Ltmn^ia oviEOEMis, sp. nov. PL Y. figs. 18 a, 18 6. 



L. testa ovato-ventricosa, apice acuto ; anfractibus 5-6, convexis, ultimo spira 

 longiore ; aperturalate ovata, superne angulata. Long. •5- - 72 ; lat. *25- - 4 unc. 



Very rare at Takli and Phizdura, from the former of which places 

 the smallest specimen was obtained. Phizdura yielded two, both of 

 them larger than that from Takli. The general contour of this species 

 is somewhat typical, possessing an intermediate character between L. 

 injiata and L. ovum. Of existing Indian species, L. luteola approaches 

 very near it, both in size and shape. 



Limn^a stjbulata, J. Sowerby, Trans. Geol. Soc. 2 ser. vol. v. pi. 47. 

 fig. 13. PLY. fig. 19. 



L. testa subfusifornii, apice acuto ; anfractibus 6^, convexis, sutura impressa se- 

 paratis, ultimo spira breviore ; apertura angusta ; labio brevi, sinuato ; labro 

 arcuato. Long, l'l ; lat. - 25 unc. 



Telankhecft, somewhat common. As Sowerby's description and 

 figure were from an imperfect specimen, I have here given a new de- 

 scription, and another figure is appended in PL Y. fig. 19. 



LlMN-SIA ATTENUATA, Sp. nOV. PL Y. fig. 20. 



L. testa elongato-turrita ; spira attenuata ; apice acuto ; anfractibus 7-8, convex - 

 iusculis, sutura excavata separatis, ultimo longitudinis trientem vix superante ; 



' apertura parva, acute ovata; labio brevissimo; labro arcuato. Long. 1-05; lat. 

 •2 unc. 



Telankheeft, rather rare. I am not sure that this form is spe- 

 cifically distinct from the preceding, along with which it is found. 

 The chief points of difference between the two are, that the one 

 which I have ventured to distinguish as attenuata is considerably 

 more slender, and at the same time exhibits more whorls than the 

 other in an equal length of spire. The great resemblance between 

 this form and the living North American species L. gracilis scarcely 

 needs to be pointed out. In India there is nothing at all similar to 

 it in the genus Limrma, though there is in the allied sinistral genus, 

 Gamptoceras, established by Benson.

vexiusculis, ultimo longitudinis trienti fere sequali ; apertura parva, angusta, 



ovata, superne coarctata. Long. -4 ; lat. - 1 unc.
