 as broad, of a whitish or pale yellowish brown colour, with 

 a pur{)lish brown band on the upper part of the body-whirl, 

 which extends along the suture and more distinctly marks 

 the divisions of the other whirls ; the body-whirl has also 

 most commonly from one to five other smaller bands at the 

 base ; it is distinguished by its flattish upper surface, and 

 capacious umbilicus below.

Shell about half an inch long, and three-quarters of an inch 

 broad, of a yellowish white colour, with several small pur- 

 plish brown or chestnut bands, which are frequently inter- 

 rupted, especially towards the summit of the spire ; the base 

 has generally one broad band and several concentric lines ; 

 M'lth a glass the whole surface is seen to be minutely stri- 

 ated both longitudinally and transversely ; the three upper 

 whirls of the spire are but little elevated, and the umbilicus 

 is nearly closed by the overlapping of the pillar-lip. 



PISANA. 58. Shell umbilicated, with six whirls, 

 and the spire rather produced ; aperture sub- 

 lunated, with a narrow rib round the inner 

 margin of the outer-lip.
