hillus of Dujardin (Mem. stir les Couches du Sol en Touraine, 1835, 

 Mem. Soc. Geol. France, p. 290, pi. xx. fig. 15), but in that species 

 the volutions are more tabulate, and the aperture is wider and shorter, 

 and less distinctly denticulated. 



It may also be compared with the illustrations of the same species 

 given by Hornes, p. 79, t. 40, figs. 1 and 2 (1856, Fossilen Mollusken 

 des Wiener Beckens) from the Vienna Basin. 



I dedicate this species to my esteemed friend Prof. T. Bupert 

 Jones, F.R.S., F.G.S., to whose kindness 1 am indebted for the oppor- 

 tunity of examining and describing this very interesting collection of 

 Sumatran fossils. 



Formation : — In bluish Tertiary Clay-marl. 



Locality : — Government of the West Coast of Sumatra. 



61. Handla? sp. (cast). PL XIV. Fig. 11. 



Judging from the presence of continuous varices on this cast, we 

 should attribute it to a species of Banella. It represents an elongated 

 turrited shell, with convex, rapidly-increasing, transversely-costated 

 volutions ; outer lip strongly denticulated within ; varices continuous. 



Dimensions : — Height 28 mm. ; breadth 14 mm. 



Formation : — In white Tertiary Clay-marl. 



Locality : — Government of the West Coast of Sumatra. 



62. Turbo Smithii, H. Woodw. PI. XIV. Fig. 12. 



Shell somewhat pyramidal, imperforate, volutions convex, whorls 

 about five in number, banded with numerous parallel spiral liras, 

 the larger ones prominently tuberculated or moniliform, the inter- 

 vening ones, especially on the body-whorl, being less distinctly 

 marked, the ornamentation becoming more squamose on the body- 

 whorl ; aperture plain, ovate. 



Dimensions : — Height 17 mm.; breadth 15 mm. 



I venture to name this species after my colleague Mr. Edgar A. 

 Smith, F.Z.S., whose kind assistance has been at all times most 

 willingly afforded me in my researches. 



Formation : — In white Tertiary Clay-marl. 



Locality : — Government of the West Coast of Sumatra. 



63. Turbo Sumatrensis, H. Woodw. PI. XIV. Fig. 13. 



Shell moderately thick, turbinate, spire rather elevated, whorls 

 tumid, slightly angular above, with numerous minute ridges crossed 

 by very oblique longitudinal stria?, giving the shell a faintly reticu- 

 late appearance ; aperture circular ; inner lip somewhat callous. 



Dimensions : — Height of shell 8 mm. ; breadth 8 mm. 



This shell may be compared with the Turbo squamulosus, Lamk., 

 (see Deshayes, 1837, Descrip. des Coquilles Foss. des Env. de Paris, 

 Atlas, pi. 32,* figs. 4 and 5), but the French specimen is more strongly 

 squamose and much larger in size. 



Formation : — From Tertiary deposit ? (no matrix visible). 



Locality : — Government of West Coast of Sumatra. 



64. Monodonta submamilla, H. Woodw. PI. XIV. Fig. 14, a, b. 

 Shell subturbinate, smooth, rather thick, volutions five in number, 



rounded; aperture subovate, oblique, produced, inner lip toothed,
