Sophina conjungens, n. sp., pi. xix, fig. 6, 13. 



Soph, testa semigloboso orbiculata, tenui, semipellucida, cornea, 

 in speciminibus junioribus fere hyalina ; anfractibus 5 — 5^, con- 

 vexiusculis, suturis adpressis vix canaliculatis sejunctis, striis incre- 

 menti tenuibus et alteris spiralibus subtilissismis tectis, nonnunquam 

 albide strigatis seu fasciatis ; anf. ult. ad peripheriam rotundato, ad 

 basin leviter convexo, modice umbilicato : umbilico 0*13 part. diam. 

 maj. long, aequante, carina obtusa indistincta, nonnunquam fere 

 obsoleta, circumdato ; apertura semilunari, marginibus tenuissimis 

 instructa: labio adnato expansiusculo, columellari vix incrassato, 

 obliquo, ad basin paulo reflexo ; labro fere recto ; emarginatione 

 umbilicali minima. Speciminis max. diamet. maj. 11*6 mm.; minor 

 10 ; axis, 6*2 ; alt. 7*2 ; alt. apert. 53 ; lat. ap. 5'6 mm. 



Hab. South, of Moulmein. 



This species represents in some respects a connecting link between 

 Ilacroehlamys (particularly the subgenus Burgella) and Sophina, the 

 umbilical carina being sometimes nearly obsolete, but it is always 

 indicated by an obtuse angle accompanied below by a slight furrow 

 and by a small emargination at the peristome. The shell when 

 young is almost diaphanous, and very thin ; older specimens become 

 partially opaque, especially near the sutures. The thin horny, 

 transversely finely striated cuticle is sometimes interrupted by 

 white spiral strise or bands on the whole surface, or only below ; 

 near the umbilical edge the strise of growth are generally also 

 more distinctly marked than elsewhere. 



The animal is greenish white, somewhat darker about the head, 

 but in no respect different from that of other Sophince.
