right, and by the umbilical crevice, of which the depth and 

 length are due to the deviation of the last whorl (Jous- 

 seaume ) . 



Possibly a form of P. sennaaricnsis, but if the characters 

 described are constant, it would appear to be readily distin- 

 guishable.

Shell perforate, oblong-turrited, thin, very lightly striatu- 

 late, little shining, brownish-corneous. Spire subregularly 

 tapering, apex obtuse. Whorls 7, convex, the last about one-

 lipped within. Length 4, diam. 1.5 mm., aperture iy 3 mm. 

 long (Pfr.).

Differs from P. cccnopictus chiefly by its smaller size; 

 whether it is specifically distinct appears doubtful, as are

 been figured, my figures being copied from Jickeli.
