The Clatjsilia-like Bulimus. Shell elongately turre- 
ted, somewhat cylindrical, sinistral, compressly um- 
bilicated, whorls nine in number, obscurely ribbed 
round the upper part, longitudinally very closely and 
very minutely roughly striated, columella vertically 
reflected, aperture somewhat square, lip simple ; 
mouse-colour. 
Eab. Andes of Caxamarca, Peru ; W. Lobb. 
Very like a Clausilia in form, and of a silken aspect, 
arising out of the very close and minute developement of 
longitudinal striae. 
Species 624. (Mus. Cuming.) 
Bulimus depstus. Bnl. testd subacuminato-ovatd, com- 
presse umbilicatd, anfractibus septeni, rotundatis, Icevi- 
biis, SMperive depressiusculis, mmuie plicato-crenulatis, 
columelld rejlexd, aperturd parviusculd, labro simplici; 
intus extusque ustulato-fuscd. Me illic saturatiore 
strigatd. 
The tanned Bulimus. Shell subacuminately ovate, 
compressly umbilicated, 'whorls seven in niunber, 
slightly depressed round the upper part, minutely 
plicately crenulated, columella reflected, aperture 
rather small, lip simple ; light scorehed brown within 
. and without, streaked here and there of a darker 
colour. 
Hob. Chachapoyas, Alto-Peru ; W. Lobb. 
A thin shell approaching in form and colouring to the 
Bulimus mix, from which it differs in being of a lighter 
structure and having a more rounded aperture. 
Species 525. (Mus. Cuming.) 
Bulimus nigbopileatus. Bui. testd acuminato-ovatd, 
subampliter umbilicatd, anfractibus septem, convexis, 
obtuse subrugoso-striatis, columelld verticaliter rejlexd. 
aperturd ovali, labro simplici; albidd, basin versus 
obsolete fusco-fasciatd, apice nigro. 
The black-tipped Bulimus. Shell acuminately ovate, 
rather largely umbilicated, whorls seven in number, 
convex, obtusely somewhat roughly striated, colu- 
mella vertically reflected, aperture oval, hp simple ; 
whitish, obsoletely banded with brown towards the 
base, apex black. 
Eab. Chachapoyas, Alto-Peru ; W. Lobb. 
It is probable from the faintly banded appearance of 
this shell, that this is but the pale variety of a darker 
type. 
Species 626. (Mus. Cuming.) 
Bulimus foveolatus. Bui. testd oblongo-ovatd, tenui- 
culd, subventricosd, baud umbilicatd, ad apicem oblusd, 
anfractibus qidnque ad sex, convexis, longitudinaliter

versus peculiariter foveolatis, suturis rudibus, anfraclu 
ultimo obliqub descendente, columelld laid, depressius- 
culd, obliqub recedente, aperturd ohlongo-ovali, labro 
subincrassato, vix rejlexo ; intense olivaceo-brunned, 
infra suturas pallide unifasciatd, suturis albidis, colu- 
melld labroque ccendescente-albis, aperturce fauce iri-

The pitted Bulimus. Shell oblong-ovate, rather thin, 
slightly ventriedse, not umbilieated, obtuse at the 
apex, whorls five to six in number, convex, longitu- 
dinally obtusely plicately striated, sphally engraved

beneath the sutures, peeidiarly pitted towards the 
apex, sutures rude, last whorl descending obliquely,

Eab. Vitoe, near Sarma, Alto-Peru ; W. Lobb. 
This is the speeies which Dr. Pfeiffer has assigned to 
the Bulimus Mahogani, of Sowerby, Conch. lUus. f. 59, 
of which I can find no description or tidings.
