Beside the typical form described by Mr. Blanford from Arra- 

 can and Pegu, an interesting variety also occurs in the Shan States 

 for the identification of which I am indebted to Mr. Blanford. 

 It differs from the type by a shorter, more subtile and subglobose 

 shape, and by the ribs on the whorls being slightly more distant 

 from each other and very sharp. There are also some of the stronger 

 ribs traceable even on the constriction near the aperture. The 

 shell is pure white with the apex and the adjoining whorl beauti- 

 fully pale yellow. I have given an illustration of this variety in 

 order to facilitate comparison.
