770 ON SHELLS or THE GENERA STE.EPTAXTS AJO) ETOTEA. [June 6, 



closely resembling that of the former species, whilst the general 

 shape comes nearer to that of the latter, from which the present 

 species is distinguished by having an additional whorl and more 

 elongate proportions. The oblique flexuous costulation of E. na- 

 gaensis is finer than the sculpture of either of the allied forms. 



Several specimens of this species were obtained by Col. Godwin- 

 Austen in the Naga Hills. 



Ennea milium G-.-A. (Plate L. figs. 18, 19.) 



In the original figure of this small form ^ the teeth within the 

 peristome were wrongly drawn. I have recently been able, through 

 Col. Godwin-Austen's kindness, to examine the original type, which 

 is the only specimen hitherto obtained. The locality where this shell 

 was found is in a tract of the lower Himalayas, very difficult of 

 access, lyiug north of Assam. I find that instead of a single tooth 

 in the right margin of the aperture there are two, one opposite the 

 parietal lamella, the other lower and more internal ; there is also 

 a low broad basal tooth and an internal columellar lamella. A 

 fresh figure is given herewith. 



Ennea canabica Bedd. (Plate L. fig. 25.) 



This species was described by me in 1880 '^ but not figured, and 

 as the form is a remarkable one, I make use of the present 

 opportunity to give a figure. This and the next species differ 

 considerably from the other South Indian Enneas, allied to 

 E. pirriei and E. macrodon, forming the group to which E. turri- 

 cula belongs. E. canarica is from South Canara. 



Ennea beddomii Blf. (Plate L. figs. 20, 21.) 



This Avas described with the last, and, like it, requires figuring. 

 Both species were obtained by Col. Beddome, to whom I am 

 indebted for specimens. E. beddomii is from the Sivagiri Hills, 

 Tinnevelly.
