BULIMUS.— Plate XLVIII. 
Hah. Province of Corrientes, Argentine Eepublic, Bolivia 
(under dead leaves) ; D’Orbigny. 
The chief specific peculiarity of this species resides in 
the painting, which does not descend below the sutural line 
of the whorls. 
Species 314. (Mus. Cuming.) 
Btjlimus feeiatxjs. Bui. testa suhfusiformi, vix umhili- 
catd, anfractihus sex, subtiliter nigoso-striatis, suturis 
impressis, columella reflexd, aperturd parviusculd, labro 
expamo ; fuscescente, fusco strigatd et mriegatd, 
punctis albis aspersd. 
The UNEMi’LOTED Bclimtis. Shell somewhat fusiform, 
scarcely umbdicated, whorls six in number, finely 
roughly striated, sutures impressed, columella re- 
flected, aperture rather small, Hp expanded, light 
brown, streaked and variegated with bright brown, 
sprinkled with white dots. 
Hab. ? 
Dr. Pfeiffer, when in London, attributed this shell to 
the B. lophoicus of D’Orbigny, but it fails to agree with 
the description and figure of that species, and appears to 
be equally distinct from aU others. 
Species 315. (Mus. Benson.) 
Bulimus Bontih!. Bui. testd conico-ovatd, temi, ventri- 
cosd, SMbtUiter umbilkatd, anfractihus guinque, minutie 
oblique striatis, medio tumidis, inflatis, columelld late 
reflexd, labro tenui, expanso, non rejlexo. 
The Bontia Bulimus. Shell conically ovate, thin, ven- 
tricose, finely umbilicated, whorls five in number, 
minutely obliquely striated, swollen and inflated 
round the middle, colmnella broadly reflected, lip 
thin, expanded, not reflected.

Hab. Southern India ; Jerdon. 
An extremely rare species, though described upwards of 
sixty years since by Chemnitz in his Conchyhen Cabinet. 
The specimen here represented, for whieh I am indebted to 
the kindness of Mr. Benson, was collected in Southern 
India by Mr. Jerdon of Madras. 
Species 316. (Mus. Cuming.) 
Bulimus coneusus. Bui. testd oblongo-ovatd, tenuiculd. 
vix umbilicatd, spirce suturis impressis, anfractibus sex, 
convexis, longitudinaliier ci-eberrime plicato-striatis, et 
hie illic indentatis ; fuscescente-albidd. 
The puzzling Bulimus. Shell oblong-ovate, rather 
thin, scarcely nmbiheated, sutures of the spire im- 
pressed, whorls six in number, convex, longitudinally 
very closely plicately striated, and here and there 
indented ; light brownish white. 
Hab. ? 
This shell resembles M. D’Orbigny’s B. Torallyi in 
form, but does not agree with it in the detail of character. 
Species 317. (Mus. Cuming.) 
Bulimus CLuitensis. Bui. testd conico-ovatd, subampliter 
umbilicatd, anfractibus septem, convexis, concentrice 
subrugoso-siriatis ; columelld labroque vix rejlexis ; 
fuscescente castaneo-fusco hie illic strigatd, umbilieo 
nigricante, columelld labroque purpureo-castaneis, ni- 
tentibus. 
The Quito Bulimus. Shell conically ovate, rather 
largely umbilicated, whorls seven in number, convex, 
concentrically rather roughly striated, lip and colu- 
mella scarcely reflected; light-brown, streaked here 
and there with chesnut-brown, umbiheus blackish, 
lip and columella shining purple chesnut. 
Peeiffee, Pro. Zool. Soc., 1847. 
Hab. Quito, Eepublic of Equador. 
The general aspect of this shell is not much unlike that 
of an immature Partulafaba. 
Species 318. (Mus. Cuming.) 
Bulimus monilifeb. Bid. testd subpyramidali-ovatd, 
umbilicatd, anfractibus convexis, Imvibus, columelld 
reflexd, aperturd svbquadratd, labro simplici; opaco- 
albd, fasciis duabus interruptis aurautio-fuscis, valde 
indistinctis, cingulatd, aperturd aurantio-tinetd. 
The necklace-bound Bulimus. Shell somewhat pyra- 
midally ovate, umbilicated, whorls convex, smooth, 
columella reflected, aperture somewhat square, lip 
simple; opake-white, encircled with two very in- 
distinct interrupted orange-brown bauds, aperture 
tinged with orange. 
Eab.- ? 
Indistinctly encircled by two characteristic interrupted 
bands. The aperture is remarkable for the same lateral 
compression as in the B. Guadaloupensis.
