as a transverse band, this latter with a 
hyaline sinus on the inner border, leaving the fifth posterior 
cell clear except at its base; the apical spot is long and 
narrow, the apical border of the band is straight; the fifth 
longitudinal vein is slightly shaded with the darker colour. 
The male is similar, but the yellow band on the third 
segment is as distinct as the others and the spots on the sides 
of the second segment obsolete; the triangle between the 
base of the antenne and the eyes is wholly yellow; the tibize 
are browner and the pubescence on the posterior pair thicker ; 
the basal cells of the wings are darker, as usual in the males 
of this genus, having only a narrow clear stripe between them 
and the band.

XLI.—Descriptions of Fourteen new Species of Terrestrial 
Mollusca from South Africa. By JAMES Cosmo MELVILL, 
M.A., F.L.S., and Joan Henry Ponsonsy, F.Z.S. 
[Plate IL.] 
Our last contribution towards the elucidation of the South- 
African non-marine molluscan fauna appeared in the ‘ Annals’ 
for September 1899 *, immediately before the outbreak of the 
Boer war. Notwithstanding the disturbed state of the country, 
however, several of our correspondents have been able to 
successfully continue the prosecution of their researches, with 
the following results. We would especially call attention to 
a most interesting Subulinoid form, with the last whorl 
partially evolute, and also a remarkable Obeliscus.
