One of the specimens of the last named locality is remarkable by its peculiar colour- 

 pattern, consisting of redbrown spiral lines on the lirae, 7 in number on the penultimate whorl, 

 on a pale ground, as the shape and sculpture are however the same as in the other specimens, 

 I think it deserves even no varietal name. The specimens from Stat. 302 (216M.) are dead 

 shells. The radula has about 63 rows of teeth; the median tooth (M) is broad with a concave 

 anterior margin, with the characteristic lappets on each sicle ; the convex postenor margin, has 

 3 cusps, of which the median one is the largest; the laterals (1) have 2 strong teeth, of which 

 the distal one is by far the strongest, it is in proportion shorter but thicker than in P. scnticosus 

 as figured by Troschel (Gebiss der Schnecken, Vol. II, PI. 8, fig. 1).
