Glessula subfusiformis, B1£. 

 Achatina (Glessula) subfusiformis, Blf., P. Z. S. 1869, p. 449 (Ponsee). 



The single type specimen in the Museum^ found on the First Expedi- 

 tion at Ponsee in Yunnan, remains unique ; the species cannot be confused 

 with any other of our Indian forms. 



Glessula ptramis, Bens. 

 Achatina pyramis.Ber^B. J A. Q.n.^'K. 1860, ser. 3, vol. V, p. 463 (Teria Ghat); Con. 



Indica, pi. 18, fig. 6. 



Several specimens were found at Ponsee in Yunnan which agree fairly 

 with the typical Khasi form. 



Glessula Blaneoediana, n. sp. 



Shell resembling that of G. Peguensis, Blf., but rather more slender 

 and of thicker texture, easily distinguished by the acutely raised undulating, 

 perpendiculary and longitudinal striation. 



Long. , diam. mil. 



Two specimens only from Ponsee in Yunnan. 



LlMN^A ANDERSOJS^IAIS^A, n. Sp. 



Shell small, horny brown, imperforate, globose, spire short ; whorls 

 four to five, last whorl large, ovate ; columella remarkably thick and reflect- 

 ed, straight, without any twist ; aperture subovate, anteriorly rather wide. 



This small species, well characterized by its remarkable columella, is 

 unlike any Indian species ; the figure that it most resembles in ' Kiister'& 

 Monog.' is a var. of L. peregra, pi. 3, figs. 17, 18 ; there is no shell like it 

 figured in the ' Conch. Iconica' ; probably L. andersoniana will prove to be a 

 common species throughout S. China. 



The late Dr. Stoliczka has since collected a perfectly identical form at 

 Yarkand, as well as a variety at Kashgar, the latter interesting as posses- 

 sing a very small umbilicus ; L. andersoniana appears to be next allied to 

 L. pervia, Mart. ( ? = i. Davidi, Desh.) and will require further comjDari- 

 son with type specimens of the two latter. 



Long. 10, diam. 6i ; apert. long. 7i, diam. 3f mil. 



Abundant at Sanda and Nantin in Yunnan, at 4000 feet. 



LiMN^A TU]srisrANE]S"sis, n. sp. 



Shell medium-sized, ovately oblong, imperforate, pale horn-colour, veiy 

 fragile, sj)ire acuminate ; whorls three to four, last whorl remarkably small ; 

 columella very strongly twisted and much produced, aj^erture very elongate 

 contracted anteriorly, broadly and beautifully regularly rounded at base. 



This species is closely allied to the shell figured by H. Adams, ' P. Z. 

 S.' for 1866, as L. Swlnhoei from Formosa ; it also resembles pi. 4, fig. 25&
