Shell about two inches long, and half as broad, and has the 

 elevated stria? slightly granulated at the base in the same 

 manner as the Variety A of C. planorbis, from which it may 

 be distinguished by its rather more oblong shape, and by the 

 inside being white. It appears from his MSS. that Dr. 

 Solander, and also Kaemmerer as well as the authors above 

 referred to, considered Martini, t. 59- f- 659- to be the Lin- 

 naean C. Senator, but Born refers to t. 55. f. 609 to 611. 

 which is C. Catus of Bruguiere.

 Inhabits the coasts of St. Domingo, Fernambouca, the Isle of 



France, and Cape of Good Hope. Favanne. 

 Shell generally about an inch and a half long, and rather more 



than half as broad, and slightly ventricose ; it is sometimes 



of a brownish olive, or reddish with darker stripes or white 



spots, and the transverse convex strias or ribs are sometimes 



tubercular. Kaemmerer considered this to be a Variety of 



Martini's fig. 579 and 580, which according to Bruguiere, 



is the Linnaean C. Magus.
