 Shell two, or two inches and a half long, and nearly three- 

 fourths as broad, of a pale chestnut-colour, and the inside 

 white ; the transverse ribs are made scaly by the crossings of 

 the longituduial wrinkles. Bruguiere has described two shells 

 under the names of B. Narval, and B. Vnicorne, which 

 have a subulate tooth like that of B. Monodon, and the dif- 

 ference is so small that it may be doubted whether they are 

 more than varieties ; the former is said to be smooth, with 

 only obsolete transverse lines, and the other thick, smooth, 

 and somewhat angulated transversely. 



HAUSTRUM. 54. Shell transversely ribbed, and the 

 spire short ; pillar oblique ; outer lip crenu- 

 lated and striated within.
