MR. S. HAIfLET ON THE LINNEAN MS. OP THE ' MUSEUM ULEICiE.' 61 



" Bonan. 3. f. 123" was an additional synonym; the "versus basin 

 transverse striata," and " subtruncata, apice prominulo," with the account 

 of the variety, were not found in the MS. 



C. iMPERiALis. C. pictus fasciis flavis cingulisque linearibus albo 

 fuscoque articulatis. 



The "obconica" was simply "conica"; there was no description of 

 the spire. 



C. LiTERATUs. C. conicus albuspunctis fuscis. 



The spire was not described : the reference to d'Argenville was I, not Q. 



C. VIRGO. C, striis convexis Isevibus, basi cserulescente. 



" Longa " was originally " magna " : the erroneous reference to Gualtieri 

 was not inserted. 



C. CAPiTANEUs. C. conicus, basi fiisca, spirae anfractibus adscenden- 

 tibus. 



At least two species were confused ; but, from the heading, it is clear that 

 C generalis, rather than C. capitaneus, was the typical form : the latter 

 was the variety g. 



The V in the reference to Rumphius was a misprint for the written Y : 

 " Gualt. t. 20. f. G." and " Pet. Gaz. t. 27. f. O. " were additional syno- 

 nyms. " Notata hturis undatis fuscis " was not in the manuscript. 



C. PRiNCEPs. C. flavus, lineis fusco-purpureis longitudinalibus ramosis. 



" Sub " preceded " convexa." 



C. Ammiralis. C basi punctato-scaber. 



After " summus " was written " cingulo albo " ; after " ordinarius," 

 " cingulo nullo " ; Seba was not quoted ; " pruniformis " was the earlier 

 reading for "conico -convexa, pyriformis." The variety a. was described 

 as " circumdata lineis numerosis albis nigro articulatis, quarum quae cylin- 

 drum distinguit a spira latior maculis albis nigrisque majoribus alternan- 

 tibus." The variety g. was not originally present in the catalogue, but was 

 interpolated by Linnaeus. " Haec pretiosissima ut vendita fuerit 500 flo- 

 renis " was the final remark. 



C. NOBiLis. C. subcylindricus laevis glaber, spira acuta argute cana- 

 liculata. 



" Cacumen " was a misprint for the written " acumen." 



C. Genuanus. C pictus cingulis linearibus albo fuscoque articulatis. 



A strange confusion took place between the details of C. senator and 

 C Genuanus. The published description belonged to the former, the syno- 

 nym to the latter, and should have preceded the following brief description : 



"Testa conica, pallida, glauca, oblongiuscula. Lineae 19 transversae 

 fusco-nigrae s. purpurascentes albo interruptae, alternae saepe angustiores. 

 Spira subconica, obtusa." 



C. GLAUCUS. C. emarginatus, basi striatus, spirae inermis anfractibus 

 convexis. 



C. MONACHUS. C. gibbus acutus, fusco-caerulescente nebulosus, basi 



striatus. 

 Bonanni was not quoted in the written copy.
