180 PHASIANELLA. 



sharply defined fascia of white and brown flammules, and a similar 

 one encircling umbilical region. Alt. 16 mill. 



Australia. 



No narrow revolving lines are noticed in the description of this 

 species, nor ar.e they visible in the figure. There are however before 

 me specimens which have all the characters of this species, plus 

 the capillary lines, and I am inclined to believe it a variety of the 

 P. variegata. 



P. FLAMMULATA Phil., 1848. PI. 39a, fig. 9. 



"The shell is jjretty solid, long conoidal, very smooth and very 

 shining, and consists of 6 whorls, which are strongly convex and of 

 which the last is about three-sevenths the entire length. The aper- 

 ture is ovate, [eiforniig] angular and with a little canal above, 

 caused by a thickening upon the inner wall, which stops just short 

 of the insertion of the outer lip; the coloration, in the numerous 

 examples which! have seen, is very constant; it consists of a yellow- 

 ish ground-color, merging into olive, with wavy milk-white flames 

 which are anteriorly bounded with dark, posteriorly becoming lost 

 in the ground-color, and still finer undulating parallel lines showing 

 upon the ground color, as well as spiral rows of milk-wkite points, 

 which are not connected by brown lineo as in P. lineolata and P. 

 splendida. Alt. 12 mill. Ped Sea. 



Philippi's somewhat circumstantial description is above translated. 

 The italics are my own. I have seen no specimens of this species, 

 and it is noticed in neither of the three monographies. 



P. AMCENULA Phil., 1853. PI. 39o, fig. 11. 



Shell long-ovate, somewhat conic, acute, imperforate, rather thin, 

 translucent, smooth, shining; whorls 6, slightly convex, the last not 

 perceptibly rounded, but with an indication of a carina, somewhat 

 over half the total length; upon a pale flesh-colored ground are 

 numerous spiral bright red lines, punctate with white, and longi- 

 tudinal wavy flames, which are dark-bordered toward the suture. 



Alt. 8 mill. Australia. 



This species, like the last, has not been seen by me, nor noticed 

 by authors. My description and figure are taken from the original 

 ones.
