quarry on the lop of the East T^omond hill, Fifeshh'e, and 

 named it B. hrevis, pi. IV, f. 24.* It differs from the ordinary 

 varicty in being much shorter, and greatly more inflated in pro- 

 portion to its size, with the apex more acute.

Shell subconic, oblong, of a dull rusty or reddish-brown, 

 longitudinally, obliquely, and irregularly wrinkled, or striated, 

 somewhat like shagreen when viewed through a strong lens; 

 body a little more than a third of the shell in length ; spire 

 consisting of six nearly flat-sided volutions, well divided by the 

 suture line, terminating in a rather obtuse apex ; aperture 

 subovate ; outer lip reflected, and of a chocolate-brown colour ; 

 pillar hp reflected on the columella, forming a subumbilicus 

 behind it. Length somewhat more than five-eighths of an 

 inch ; and a quarter of an inch in diameter. 



Found at Lackham, in Wiltshire, by Colonel Montagu ; met 

 with sparingly in the debris of Salisbury Crags, at Edinburgh ; 

 and I found it at Castle Willan, near Maryborough, Queen's 

 County; and in the debris of the mountains of Mourne, 

 Ireland. 



The young shells of this, like those of the preceding species, 

 are trochiform ; and the adult is liable to considerable variety 

 in colour.
