Bahamas : New Providence, on the south side, about opposite 

 Nassau, in pine woods with some palms, about half a mile from the 

 shore (Maynard). 



This species differs from C. eximium in the thinner lip and pari- 

 etal callus, and in completely wanting the peculiar internal ridge and 

 gutter described in that species. Mr. W. Bendall collected speci- 

 mens varying from heavily striped to pure white (pi. 38, figs. 82, 83, 

 84), the intermediate specimens having sparse livid streaks on a 

 whitish ground, the base fleshy or bluish. Figure 85 is from a 

 specimen received from Mr. Maynard, representing his form no. 1. 



It has finer, closer riblets than C- ylans varium, which differs 

 moreover in the straight parietal ledge. C. martensi is more finely 

 striate.

 penult, whorl, much weaker on the base. Whorls 10-10^, very 

 slightly convex. Aperture dark purplish-brown inside ; peristorae 

 rather narrowly reflexed, white; parietal callus thin and translucent;.
