 1841, p. 275. 



N. testa N.pulligerm simili, sed nigra; labio externo ad apicem 

 decumbente, labio interiio siibconvexo. 



Eesembling N. puUigera and N. Knorrii, but differing from the 

 former in the absence of tlie raised ridge on the apex, and from 

 both in the columella being rather convex. The outside is black, 

 and the margin of the outer lip is banded with deep orange.

 Tank. Cat. no. 1094. Conch. lU. f. 22. 



"N. testa ovata; spira brevissima, obtecta; labio externo in 

 canalem ad sinistram inchnatam producto ; labio columellari auran- 

 tiaco, obsolete subdenticulato ; epidermide nigerrima." 



Of the same form as N. pidligera, but the left side of the inner 

 lip not at all callous. The epidermis is very thick and black ; 

 there is a curve in the upper part of the outer lip, which is raised 

 into a ridge at the apex ; there is a grove between the outer lip 

 and the upper part of the columella.

N. testa N. canali simillima, sed transverse magis elongata ; 

 labio externo superne undato, ad apicem decumbente. 



Longer in the transversely oblique direction than N, canalis ;

 that species, but is not raised in a ridge on the apex.
