 Inhabits the coasts of the Philippine Islands. Favanne. 

 Shell two inches and a half long, and about half as broad ; of a 

 pale or sometimes a dark orange colour, marked with only 

 a few irregular white spots ; several authors have confounded 

 it with the variety B of C. Cedonulli, and considered them to 

 be the Linncean C. varius; to the former it is nearly allied, 

 and by Bruguiere's description appears to differ principally in . 

 being less elegantly marked, and in having the tubercles on 

 the spire placed nearer to the sutures, and the whirls not at 

 all concave.
