Type in my collection. 



Hah. — North Island : Tuakau (type) ; vicinity of Auckland ; 

 Waitakerei Range ; Stratford. 

 ,, Yery often found in leaf-sheaths of Mkau palms. 



Remarks. — This subspecies was formerly included in A. hitentacu- 

 latus, and is the form mentioned by me as being semi-transparent 

 and having an orange mantle-area. It is also distinguished from the 

 species by the brown grooves, the rows of brown spots close to the 

 side-grooves, the mantle-area limited in front and behind by a groove 

 and open on the side, and the presence of a pre-anal groove.

 Slugs of New Zealand and its sub-antarctic islands, resembling 

 Athoracophorus, s.str., but showing a decided tendency towards the 

 formation of a mantle-area like that of Aneitea. 



These slugs are not always small. Notum usually finely granulate, 

 with larger raised tubercles or papillae between the lateral grooves. 

 Mantle-area distinct, triangular or rarely quadrangular, enclosing the 

 respiratory and renal orifices. Anus near the perinotum.

 There is no spermoviduct. In fig. xiv on p. 254 pr. is the bulbose 

 gland (Knollendriise of Plate), not ^he prostate, and ov. is the glomerate 

 gland (Knaueldriise of Plate), not the oviduct. The receptaculum 

 seminis is distal.

 This new species will be described and figured in the report on the
