306 MR. A. GARRETT ON THE TERRESTRIAL [Mar. I, 



I received four examples of this singular species from the Museum 

 Godeffroy. One specimen has the last whorl separated from the 

 penultimate a distance of 4 millim. It may be distinguished by 

 its depressed form, undulated whorls, and crenulated spiral lines. 



3. OsTODES STRICTUS, Mousson. 



Ostorhs strictus, Mousson, MS., Museum Godeffroy, 188.5. 



Shell umbilicated, depressed, turbinate, solid, rugose, decorticated, 

 cinereous, sometimes with a ruddy tinge on the last whorl ; spire 

 depressedly conoid, apex esserted ; suture impressed ; whorls 5, con- 

 vex, transversely rugosely wrinkled, closely iineated with spiral 

 elevated lines, becoming evanescent on the rounded body-whorl ; 

 umbilicus wide, freely exhibiting all the whorls, spirally* Iineated 

 with raised lines, and the margins slightly angulated ; aperture 

 oblique, subcircular ; peristome straight, simple, nearly continuous, 

 briefly joined to the body-whorl. 



Major diam. 13, height 7 millim. 



Vatu Lale. 



Three examples received from the Godeffroy Museum. It is very 

 closely related to Gould's 0. strigattis, a Samoa species, and, excepting 

 in size, can scarcely be distinguished from the Nevf-Caledonian 

 O. bocageanus. 



Genus Pupina, Vignard. 

 1. Pupina vitiensis, Garrett. 



Piipina vitiensis, Garrett, Proc. Phil. Acad. Nat. Sci. 1873, p. 233, 

 pi. 3. fig. 62; Schmeltz, Cat. Mus. Godeff. vi. pp. 83, 104. 



A somewhat rare species, found beneath damp decaying leaves at 

 Gomea Island. Mr. Liardet records a species of Pupina as occur- 

 ring on Taviuni, which is probably the same as the Gomea shell. 

 Schmeltz erroneously assigns it to Kandavu. 



A brilliant, highly polished, oblong, whitish corneous species, with 

 slightly swollen spire, the left side more convex than the right, and 

 the columella with a tongue-like projection forming a deep notch. 

 An obtuse plait on the upper part of the parietal wall. Length 7 

 millim.

I found a few examples of this species at Vanua Balavo, where 

 Dr. Griiffe discovered the type specimens. The Doctor subse- 

 quently found it on Viti Levu, Ticombia, and at Tongatabu, one of
