EURYC.tLON. 347 



Diameter, '48; length, -80? of an inch. 



Observations. — I onl}' received two specimens of this interesting 

 species, and neither l)eing perfect at the apex, tlie number of whorls 

 cannot be ascertained ; probably there are not more than Yig. 658. 

 five. Both these specimens have two small, obscure 

 bands on the inside of the upper part of the outer lip. 

 One has dark brown marks inside and is brown at the 

 bottom of the columella. One is much darker on the out- 

 side than the otliei*. The large, irregular nodes or bosses 

 Are three on the body-whorl of one specimen and five on the other, 

 they are placed on the shoulder of tlie whorls. The aperture is nearly 

 two-thirds the length of the shell. — Lea.

Description. — Shell rhomboidally ovate, covered with an olivaceous- 

 yellowish epidermis, beneath which usually appear two purplish bands 

 encircling the body- whorl ; spire short; whorls about four, the upper 

 ones much eroded, the upper portion of the last whorl is shouldered 

 by a series of large, obtuse and irregular tubercles, about four or five 

 in number, there is also a slight tendency towards thickening in the 

 ventral portion of the whorl ; aperture ovate, eflTuse above and below ; 

 right lip thin; columella lip usually stained with purple above and 

 rig^659. below, reflected so as partially to cover a deep, umbilical 

 depression, which, however, is continued towards the 

 base, forming a channel much resembling that of the um- 

 bilical region in Xatica. 



Habitat. — Holstein River, near Knoxville, Tennessee, 

 where it was collected by our associate, 0. W. Morris, 

 and also by Mr. Anthony. 



Diameter, -63 (16 millira.) ; length, -83 of an inch (21 raillim.). 

 Length of aperture, 'Gl (IG millim.); breadth of aperture, -31 of an 

 inch (8 millira.). 



Observations. — Allied to A. salebrosa, hut has the tubercles of its 

 last whorl larger, more obtuse and irregular and fewer in number.
