picia, 7-adiatim cosiata ; cosiis 26, platudcitis, iptiinde coii- 

 spicue iwdiilosis ; interstitiis aiii^mfis, /riuiirersi/n siihatis : 

 Jinibones proininentes ; pagina intenia alba, ntriinjiie fiisco 

 tincta. 



Atitero-post. 12, umbono-rnarg. 12. 



Hab. Port Elizabeth. 



This species is quoted by me — ' Marine Shells of 



South Africa,' p. 61 — as C. fasciatum from worn valves 



found at Port Elizabeth. Having now seen shells in better 



preservation (though still only odd valves) I am convinced 



of my error. The nodules are easily worn off, leaving the 



ribs smooth.
