]22 EEV. E. BOOG WATSON ON THE 



tip. Sctilpture nore. Colour glossy porcellaneous white. Apex 

 small, but very blunt and round Spire conical, unsymmetrical. 

 Whorls 9, short, broad, flat ; the last, which is small, is bluntly 

 angulated at the periphery, and has a blunt rounded base. 

 Suture minutely but sharply impressed. Mouth small, oblique, 

 pear-shaped with a gutter in front, aud altogether very like the 

 mouth of a Bissoina. Outer lip thick and strong, but with a sharp 

 edge ; it is well arched ; the edge retreats above, is very promi- 

 nently rounded in the middle, and retires in front, where it is 

 patulous. Inner lip : a narrow defined glaze crosses the body, 

 which is barely convex ; this glaze spreads a little at the concave 

 base of the pillar, which is extremely short and narrow, and has 

 a sharpish edge. H. 0"085. B. 0"03. Penultimate whorl, height 

 0-014. Tip of apex 0-004. Mouth, height 0-024, breadth 

 0-017. 



This small species is like some of the small EuUmellas, but 

 is a true Eulima. 



14. Eulima camptla, n. sp. (KafiTrvXas, curved.) 

 St. 185 6. August 31, 1874. Lat. 11° 38' 15" S., long.

Shell. — Subfusif orm, thin, with a narrow direct semioval mouth, 

 a long subconcave base, flat whorls, an impressed suture, slightly 

 convex profiles, and a small blunt tip. Sculpture. There are a 

 few very slight lines of growth. Oolotcr hyaline to porcella- 

 neous. Apea; ainall, but very bluntly rounded, a little tumid; 

 the extreme tip rises a little on one side. Spire : laterally it is 

 straight ; but the whole shell bends forward in the plane of the 

 mouth*, and the apex has abend over of its own. Whorls 9, 

 those toward the apex are slightly convex, those lower down 

 are less so ; the earlier ones are of slow and regular increase, 

 but the penultimate is rather long, and the last one is elou- 

 gated and attenuated. Suture fine, slightly impressed, very 

 little oblique ; towards the lip it rises a little, a peculiarity con- 

 nected with the bend of the shell tow^ard the mouth. Mouth 

 semioval, very long and narrow. Otiter lip straight, converging 

 toward the pillar, sweeping across the base with a very regular 

 and even curve ; the edge retreats above, but from the middle 

 onwards is perfectly flat ; in front it is very patulous and spoon- 

 * It is from this curTcd form that the name of the species is clerived.
