ovata ; labro continue, acuto, pallido, vix everso ; fauce livido. 

 Long, -i, lat. ^ poll. Hob. Terra del Fuego. 



Has the general characters of small specimens of L. tetiehrosa, 

 and its structure and color give it somewhat the aspect of a fresh 

 water shell. 



LiTTORiNA ACUMINATA. Testa parva, solida, nitida, elongata, 

 conico-turrita, livida obscure flammulata interdum maculis albidis 

 articulatis cincta: spira acuta, anfr. 6, planulatis, ultimo suban- 

 gulato ; sutura profunda ; apertura ovata ; columella nitida, mori- 

 tincta. Long. y%, lat. -^ poll. Hab. Mangsi Island. 



A small, much elongated species in the style of L. lincata, 

 known by its regular grooving, and its mulberry-tinted columella. 



LiTTORiNA PLENA. Tcsta parva, solida, ovata, cinereo-oliva- 

 cea, interdum albido reticulata, striis spiralibus insculpta : spira 

 parva, acuta, anfr. 5, ultimo globoso, subangulato ; sutura pro- 

 funda : apertura parva, dilatata et angulata ; columella planulata, 

 rufa, albido marginata ; fauce castanea, albo-zonato. Long. ^, 

 lat. -1 poll. Hah. San Francisco. 



The globoseness of the last whorl is remarkable. It is less 

 elongated than L. acuminata, and smaller, more polished, and 

 with a smaller aperture than L. scutulata. 



Stilifer acicula. Testa minuta, imperforata, elongato-subula- 

 ta,acutissima, ad apicem integerrimaet lente distorta, nitidissima, 

 livido-lactea interdum flavescente : spira anfr. ad 12 planulatis ; 

 sutura lucida : apertura angusta, ovalis ; labro simplici,antrorsum 

 arcuato, antice evoluto ; columella vix arcuata. Long, f, lat. yV* 

 Hah. Fejee Islands, in Holothuria. 



A much more delicate species than any one of Stilifer or 

 Eulima described. The little Phasianella stilifera, Turt. {Stili- 

 fer iurtoni, Brod.) is somewhat like it. S. suhulatus, from the 

 West Indies, is much less slender. 



Solarium egenum. Testa parva, ovato-conica, exalbida, sub- 

 margaritacea : spira anfr. 6 convexis, liris acutis 4 cinctis, posterior- 

 ibus granulatis ; basis convexiuscula, perforata ; umbilico scalari- 

 formi, ad ambitum acuto, crenulato : apertura circularis ; labiis 

 fere continuis. Diam. y^^y, alt. ^ poll. 



The characters of this shell do not bring it strictly within the 

 typical form of Solarium.^ but its facias is rather that of Solarium
