MELVILL AND STANDEN : SHELLS FROM LIFU. 29 1 



outer lip, which is much incrassate within with seven prominent 

 denticles, these being provided with three also of lesser size. 

 The species comes near Glyphostoma disconicum Hervier (J. de 

 Conch., vol. 43, p. 48, published June, 1896), as regards the 

 transverse sulcus, but in many respects — eg, the mouth denticles 

 — it differs widely, so far as can be told by description alone, 

 without a figure. Several specimens. (^7raAeos, wonderful, 

 astonishing).

A conspicuous well-marked shell, though wholly plain 

 ochraceous, unredeemed by any particular marking. It is 

 fusiform, turreted, much impressed at the sutures, seven 

 whorled, the two apical being stained with pink, the lower 

 whorls are angled at the sutures above, regularly longitudinally 

 ribbed, the ribs rather thick, and transversely spirally lirate, 

 one large lira in the proportion of 2 : 1, the two smaller inter- 

 vening; the last whorl is tubercled at the base. Mouth sinuous 

 oblong. Sinus deep, outer lip very thick with double fimbriate 

 row of nodules without, and within seven or eight denticulate, 

 the columellar margin being simple. Very rare, two specimens 

 only. (Oeprjyavov, the wicker-basket of a cart, from the latticed 

 appearance).
