periphery. The surface is sculptured with rather weak, irregular 

 growth-striae, and covered with a brownish-yellow cuticle, which is 

 smoothish, without scaly or thread-like appendages. The whorls 

 increase very slowly, and the last is very slightly deflexed at the 

 aperture. The oblique aperture is rounded-lunate. Peristome thin, 

 expanded, the outer and basal margins narrowly rcflexed.

This .Egista agrees in shape witli friedcliana, but the whorls 

 of E. proximo, are more closely coiled, there being one more in shells 

 of equal diameter, and the cuticle shows no scale-like processes such 

 as E. friedeliana has. The type specimens are " dead " shells but 

 in good condition. Only four were taken. 



Eulota (iEgista) mimula peninsularis n. subsp. 



The shell differs from E. mimula chiefly by having more 

 numerous whorls, 6}/,. The lusterless cuticle bears adnate, thread- 

 like processes in places.

The shell is small, depressed, openly umbilicate, thin, light-brown. 

 The surface is slightly shining, sparsely set with long curved hairs, most 

 numerous in the region of the periphery, wanting on the inner whorls. 

 The spire is convex; whorls 5, slowly increasing, quite convex, and 

 separated by a deep suture. The last whorl is rounded at the periphery 

 and descends a little in front. The aperture is rounded-lunate, quite 

 oblique. The peristome is thin, expanded narrowly, slightly reflexed 

 at the base. The margins converge and are joined by a thin parietal 

 callus forming about one-fifth the circumference of the mouth.
