These shells, as are indeed most others from the Wabash River, are singularly 

 beautiful and perfect. Even the largest and oldest examples present perfect um- 

 bones, with epidermis and apical crenulations entire. It is rare indeed to find 

 these forms so perfect. Both this species and ZTnio metanervus, which are charac- 

 terized by peculiar arrow-shaped green color-markings over the whole disk, pre- 

 sent this feature in singular beauty. The State Collection, at Indianapolis, con- 

 tains several well-marked and beautiful specimens,
