314 DAPHNELLA. 
D. suBVITREA, Smith. PI. 34, fig. 83. 
Ribs about eleven, disappearing a little below the middle of 
the body-whorl, the lower extremity of which is obliquely five or 
six striate, the two or three uppermost striz wider apart than the 
rest; subpellucid, white, with a thin indistinct brown line, inter- 
rupted by the costz around the lower part of the whorls, and a 
transparent pellucid zone at the top, with a second band or series 
of short flames just below the middle of the last whorl, which is 
stained with brown at the extremity. L. 4, width 1°5 mill. 
Japan. 
Dunker (Index Moll. Mar. Japan, 26) refers this shell to 
Columbella—in which I think he is correct. 
D. pouita, G. and H. Nevill. 
Smooth, white, with two bands of irregular opaque white 
flakes on each whorl, four on the last. Length, 3°5 mill. 
Mauritius. 
Described as a Zafra, but I think it may be referred to Colum- 
bella. If a Pleurotomid the specific name will need to be 
changed. 
D. semiscuteta, G. and H. Nevill. Pl. 34, figs. 14, 15. 
Ribs about twice as broad as their interstices (represented as 
narrower on the figures), obsolete on the back of the last whorl, 
which is transversely striated at its base; outer lip scarcely 
thickened or reflected, not as long as the columella, slightly 
emarginate at junction with the last whorl; horny brown 
throughout. Length, 3 mill. 
Burmah. 
Appears to me to be an Anachis, in Columbellide, although 
described as a Zafra. 
D. puporpEA, H. Adams. PI. 34, fig. 92. 
Numerously longitudinally ribbed, sinus short and wide; 
white, with a broad chestnut band below the periphery, and 
tinged with chestnut at the base. Length, 7 mill. 
New Hebrides.
