COPS 
Genus PUSIONELLA, Gray, 1847. 
P. vALIDA, Dunker. Pl. 31, figs. 9,10. 
Shell smooth, ponderous, whorls 11-12, flatly rounded, with 
two or three striz around the upper portion, and several at the 
base of the body-whorl; light yellowish brown. 
Length, 3 inches. 
Pacific Ocean ? (Dunker). 
This is probably a West African shell as are all the other 
species of the genus, except P. rapulum. I suspect that the 
young shell which Philippi calls Fusus candidus (fig. 10), may 
belong here; it is W. African. 
P. ACULEIFORMIS, Lam. PI. 31, figs. 2, 3. 
Shell elongated, spire-whorls more or less plicately ribbed, 
sometimes only the upper ones; body-whorl smooth except at 
the base, where there are revolving grooves; very light grayish 
yellow, or yellowish brown, or chestnut. Length, 1°75 inches. 
| W. Africa. 
P. Catelini, Petit (fig. 3), is a shouldered variety ; many of the 
specimens exhibit some shoulder on the whorls. 
P. vuLPINA, Born. PI. 31, figs. 4-6. 
Shell stouter than the preceding species, no longitudinal ribs, 
upper part of the whorls with two or three engraved revolving
