U6 W. ThaohM— Notes on the land [No. 3, 



N. PEETiosus, Cantor. 

 The type was obtained near the Jhilum on the well-contested battle- 

 field of Chilianwalla. The species also occurs sparingly throughout the 

 Jhilum valley below Uri, but is nowhere common except about Kathai fort 

 on the right bank, where it is abundant, though I saw only dead shells. 

 The range of this species must be very limited, as I have not noticed it to 

 the eastward, or anywhere in the cis-Ravi country. 



N. SMITHII, B. 



An occasional individual of what I take to be this species, is here and 

 there met with in the Jhilum valley below Uri, but I have only seen dead 

 shells. It also occurs at Mari, where I have seen a few specimens, a trifle 

 smaller than the type. My best specimen measures 11-1 x 8"5 mm. and 

 exhibits the characteristic dilatation of the peristome. 



N. ETJFISTEIGATUS, B. 



Common on the outer hills from the Jumna to the Indus. Closely 

 allied to this species and with difficulty separable in a large series, are 

 N. eremita, B., N. sindicus, B., JV. salsicola, B. and N'. spelceuSj Hutton, 

 these two last forms being erroneously placed in my Catalogue (Thacker 

 and Co., 1876,) under Cylindrus. 



Opeas gracilis, Hutton. 

 The outer hills bordering the plains, but not noticed in the valley. 



CxLINDRrS INSULAEIS, Ehr. 

 The outer hills and plains. 



Pupa MuscoErM, L. 



P. GTJTTA, B. 



Both these species no doubt spread over the higher ranges of Kash- 

 mir, though the type of the latter species has only been taken by me in 

 Spiti. 



P. HIMALATANA, B. 

 P. HUTTOJ^IANA, B. 



Both these species occur abundantly on the Panjal range and in the 

 debris of streams flowing therefrom, whence they are carried down during 



floods into the plains. 



P. — sp. 



A single specimen of a Pupa somewhat of the plicidens type occurred 

 in the Jhilum valley with numbers of the last two species. I do not know 

 it, but hesitate to describe it as new, till it has been compared more fully 

 than I have at present means of doing. 



Alt. 2'5 mm. 



Clausilia ctlindeica, Gray. 



I did not take this species in Kashmir, but as I took it in Dharmsala 

 a little east of the llavi, I have no doubt that it should be included in the 

 Kashmir fauna.
