Journ, i. 68. H. rubra, Pfeiffer. crassa, D'Orb. Moll. Cub. p. 243. 



T. Sagrae simili, scd magis depressa, anfractu ultimo minoii, 

 magis roturidato. 



Smaller and more globose than the last, with the last whorl 

 smaller in proportion and less angulated, probably however only a 

 variety of H. Sagra. Cuba. 



11. H. pui.ch errima, Lea. (pi. i. f. 14.) Lea. obs. 



T. H. Sagrae simili, sed magis globosa, striis concentricis regula- 

 ribus, distinctis. 



Rather lighter and much more globose than the last, with the 

 stiiae distinct and regular. 



12. H. festiva. (pi. i. f. 9.) Gray. Beech. App. 



T. H. Sagrae simili, sed concentrice lirata, interstitiis rubro- 



lineatis. 



Shaped like Helicina Sagra, but concentrically grooved, with the 

 interstices coloured red. The figure is taken from Beechey's 

 Appendix ; we are inclined to think it over-coloured. 



Sec. 3. Shell more globose, thinner, notch deeper. 



13. H. major, (pi. i. f. 12, 13.) Gray. Zool. Journ. i. 68. 



T. globosa, laevi, sub-tenui, anfractu ultimo magno; apertur;'* 

 semilunari; labio externo reflexo, expanso ; prope columellam 

 vakle emarginato ; labio interno subtus leviter calloso ; columella 

 parva ; operculo calcareo. 



Shell rather thin, globose, the last whorl large, aperture semi- 

 lunar, outer lip reflected, expanded, with a deep notch at the termi- 

 nation of the columella, inner lip expanded, slightly callous under- 

 neath, operculum shelly. 



14. H. Brownii. (pi. i. f 7, 8.) 



T. globosa, tenui, anfractu ultimo magno; apertura semi-lunarij 

 labio externo reflexo, paululum expanso; prope columellam incisura 

 elongata ; labio interno prope columellam sub-calloso; columella 

 obliqua, acuta. 



Globose, thin, shaped like H. major, but differing from that and 

 all other species in the deep elongated incision at the base of the 

 columella. 



15. H. dknti g era . (pi. iii. f. 107, 108.) D'Orb. Moll. Cuba, 

 p 293. 



T. globosa sub-depressa, alba, labio externo paululum reflexo 

 prope columellam emarginato; labio interno tenui; columella pro- 

 ducts, acuta, dentem efformante. 



A small white shell, shaped like the two last, with the outer lip 

 slightly reflected and the notch as in H. major. Cuba. 



16. H. hispida. (pi. iii. f. 112, 113.) Pfeiffer. Weig. Arch,

 efformante; labio crassiutculo juxta dextram acute inciso; apertura 

 semi-lunari.
