Paludomus Elanfordiana, n. sp. 



faludomus labiosa, Con. Indica, pi. 108, fig-. 9, (not of Bens.) "Tongoop." 



There are good many specimens in the Museum from Pegu and Ava, 

 also from Gowhatty in Assam, agreeing exactly with the shell figured as 

 above in the ' Con. Indica' ; there are also seven typical specimens of P. 

 labiosa, collected by Mr. Theobald in Tenasserim ; these latter are a good 

 deal smaller and less angularly globose than the Pegu species, their columel- 

 la is more vividly stained with brown, the brown bands are less regular and 

 distinct (showing in an especially marked way within the aperture) , and 

 finally both young and old specimens are truncated, which is apparently 

 never the case with the former ; the sculpture of both is the same, quite 

 smooth, except for a few irregular spiral striae below the suture ; the typical 

 specimens of P. labiosa are without opercula ; those of P. JBlanJhrdiana 

 resemble opercula of P. regulata, though they are even less rugose, the spiral 

 striae of the nucleolar portion of the inner side being distinct and regular 

 (seen through the lens) . 



P. labiosa from Tenasserim, long. max. 12^, diam. 10 ; 



P. Blanfordiana, type from Ava, long. max. 19, diam. 15 mil. ; 



P. Blanfordiana, var. from Assam, long. 20, diam. 15 mil. 



This species resembles as closely P. ornata as it does typical Tenasse- 

 rim P. labiosa ; specimens from Assam differ in no respect from Burmese 

 ones, except by the spire being a trifle more j)roduced, this locality for the 

 species is interesting, it appears to be very abundant there. 



Ampullaeia Theobaldi, Hani.

Unfortunately none of the 16 specimens collected by Dr. Anderson at 

 Bhamo are quite full-grown, the outer lip in all of them being thin and 

 sharp ; in the depression of the spire they agree with Reeve's figure of A. 

 inawa^ as well as the typical figure of A. Theobaldi ; the umbilicus is open, 

 agreeing exactly with the latter figure ; the colouration and shape of the 

 aperture are also the same ; I think it very doubtful, however, if it can be 

 separated as a distinct species from the common Assam form, from which 

 it onl}" seems to differ by its larger size, less produced spire, slightly more 

 open umbilicus, and in the colouration being a shade more vivid ; in the 

 latter two respects, however, some few Assam specimens approximate most 

 closely.

This variety is abundant at Sawady in the Thengleng stream, also at 

 Bhamo and at Shuaygoomyo ; four young specimens found at Myadoung
