aperture rather small ; pale ash horn-colour, orna- 
mented with darker stripes. 
Pfeiffer, Monog. Helic. viv. vol. ii. p. 258. 
Hah. Island of St. John, Porto ltico. 
There is a peculiarity of form, as well as of colour, 
iu this species. 
Species 94. (Mus. Cuming.) 
Achatina curvii.abris. Achat, testa fusiformi, spird 
acuminata, anfractibus octo, creberrime costulato-stria- 
tis, ad suturas marginalia, columella contortd, Iasi rnb- 
produetd et tmncatd, labro medio impresso ; pelluci-

The curved-lip Achatina. Shell fusiform, spire acu- 
minated, whorls eight in number, very closely sculp- 
tured with rib-like strim, margined at the sutures, 
columella twisted, somewhat produced and truncated

Pfeiffer, ( Glandina ,) Pro. Zool. Soc., 1845, p. 137. 
Hab. Jamaica ; Gosse. 
Belonging to the group typified by the A. leucozonias, 
the, shell is marked in like manner by white streaks depo- 
sited at intervals by the lip after the fashion of varices.

Species 96. (Mus. Cuming.) 
Achatina Foncki. Achat, testa ovato-conicd, subunibiU- 
catd, tenui, anfractibus sex, subrotundatis, striatulis, 
nitidis, anfractu ultimo lira callosa, aperturam intrasi- 
te, prope medium munito, columella laineilalo-truiicatd ; 
pellucido-albd, diaphand. 
Funck’s Achatina. Shell ovately conical, slightly um- 
bilicated, thin, whorls six in number, rather rounded, 
very delicately striated, shining, last whorl furnished 
about the middle with a callous plait entering the 
aperture, columella flatly truncated; transparent 
white, diaphanous. 
Pfeiffer, Pro. Zool. Soc., 1847, p. 232. 
Hab< Province of Merida, New Granada. 
A very transparent wax-like shell, intermediate between 
Bulimus and Achatina ; the columella, although truncated, 
is slightly reflected back forming a small umbilicus. On 
the middle of the body-whorl is a very characteristic 
callous ridge, entering the aperture. 
Species 97. (Mus. Cuming.) 
Achatina lamellata. Achat, testa ovato-conicd, tenui, 
subventricosa, minute ambilicatd, anfractibus sex, hie 
illic sublamellalo-striatis, columella subreflexd et trun- 
catd, lira parvd callosa, obscura, prope medium intran- 
te, munitd; pellucido-albd, diaphand. 
The lamellated Achatina. Shell ovately conic, thin, 
rather ventricose, minutely umbilicated, whorls six in 
number, here and there slightly lamellately striated ; 
columella a little reflected aud truncated, furnished 
with an obscure callous ridge entering near the middle; 
transparent white, diaphanous. 
Potiez aud Michaud, Gal. de Douai, p. 128. pi. 11. 
f. 7 and 8. 
Hab. New Lima; Lattre. 
This species, it will be seen, differs little from the pre- 
ceding except in being rather more ventricose. The 
locality, to judge from analogy, is equally doubtful. 
Species 98. (Mus. Cuming.) 
Achatina conifera. Achat, testa pgramidali-couicd, an- 
fractibus octo, subangustis, rotundalis, longitudinaliter 
obscure slriatis, nitidis, columelld brevi, arcuata, con- 
tortd, attenuate truncatd, aperturd parvd; fusco- 
corned. 
The conical Acila-iina. Shell pyramidally conical, 
whorls eight in number, rather narrow, rounded, 
longitudinally obscurely striated, shining, columella 
short, arched, twisted, attenuately truncated, aperture 
small ; brown-horny. 
Ferussac, ? 
Hab. Juan Fernandez. 
Distinguished by its small aperture and by the elevated 
growth of the spire.
