Olivella fabula Marratt. Thes. Conch., IV, pi. 350, f. 420, 421. 



The specimens collected by Mr. Stearns while agreeing })erfectly 

 with typical fahxda in the peculiar parietal callus, are somewhat 

 stouter, less attenuated above and fuller in the body than a speci- 

 men oi fabula before me from Mr. Marratt. The basal callus is white, 

 or in one shell slightly brownish. Alt. 11'5, diam. 5 mm. 



I believe this quite distinct from 0. fulgurata.
