the last wlioil, and three oi' lour on the upper whorls. Aperture: — Right 

 insertion slightly nionntino' mIxivp the plane of the suture; the sinus a 

 large U-sliaped spout, below wliich is an incipient vaiix ; beyond the latter 

 the free limb of the outer lip bends inwai'ds ; within this lip are sometimes 

 a few entering j)lieations ; inner lip a sheet of callus, thin above, but with 

 a thickened margin below; canal short, expanding, and open. Length 

 9"5 mm., breadth .So mm. 



On Hrst acquaintance I considered this to be a variety of FilodriUit 

 fricariinttii, but more nuiterial convinces me that it is distinct, because of 

 a naiTower protoconch, and tiuer, more numerous spirals.

Shell small, rather solid, turreted, subcylindrical. Colour unifoi'm buff. 

 Whorls rounded, six, inclusive of the bulbous protoconch. Sculpture: — 

 The flattened and conspicuous fasciole carries three or four small spiral 

 threads ; the remaining spirals are sharp cords, narrower than their 

 interspaces, larger and wider apart on the periphery, about fifteen on the 

 bod}' whorl and five on the penultimate ; radial riblets, so faint as to 

 scarcely appear in the intercostal furrovps, form beads on these spirals; 

 these riblets are most developed on the fourth and fifth whorls, and 

 vanish gi'adually on the last whorl. Aperture open, sinus wide and deep ; 

 inner lip with a thin callus; canal short and broad. Length 7'5 mm., 

 breadth 3 mm.
