1871. J F. Stoliczka — Notes on terrestrial Mbllusea. 173 



I have not seen the animal of H. Dayanum, but that of tubi- 

 ferum was noticed by Blanford, and observed by myself. The speci- 

 mens I saw were pale grey ; they had the eye pedicles rather more 

 elongated than usually in species of Pupa, and more resembling 

 those of .Helix ; the tentacles at the base of the rostrum were 

 very minute, both blackish. The rostrum itself is thick and very 

 minutely notched at the front edge. The foot is short, ovately 

 elongated, roundly truncate posteriorly. The animal, when moving, 

 carries its shell in a reverse position (see pi. vii, fig. 1). On the 

 whole it greatly resembles that of Anostoma, as figured by Fischer 

 in Journ.de Conch, for 1869, Vol. ix, pi. xi, figs. 1-2. 



Fam . CLA USILIILJZ. 



Clausilia Drap. 



A short time ago only very few species bolonging to this genus 

 were known from the Indian regions, but the number is consider- 

 ably increasing. It is a noteworthy fact that nearly all the species 

 at present on record characterize the so-called Malayan fauna. 

 Several species were lately described by E. v. Martens and others 

 from Sumatra and adjacent islands. I have two new species from 

 Penang ; one was recorded by Pfeiffer and Dunker from the Nicobars ; 

 a single specimen of a species, apparently identical with one from 

 Penang, was obtained by me on the Andaman islands. From Burma 

 C.insignis and vespa, Gld., CPhilippian a eend Gould iana,Yh., C.hulbus, 

 Bens., fusiformis, Blf., and tuba, Hanley (Conch. Inclica, pi. xxiv, 

 fig. 9,) were made known. Theobald described CI. Masoni, which 

 with the last mentioned species, belongs to a peculiar type of Clau- 

 silia, having as its close ally Troschel's CI. Peruana, classed by H. 

 and A. Adams and Albers in the subgenus Nenia. Mr. Theobald also 

 obtained about Moulmein and in eastern Pegu several as yet un- 

 described species. From the Khasi hills, Benson described CI. loxo- 

 stoma, and C. hacillum of Benson was recently figured in the Conch. 

 Indica. There are, however, at least three other species* from the 

 same regions, mostly collected by Major Godwin-Austen. CI. Jos, 

 Bens., is from Darjeeling, while CI. cylindrica, Gray, is as yet the 



* These and other new species will be described by Mr. VV. Blanford, in his 

 forthcoming Monograph of the Indian species of this genus.
