Fasciolaria sinuata Gabb 



Fasciolaria sinuata Gabb, W. M., Geology of California, 

 Palaeontology, vol. 1, p. 101, 1864. 



Plate 11, figures 3a, 3b 

 This species is slightly more robust in young individuals 

 than in older forms. The characteristic lirations in this species 

 can only be discerned as a rule by breaking a specimen so that 

 the spire portion of the columella can be examined, as the lira- 

 tions on the outer lip are lacking. This form is very abundant 

 at the type locality of the Tejon. 



Conus calif orniana (Conrad)

Vohitilithes californiana Conrad, Pacific R. R. Report, vol. 

 5, p. 322, 1855. 



Not Conns remondii Gabb, Rept. Geol. Surv. of California, 

 Palaeontology, vol. 2, p. 122, 1869. 



The specimen figured is without much doubt Conrad's form. 

 Gabb described another Conus as C. remondii and placed this 

 species in synonymy. Gabb's collections from the type Tejon 

 were evidently not as exhaustive as he thought as he failed to 

 find other forms which Conrad described. 



This species has fewer nodes than C. remondii (See Plate 

 11, figure 7) and its spire height is greater. It differs from 

 C. cozvlitzensis Weaver (See Plate 11, figure 8) in having a 

 shorter spire and a lesser number of nodes. The space between 

 the suture and shoulder of this form is nearly flat while the 

 corresponding space on C. cozvlitzensis is decidedly concave. 



Conus weaveri, new species 

 Plate 11, figure 10 



Shell small, wide, short, with six whorls; decoration con- 

 sisting of numerous spiral lines most prominent on lower part 

 of body-whorl. 



This species is easily distinguished from C. hornii (See 

 Plate 11, figures 9a, 9b, 9c) by its greater breadth and by its 

 marked spiral lines. Its lack of nodes renders it easily separ- 

 able from C. cowlitzensis, C. californiana, and C. remondii. 



Dimensions : — Length, 15.5 ; width of body- whorl, 9.5 mm.
