the labial side ; 5 sharp diagonal raised lines crossing from right 

 above to left below on the labral side of the hollow.

Named in compliment to J. Gwyn Jeffreys, Esq., late of Swansea, 

 now of London, a zealous conchologist and possessor of the finest

Blandia Bairdiana, Chitty. 



Hab. Yallah's Hill. 



Form, subdiscoidal. Colour, very pale horn or pure white. 

 Sculpture, about 30 or 40 spiral carinas, almost obsolete, scarcely 

 visible under a 1^-inch microscope, about 5 being rather more sharp 

 than the rest; on the upper whorls about 7. Spire, very slightly 

 elevated, with rather concave outlines. Whorls, 3^, moderately 

 rounded, with a light suture : last whorl rather flattened at the peri- 

 phery. Aperture, semielliptical, very much produced from the 

 body- whorl, rather depressed above, but elegantly expanded through- 

 out. Labrum, very much produced above, joining the body-whorl 

 in a very graceful serpentine curving lamella, (by which the shell 

 may be distinguished,) much thickened and reflected. Labium, mo- 

 derately detached from the body-whorl and thickened and reflected, 

 slightly curved to the right below, very much below the plane of 

 the labrum. Umbilicus, broad and moderately deep. Labral la- 

 mella, very sharp and narrowly produced. Operculum, deep con- 

 cave, apparently smooth, or with blunt vertical lamellae, margined all 

 round, labial side much curved, rather pointed at upper and lower 

 extremity. 



Height 0-033, greatest breadth 0-062, least breadth 0-052. 



Named in compliment to my friend Dr. Baird, of the British 

 Museum. 



Var. Minor. A much smaller variety, coming from the same 

 habitat. 



Blandia MacGillivrayana, Chitty. 



Hab. (?) Pedro district, St. Ann's. 



Form, subdiscoidal. Colour, pale yellow. Sculpture, 20 faint 

 equidistant spiral carinse ; on the upper whorls, 6. Spire, very little 

 elevated, with convex outlines. Whorls, 3^, moderately rounded 

 with a moderate suture. Aperture, large, very broadly expanding, 

 slightly depressed above. Labrum, double throughout, but more so 

 above, slightly reflected, white, smooth, much produced above, leaving 

 the body-whorl at an angle of about 50°. Labium, almost appressed 

 to the body-whorl in its centre, slightly curved above, more below to 

 the right, below the plane of the labrum. Umbilicus, shallow and 

 spreading. Labral lamella, very little produced. Operculum, not 

 concave, but moderately sunk or depressed (flat or smooth) in its 

 interior surface, more so at the lower labial side ; edge on labral side 

 much and broadly folded over convexly. 



Height 0-034, greatest breadth 0*055, least breadth 0-045.
