In the series of specimens before me from New South Wales 

 (Cox), Sandwich Is. (Pease) and Japan (Stearns), I am unable to 

 see differences of any specific value. The absolute size, the eleva- 

 tion of the spire, the prominence of the obsolete columellar folds and 

 the width of the umbilical perforation vary somewhat, but in my 

 opinion the supposed species lineata, siczacand lauta are not distinct 

 from the widely distributed Indo-Pacific B. scabra. 



B. BRUGuiERi A. Adams. PI. 45, figs. 23, 24. 



Shell oval, ventricose, perforated. Pink, with two yellowish- 

 white bands, crossed by longitudinal pink undulating lines; trans- 

 versely ribbed, ribs flat, rough ; interstices with elevated longitudi- 

 nal lines. Spire prominent, apex obtuse. Whorls 3, rounded. 

 Aperture narrowly ovate, anteriorly produced ; outer lip acute, 

 grooved internally ; inner lip posteriorly thin, reflected, adnate, 

 anteriorly twisted (Ad,).

 (1855 ?). — SowB., in Conch. Icon., xviii, pi. 1, f. 3, 1870. 



I have not seen this form, which seenis to be distinguished from 

 B. scabra by its longer spire and broad spiral bands. 



B. vitrea Pease. PL 45, figs. 25, 26. 



Shell ovate, thin, fragile, white, with or without one or two sets of 

 two or three fine transverse black lines on body whorl, transversely 

 finely grooved ; interstices punctured ; spire obtuse ; apex acute ; 

 whorls four; aperture oval, dilated at the base; slight fold at the 

 base of the columella (not imperforate, umbilicated). (Pse.).
