N. testa oblique ovali, tenui, fulvu, lineis nigris undulatis ob- 

 scure picta; spira subconica, anfractibus declivis, ultimo ad sutu-

Rather oval, but obKquely ventricose at the base, and tapering

 Rev. ZooL, 1841, p. 313. 



N. t-esta N. Anate.nsi simili, sed crassiore, apice obtusiusculo, 

 anfractibus ad suturam magis tumidis. 



Like N. Anatensis (Sp. 93), but more obtuse, thicker, with the 

 whorls more tumid near the suture.

95. Nekitina glabrata (pi. cxvi. L^hQ-'itQ^),Sowerb9/,junr., 

 Pro. Zool. Soc, 1850. 



N. testa parvcx, oblique ovali, glabra, plerumque pallide fulva, 

 lineis fasciisque rubris vel iiigi-is varie picta; spirii obtusa, apice 

 obtuso, subjaterali, anfr-actibus vix duobus, ultimo superne decKvo, 

 inferne oblique subgibboso ; apertura parva, semilunari, bicanali- 

 culato ; labio externo superne declivo, inferne oblique producto ; 

 columella expansa, laevigata, rotundata, gibbosa, alba, Operculo 

 parvo, corneo, subgriseo. 



A beautiful little shining shell, variously banded, lineated, and 

 spotted mtli white, black, and red, on a light fawn-coloured 

 ground. It is remarkably obhque, witli an obtuse spire of scarcely 

 two whorls, and the aperture small, obliquely produced at the 

 lower part ; the columella is wliite, sinooth, and gibbous, in ex- 

 pansion forming about three-fourths of a circle. 



There are many specimens of this elegant and very distinct 

 species in Mr. Cuming's Collection ; but the locahty is unknown
