" This species differs from all the allied ones, by the broad flames, 

 and the fine rose-color of the aperture ; this last peculiarity is also 

 found in A. suspectus Martens, A. annce Martens and in the next 

 species, but they differ in so many other respects that they may be 

 easily recognized. 



" The measurements taken from specimens from Massoe, show that 

 they vary in form. In nearly all the specimens the flames of the 

 upper whorls are traversed by a narrow zone of the ground color ; 

 the yellow color of the last whorl is more or less bright. 



" A juvenile specimen from Massoe has the space near the umbi- 

 licus rose-color, with two brown spiral bands beneath the periphery. 

 This and two adult specimens from the same locality, are in the 

 finest condition, the other are more or less bleached " (Schepm.). 4
