ACT.EON. 155 



Wood, but has a shorter body-whorl and mouth ; the rise of the 

 whorls in the spire is more scalar, and the apex is stumpier, with 

 a coarser tip. ( Wats.).

 umella is twisted and the s})ire less tapering.

I have no knowledge of this species except from the original de- 

 scription. It seems to have been overlooked by writers on Mediter-
