Hah. Andes of Columbia, near Merida. 
The peculiar conical form of this shell gives it the 
appearance of immature growth.

funde umbilicatd, anfractibus sex, leevibus, columelld

The dotted Bblimbs. Shell ovately conical, rather 
deeply umbilicated, whorls six in number, smooth,

Hah. Bundelkhund and Southern India (on plants) ; 
Benson, Jerdon. 
The name given to this species in manuscript by 
Mr. Benson was solatus, signifying freckled, not solutus as 
printed by Dr. Pfeiflfer. Manuscript names ought not, 
however, to be quoted as synonymes; a private name 
is scarcely open to public criticism. 
Species 453. (Mus. Cuming.) 
Bblimbs pemphigodes. Bui. testd globoso-conicd, ven- 
tricoso-injiatd, tenumimd, minuti umbilicatd, spird

labro simplici, acuto ; pallide virescente-stramined, dia- 
pliand, epidermide tenui opacd fasciatim indutd.

B. vesiculosus by Dr. Jonas in manuscript. 
Species 454. (Mus. Cuming.) 
Bblimbs irregularis. Bui. testd ovato-oblongd, subam- 
pliter umbilicatd, anfractibus sex, ruguloso-striatis, 
suturis impressis, columelld late reflexd, aperturd 
oblongd, labro simplici ; carneo-fuscescente.

largely lunbihcated, whorls six in number, rather
