 Very abundant and well-developed. Young specimens exhibit 

 the peripheral armature of spines in a very marked degree, and 

 the spines are frequently noticeable in shells of a considerable 

 size.

 Very common. Previously recorded in Great Britain only 

 by Mr. J. Wright from the shore-sand of Dog's Bay, Connemara, 

 and from off Rathlin Island ; but he informs me that it is 

 generally distributed around the Irish coast.
