The form Cochlostyla cincinniformis unitaeniata Mllf. refers 

 to a figure representing a typical specimen of H. cincinniformis, 

 and therefore is an absolute synonym. 



H. cincinniformis appears to be the most abundant form of 

 this group on Lubang. 



11. Helicostyla cincinniformis lubanensis, var. nov. 



PL 17, fig. 1. 



This variety is very distinct from Helicostyla cincinniformis 

 Sowerby as figured by Pilsbry (Man. of Conch, part 2, vol. 8, 

 p. 18, 1892, pi. 6, fig. 21, 22, 24) in being without the dark brown 

 bands at the periphery, at the base, and at the sutures. A few 

 specimens, however, show a sHght tendency towards producing 

 mikado brown bands at the periphery and suture, but in some 

 individuals these are obsolete. 



Description. — Shell imperforate, ovate-conic, moderately thin, quite trans- 

 parent in young specimens. White or ivory yellow, the latter color being 

 usual in young specimens, while in adults it is chiefly present in the parietal 

 region. Mikado brown subsutural and peripheral bands present in some
