 maica, Brazil, Cape of Good Hope, 8cc. Favanne. 

 Shell from two to four lines long, and almost twice as broad, 

 and varies very much in its colour and markings ; some have 

 a white transverse spotted or sub-reticulated belt, and others 

 are ornamented with oblique undulated rays, but under all 

 these different appearances it is distinguishable by its flat- 

 tened form, and by a somewhat vitreous excrescence which 

 covers the center of the base. Gmelin has mistaken the 

 Linnasan Buccinum neriteum, which it somewhat resembles, 

 for a Variety of this species. 



GRANDiNATUs. 79. Shell conical, and granulated 

 and tuberculated in transverse rows ; base 

 convex, and the outer lip double and grooved.

LABEO. 80. Shell ovate, with transverse granulated

 ture silvery, and the outside double and
