Hab. Banks of the Maranon, near Balsas, Peru (on branches of a 

 species oi Jatrophd) ; W. Lobb. 



This fine species is of a delicate cream-white, striped longitudinally 

 by distinct ribands of light brown and dark purple chestnut, without 

 any of intermediate tint. Immediately behind the Up there is more of 

 the dark purple chestnut, approaching to black, and the interior of the 

 aperture is coloured with the same, having a somewhat metalHc hue. 



I have the pleasure to name it in honour of Mr. William Lobb, bo- 

 tanical collector of Messrs. Veitch and Son, the eminent nurserymen 

 of Exeter, to whose zeal in the pursuit of natural history the disco- 

 very of these interesting species bears honourable testimony.
