a distance from the labrum, and then elegantly and slightly expanded. 

 Labrum, well, and in an elegant curve, produced above, treble above 

 and double below, as in Helix Rupis-fontis in my cabinet (N.B. since 

 first describing this shell it has unfortunately got broken), very 

 slightly thickened at its extreme edge, and white. Labium, mode- 

 rately detached from body-whorl, wide and much reflected, curving 

 slightly throughout, below the plane of labrum. Umbilicus, mode- 

 rately deep and broad. Labral lamella, slightly produced. Oper- 

 culum, ? 



Height 0-034, greatest breadth 0-057, least breadth 0-041. 



Named in compliment to Dr. Traill (Malacca ?), the great East 

 Indian collector. 



Blandia Ltjkisiana, Chitty. 



Hab. Near Port Maria (unique). 



Form, subdiscoidal. Colour, pale horn. Sculpture, 27 fine sharp 

 spiral carinse, the 6th, 10th, 15th, and 23rd being rather stronger; 

 on the upper whorls, 6. Spire, much depressed, with slightly con- 

 vex outlines. Whorls, 3^rd, moderately rounded, with a moderate 

 suture. Aperture, slightly depressed above, expanded below, semi- 

 elliptic. Labrum, produced above in a curve, leaving the body-whorl 

 in a quasi angle of about 80°, double and widely so above, pectinated 

 by about 5 points, very slightly reflected, white. Labium, nearly 

 straight, very little curved to the right below, slightly detached from 

 the body-whorl, on a plane with the labrum above, lower below. 

 Umbilicus, moderately deep. Labral lamella, rather produced in its 

 centre. Operculum, ?

Blandia Loweana, Chitty. 



Hab. Bodle's Pen Wood, St. Dorothy. 



Form, subdiscoidal. Colour, dark horn. Sculpture, spiral carinse, 

 5 less and 1 strong repeated four times, then 5 less and 2 strong, 

 then 3 fine and 1 strong, and 4 less strong ; on the upper whorls, 

 7 or 8. Spire, very slightly elevated, with slightly concave outlines. 

 Apex, obtusely prominent. Whorls, 3^, very slightly rounded, with 

 a deep suture. Aperture, more than a semicircle, rather expanded 

 above, very slightly deflected and expanded below. Labrum, slightly 

 produced above at the 1st and 2nd strong carinse, broadly pectinated 

 and scolloped by all the strong carinse. Labium, well-detached from 

 the body-whorl, below the plane of the labrum above, slightly 

 rounded and nearly up to the plane of the labrum in the lower end. 

 Umbilicus, moderately deep. Labral lamella, very sharp and narrow. 

 Operculum, deeply concave in the centre and minutely granulated ; 

 two or three microscopic lamellae crossing vertically, the edge all 

 round thickened and deeply reflected outward, the upper edge having 

 five or six deep irregular vertical folds. 



Height 0-027, greatest breadth 0-055, least breadth 0-042.
