BUCCINUM. 597 



Lister Conch, t 998. f. 63.? 



Inhabits the shore at Weymouth. Pennant. 



This species, of which I beUeve only a single specimen has 

 been dredged up at Weymouth, is thus described, " Shell 

 size of a large hazel nut, ovated, smooth, whitish, girdled 

 with from two to four bands of brown spots; the upper part 

 set round with two series of tubercles ; upper volutions 

 smooth ; aperture large, sub-oval ; outer lip slightly dentat- 

 ed ; inner lip rugose and granulated." Mr. Montagu says 

 that foreign specimens exceed two inches in length. Dr. 

 Pulteney considered this shell to be B. porcatum of Solan- 

 der, and from the MSS. of the latter Naturalist, in Sir Jo- 

 seph Banks's Library, it appears that he considered Lister's 

 figure 63. t. 998. to be this species.
