Mr. Guppy's otherwise good figure does not show the marked 

 retraction of the lines of growth at the shoulder, which is one of the 

 important characters of C. stenostoma. 



Length 74, diam. 40 mm. ; a larger, imperfect shell has a diameter 

 of 4.3 mm. , 



Conus furvoides Gabb. Plate XX, flg.l. 



Conus furi'oides Gabb. Tr. Amer. Philos. Soc. xv, 187.3, p. 232. 



A narrow species, having a prominent ridge projecting above the 

 suture of the last 4 whorls. Spiral striae on the spire are wanting 

 or very faint. There are a few weak spirals towards the base.

This was originally described and figured from a very young ex- 

 ample. It attains the size and has the form of C. consohrinus, but 

 differs by lacking tubercles on the spire. The upper whorls have 

 a smooth, sharp carina projecting above the sutures, becoming 

 blunt on the last 2 or 3 whorls in adults. Above the angle there 

 are very fine spiral striae. Lower half or more of the last whorl is 

 spirally striate, some of the spirals bearing granules. Young shells 

 have more granulose spirals, as usual in this genus.

The spire is striate, as in C. haytensis but the early whorls are 

 not nodose above the suture. The granulation occupies from one- 

 third to the whole of the last whorl. Ordinarily there are several 

 nearly smooth, smaller spiral threads between the beaded spirals, 

 but in some examples these secondary threads are as large as the
