46; 



This species agrees by the small wiiiL;- with the pi-cccdin^ one, 1>iii its marj^in lound 

 {he impressed spire is still much hluiUci-, ihe shell is mori- convex; the new species is much more 

 convex than in .S". ca)iccllatus^ the columella much more curved, the peristome more convex; 

 moreover the shell is considerably larg-er and the sculpture much coarser than any of the 

 species described above or otherwise describcul h-om the Indic. Tiie specimen from Stat. 45 is 

 ver}' young' and tioubtful. 



4. ScapJicDidcr sp. 



Stat. 321. 6°5'.5S., I 13° 30' E. Java-sea. 82 M. Fine, grey nuul. 1 Spec. 



The specimen long about 5Y2 Mill., probably belongs to the genus Scaphander ; as its 

 peristome is very fragile, the basal margin broken, and the shell has been broken and repaired 

 during life, I think it is preferable not to name or describe it, as it is too young and obscure. 



5. Scaphander sp. ? 



Stat. 260. Near North point of Nuhu Jaan, Kei-islands. 90 M. .Sand, coral and shells. 2 Spec. 



The specimens are small and decidedly young; though the sculpture resembles that of 

 the preceding specimen, I think they do not belong to the same species; they are still less 

 worth describino-.

Both specimens of this common species are very young.

 Stat. 133. Lirung, Salibabu-island. Up to 36 M. Mud and hard sand, i Spec. 



Both specimens have the appearance of being young ; as both are moreover defective 

 and the shape has no prominent characters, I think it not advisable to name them ; the shells are 

 much more elongated than the young specimens of A. 7iauciLin and have only a ver}- faint 

 columellar fold. The species much resembles A. hyalina Watson, but seems not to be identical, 

 as Mr. Smith, who compared it in the British Museum, has not identified it.
