Eulima capillastericola sp. nov. 
By 
Paul Bartsch. 
Washington, D. C. — U. S. America. 
Snell minute, falciform, regularly tapering, broadly conical, 
translucent; whorls increasing rapidly in size, well rounded, with 
appressed summits; the body of the preceding turn shows through 
the appressed portion of the summit and lends to the whorls the 
appearance of having a double suture; periphery of the last whorl 
inflated; base strongly rounded; entire surface of the shell glossy, 
without sculpture; aperture rhomboidal, posterior angle acute; outer 
lip decidedly curved, the posterior portion joining the preceding 
turn a considerable distance behind the plane of the middle of the 
lip; columella slender, almost straight. 
The type has 91/2 whorls and measures: length 2,1 mm., 
diameter 1,0 mm. 
The type was found by Mr. A. H. Clark on a specimen of 
Capillaster multiradiata collected by Mr. Svend Gad at Singa- 
pore (cf. p. 134 of the paper by Mr. Clark). 
The type specimen is in the collection of the Copenhagen 
Museum.
