Dall has “the interspaces on the last two whorls quite smooth;” 
in our shell they are densely microscopically striate. Dr. Dall’s 
species, too, has but ten varices on the last whorl. 
Ihave named our shell in honor of Stephen Elliott, the botanist, 
Say’s friend and correspondent.

Shell small, slender, aciculate, pale brownish white; whorls about twelve, 
very slightly convex, with about thirty rounded ribs extending from just 
below the suture above quite to the suture below, which disappear on 
the anterior portion of the body whorl; suture well marked; on the cen- 
ter of each whorl there are three equidistant deeply incised revolving 
lines, interrupted by the ribs, and just above the suture there is another 
equally incised line which is doubled on the last whorl, the lower one 
disappearing in the suture; the base of the shell is rounded and shows 
exceedingly faint traces of very fine revolving lines; aperture suboval, 
columella straight; pillar lip somewhat reflected and forming a slight 
umbilical chink; parietal wall covered with a callous deposit. Length 
about 10 mm. Diam. 1.5 mm. 
A single imperfect specimen of this shell was found on the 
beach at Sullivan’s Island. The nuclear whorls are lost and the
