This exquisitely delicate and beautiful shell, of which I have 
seen but the single specimen in my collection, differs from any 
other species known to me by the great number of its very fine 
and crowded varices. It is only about two-thirds the length of 
EH. multistriata Say of the same number of whorls, and the latter 
of this size has only one-half the number of varices. LE. apiculata
