(as it is in Car. Regine), but continues until it forms a slight angle 
below the columella. In Car. papyracea the edge of the expanded 
lip is the lowest part of the shell, whereas in Car. Regine the white 
continuous edge of the columellar lip is placed above a green por- 
tion of the base of the volution, which is prominent below it; the 
columella is also quite different; and these distinctions cannot be 
attributed to difference of age, for the most complete specimens of 
each which have furnished the comparison are full-grown.

The sculpture of this species resembles that of Car. Regine, but 
there the similitude ends. The termination of the aperture is below 
the line of the body-whorl. The shell consequently rests more on 
its base: it is much more opaque than Car. Regine, and has no 
angle at the aperture, the inside of which has the iridescence of 
mother of pearl. ‘The sharp edge of the body-whorl is light yellow.

Mr. Cuming had named this species Car. Gallina; but as it is 
designated as Car. Listeri on the boards of the British Museum, and 
.as Lister appears to have been the first who figured it, but appa- 
rently from an imperfect shell, the latter name is retained. 
In colour and in the direction of the form and shape of the aperture 
it bears much resemblance to Helix auriculata, figured by Mr. Swain- 
son (Zoological Illustrations, 1st series) from aspecimen formerly in 
the cabinet of Mr. C. Dubois, afterwards in mine, and now in the
