1868.] Figures of Indian Diplommatina. 83 



D. (Nicida,) Fairbanki, the largest form yet found in Southern India 

 3} millimetres in length. It has 7 J whorls and resembles a lengthen- 

 ed specimen of D. Nilgirica. The last whorl rises to an unusual 

 extent and there is a basal keel. From the Pulney hills (Rev. S. 

 Fairbank). 



D. {Nicida) liricincta, a conoidly ovate shell with marked spiral 

 ribbing, being the only species so far as I am aware yet found be- 

 longing to the Diplommatinidce which possesses spiral sculpture. 

 Found abundantly at Khandalla with Cyathopoma Deccanense. 

 The new species are described in a paper recently sent to the 



Journal de Conchyliologie.
