three or more transverse compressed folds.

36, fig. 7, Guéirtn Iconogr., Moll. Pl. 20, fig. 9;—Turbin. craticulata 
Lam., Murex craticulatus L., Eneycl. méth., Vers. Pl. 429, fig. 3. With 
the exception of this species, LiInN@US in the last edition of the Syst. nat. 
brings the species of this genus known to him to Voluta, The species are 
numerous and resemble in form either Fusus or Pirula, from which they 
differ by the transversely striped columella alone. 
Cancellaria LAM. Shell oval or turrite, mostly reticulate with 
transverse stripes and longitudinal ruge. Aperture ending in a 
short canal. Columella with transverse folds; labrum furrowed 
internally.

fig. 1, &c. CuUviER regarded this genus as a sub-division of Voluta; 
DESHAYES is inclined to place it in the neighbourhood of Tornatella. There 
is no operculum present. Many fossil species from the tertiary formations 
are known.
