272 DR JOHNSTON'S DESCRIPTIVE CATALOGUE OF THE 



striatus, Mont. Test. Brit. Sup. 136. Cingula pulchra, Johnston 

 in Edin. New Phil. Journ. Juno 1828, p. 80. 



Hob. Berwick Bay, very rare. 



This differs from the preceding in being broader in proportion to its length, 

 in having two rows of oblong spots on the body and second whorls, in 

 being marked spirally with faint impressed spiral strise, and in the whorls 

 being divided by a deeper suture. I have referred the species to the 

 Turbo semistriatus of Montagu on the authority of my valued friend 

 Mr Alder. 



4. R. parva, shell conical, light-brown, with six rounded whorls 

 ribbed across, the ribs smooth, obtuse, and rather numerous ; 

 aperture roundish, with thin and slightly reflected lips. Length 

 two lines. Turbo parvus, Mont. Test. Brit. 310. Cingula parva, 

 Flem. Brit. Anim. 306. 



Hob. Berwick Bay, rare. 



The ribs are strong, equidistant, and scarcely interrupted at the suture, but 

 they terminate abruptly on the body-whorl in a faint spiral ridge. The 

 lower half of the body is smooth, and marked with a brown band. 



5. E. alba, shell conical, whitish, banded with brown, smooth, glossy, 

 ribbed across the whorls, of which there are six, the apical ones 

 plain ; aperture roundish-oval with a slightly everted lip. Length

Mr Forbes remarks that this is probably a variety of R. parva.

 bands on the body winding up the spire at the suture; whorls 

 nine or ten, flat, scarcely defined ; aperture ovate, pointed above,

the same colour. The inner lip is reflected on the pillar, and continued 



round to the outer, as in other Rissose.
