 Inhabits the coasts of the Isle of France, Amboyna, the Philip- 

 pines, Java, &c. Favanne. 

 Shell varying in length from an inch and a half, to two inches 



and a half, and the breadth is about two fifths of the length ; 



all the Varieties are marked with numerous white or pale 



transverse dotted lines, particularly on the dark longitudinal 



bands, and they agree better with the Linna?an description 



than C. Augur, which has hardly any claim to be placed 



among the elongated shells, except from its resemblance in 



other respects to the present species.
