70 CONUS. 
whorl closely encircled throughout with close ridged strize ; white,

Borneo, Philippines, Australia, New Caledonia. 
The peculiar ridged strive form the most constant character of 
this species. The synonymsare rather numerous, as the form is 
very inconstant; they include C. maculatus, Sowb. (fig. 56), a 
short, broad shell, possibly O. ardisiacus, Kiener, C. Nove- 
Hollandiz, A. Ad. (fig. 57), C. Jukesti, Reeve (fig. 58), another 
short-spired and broad-shouldered form, C. Cabriti, Bernardi 
(fig. 59), and C. compressus, Sowb. (fig. 60), an immature shell. 
C. anemone is related to C. rosaceus, Chemn., in its strive and 
the usual form of the spire and body-whorl, and it is possible 
that they are specifically identical, although differing in the 
pattern of coloring. 
C. cocceus, Reeve. Pl. 22, figs. 62, 63. 
Shell turbinated, rather stout towards the upper part, a little 
rounded, transversely very finely ridged, interstices between the

Length, 1-2-1°5 inches. 
Australia, Philippines. 
C. decrepitus, Kiener (fig. 63), appears to be a color-variety, 
as determined by Reeve, Sowerby and Weinkauff. 
C. cerinus, Reeve. PI. 22, fig. 64. 
Shell somewhat stoutly ovate, rather thick, smooth, base pecu- 
liarly granosely ridged, spire three-grooved; white, conspicuously 
painted with interrupted lineated chestnut blotches, apex pink.

C. VAYSSETIANUS, Crosse, PI, 22, fig. 65.
