A small specimen (No. 4988), slightly worn, and showing the striae of 

 growth on the test in one or two places, agrees with d'Orbiguy's type 

 in whorl-shape and general appearance. At a diameter of 70 mm. 

 the thickness = 45 mm., which is less than the thickness of d'Orbigny 's 

 example, but slightly more than that of N. splendens, Blanford, the 

 type of which, however, is crushed. Speugler united the two species,, 

 which may be open to objections, but since the specimen here 

 described is not well preserved, it also is included in d'Orbigny's well- 

 known G-ault species. 



Foord * described the species in detail, and was inclined to separate 

 the Indian from the European forms on account of their greater 

 whorl-thickness. Spengler f has since created the var. indica of N. 

 rlt'iiifiifiinii* for the later Indian form, but the present example is 

 much closer to the European Gault form than to the Trichinopoly 

 species.
