reaching the posterior margin, the cutting point projecting beyond it. 
Marginals broader than long; the inner with three cutting points; the 
three outer very broad, with two small points at the inner corner. 
Hab. Rangitira Bush, Temuka (C. Chilton). 
The shell is hairy, but the hairs rub off when the animal is dead. 
HELIX ZEALANDLE, Gray. Pl. x., fig. E. 
Jaw arcuate, flatly ribbed, the ribs indenting the concave margin. 
Dentition, 85-1-85 ; varying from 27 to 40. Laterals about 9 ; varying 
from 8 to 10. 
Central tooth rectangular, the length more than twice the breadth ; the 
reflexed portion half the length of the base, slightly constricted and with a 
moderate point. The inner laterals like the central tooth, but broader and 
with the outer lobe more marked and notched, the notch getting gradually 
less outwards. Inner marginals with a long base and a short reflexed 
portion bearing a long oblique cutting point on the inner edge and a small 
cusp on the outer; outer marginals irregular, the breadth and length about 
equal, with a long oblique cutting point. The laterals pass gradually into the 
marginals, and the cutting point is longest in the middle of the marginals. 
Hab. Auckland (T. F. Cheeseman). 
Heu antropa, Hombron and Jacquinot, Pl. x., fig. F. 
Animal with the foot narrow, produced behind the shell; a caudal 
papilla and a mucous gland below it. Mantle subcentral, slightly reflected 
over the peristome of the shell. Colour pale grey, the anterior portion 
darker ; peduncles and a line down each side of the head dark blue-black ; 
mantle pale grey with dead white spots. 
Jaw like that of zealandia. 
Dentition, 85-1-85 ; varying from 81 to 36. Laterals about 12. 
Central tooth rectangular, its length more than twice its breadth; the 
reflexed portion about half as long as the base, slightly constricted at about 
a third of its length, the point moderate. The first five or six laterals like 
the central tooth; the others oblique, with a large cutting point on the 
inner edge of the reflexed portion, and a small exterior cusp. Marginals 
with a small irregular base, and a long oblique cutting point, increasing in 
length to about the middle of the marginals and then decreasing. 
Hab. Greymouth (R. Helms). 
The shell varies very much in colour, sometimes being painted with 
alternating oblique narrow bands of yellowish white and rufous, some- 
times almost entirely rufous, or pale brown.

the concave
