Although I have not yet been able to compare authentic specimens 

 of ti. bensonianum, BHd., from Ava, I am convinced that the Perak 

 form cannot be combined with it, and that it constitutes a good new 

 species. It is somewhat more conical and comparatively higher than 

 the Ava form, the upper whorls are more convex, not "planulati" 

 as Blanford has it, the last whorl is more detached, and stretches to 

 the right ; facing the shell the whole aperture is visible in H. ben- 

 sonianum, only part of it in H. hung erf ordianum. There are seven 

 instead, of four teeth. I suppose that the additional fifth tooth 

 mentioned by Blanford means that the parietal tooth or lamella is 

 divided as in the Perak species, but the latter possesses three more 

 between the parietal and columellar lamellae. 



The following species of Hypselostoma are now known : — 



1, H. tubiferum, Bens. — Ava. 



2i H. bensonianum, Blfd. — Ava. 



3. H. doyunum, Stol. — Moulmein. 



4. H. hungerf ordianum, v. MolldfF. — Perak. 



5. H. trunsitans, v Molldff. — Samui Island, Gulf of Siam. 



6. H. crossei, Mori. — Tonking. 



7. H. lusonicum, v. MolldfF. — Luzon. ) pv,*!' ' T 1 1 

 , var. imbricata, v. MoUdff.— Cebu. J "" 



The genus is connected by H. transitans with Boysidia, Ancey, 

 a subgenus o^ Pupa created for P. hunanensis, Gredl., P. str ophostoma , 

 Y. MoUdff., and others from China, to which I believe some Indian 

 species, as P. palmira, Stol., plicidens, Bens., salwiniana, Theob., 

 likewise belong. Hypselostoma is an extreme development of the 

 Boysidia type.
