Onginal description.—"Testa (pro gener'e) magna, sub- cyUndraceo-fusiformis, apicem versus cyJiudracea, albido-cornea, unicolor, tenuis, subdiaphana, baud riinata, lineis elevatis vix continuis et (prsesertim in anfractu ultimo, ubi remotiores fiunt) oblique corrugata. Anfractibus 10-12, sutura profunda et minime crenata divisi ; apicales unice convex), subsequales; csteri convexi, et satis rapide crescentes; penultimus major, altior; ultimus curvatus, verticaliter descendens, infra suturam. Fig. 115.—Clausilia iuba. subiiiargiuatam subcoarctatus, denique insigniter dilatatus, basi rotundata nequaquam cristatus. Apertura permagna, soluta, porrecta, subcordato-rotundata, undique patentissima. Peristoma continuum, late expansum ; lamella siipera conspicua, angusta, areuatim subverticalis; lamella infera adjaceiis, obliqua, magisque profunda; plica subcolumellaris parvula, verticalis ; plica palatalis (si sit ulla) labrum baud attingens; lunella opacitate conspicua. " Long. IJ- poll. [=31-5 mm.]." {Hanley.) Hah. Burma : "Upper Salvveen Valley, Shan States {Fedden). Apparently a rare species. It resembles an exaggerated C. masoni with wing-like margins of the peristome, but the sub- columellar fold does not reach so far and is placed lower on the eolumellar mai-gin. The lunella is almost united to the palatal plica above and to the subcoluraellar fo
