Shell an inch long, and ten lines broad, white, with a broad 

 reddish brown band in the middle of the whirls, and has 

 much moie the appearance of a Garden Snail than of a 

 Trochus ; 1 am not acquainted with either, but from the 

 figure it appears to me that both this and the preceding 

 species, should be placed among the Helices.
