MR. S. IIANLEY ON THE LINNEAN MS. OE THE ' MUSEUM ULRICA.' G3 



" Columella postice replicata est," and the objectionable "obovato-sub," 

 were not in the copy. No figures were cited in the original catalogue. 



C. SPECTRUM. C. caerulescens, flavo-nebulosus, punctis striisque albo- 

 luteis. 



The original description did not comprise those characteristics which are 

 so much at variance with the essentials of the C. spectrum of authors. The 

 following passages were omitted: " gibba, minus arete convoluta" (this 

 replaced "conica"), " Columella postice striata et replicata. Intus testa 

 sub-cserulescens," " mucrone cingulis granulate." 



C. BULLATUS. C. flavus, albo nebulosus. 



The account of the variety, and the " vix tubercnlata," were absent from 

 the manuscript. 



C. GEOGRAPHUS. C. oblongus gibbus corouatus. 



The Rumphian name was the one attached to this species in the written 

 copy. 

 • C. TEBEBELLUM. C. scabcr inermis, striis tuberculatis. 



The synonyms attached to the published details were " Gualt. Test, 

 t. 25. f. L.— Arg. Conch. 1. 16. f. P.— Rumph. t. 33. f. EE." Now these har- 

 monize with both the heading and the description, and clearly indicate the 

 C. Nussatella of the ' Systema ' ! 



The details attached to the published synonyms (which latter belonged to 

 the C. terebellum of the ' Systema,' and to which were joined " Gualt. t. 23. 

 f. O.— Bonan. 3. f. 57.— Pet. Amb. t. 13. f.24," ran as follows : 



" Testa cylindracea, glabra, antice angustior, desinens in spiram attenu- 

 atam, anfractibus 3. Basis truncata, tenuis. Columella non torta, sed in- 

 voluta. Color pallidus." 



CYPREA. 



Testa ovata Isevis involuta. Apertura linearis, utrinque dentata. Spira 

 occultata intra testam. 



C. MAPPA. C. subturbinata characterisata, macula longitudinali den- 

 tata. 



" Pet. Amb. t. 16. f. 2." was an omitted synonym. The terminal remark 

 is an improvement upon the earlier " Noscitur linea utrinque dentata in 

 superficie scripta." 



C. Arabica. C. subturbinata characterisata, macula longitudinali 

 simplici. 



"Denticulis testaceis" and the description of the variety were additions 

 by the hand of Linnaeus. 



C. Argus. C. subturbinata subcylindrica, maculis annularibus. 



The synonyms of Petiver (t. 97. f. 6) and Bonanni (f. 263), quoted in 

 the ' Systema, ' were also present in the MS., where " 2. s. 1 " was in the 

 place of " duabus." The " pallidis " was a misprint for the written " pal- 

 lidae." The account of the variety was subsequent to the copy. 



C. TESTUDINARIA. C. obtusa cyliudrica, extremitatibus depressis. 



" Pet. Amb. t. 8. f. 7." was an unprinted synonym. 



C. CARNEOLA. C. subturbinata pallida, fasciis incarnatis.
