 Fig. 449. B. Sowerby of tbe original specimen jn Mr. Cuming's col- 

 lection. It will be noticed that tbe coloring of this speci- 

 men does not agree with tlie description. The latter shows 

 the species much more nearly related to B. Dormani and 

 Marielinus than would be suspected from the figure. 

 B. Fioridanus. ]\^p, jj, Hemphill -has lately collected (1884) in the vicinity 

 of Charlotte Harbor, Florida, specimens which I refer to B. Fioridanus, 

 One of these is here figured (Fig. 449). 

 Animal not observed.

A Cuban species, specimens of which were found by Dr. J. Gr. Cooper 

 in the Florida Subregiou in Southern Florida ; one of them is drawn in 

 Fig. 450. I have also received it from near the Miami Kiver. 



The shell is very thin. It may readily be distinguished fromi>. Dor- 

 mani. It is more cylindrical in outline, its bands of color are revolving-, 

 not longitudinal. 



Jaw short, boad, strongly arched above, moderately so below; ends 

 attenuated, blunt; anterior surface with coarse longitudinal strite and 

 with rib like processes, scarcely elevated, but denticulating the cutting 

 edge. 



Liugual membrane like that of Dormani,
