 naliter rugoso-plicata ; suturis canaliculatis ; anfractibus ad suturas 

 crenulatis. Apertura semicircularis, peritremate continuo ; labio

In this curious little form, which I referred to Isanda (not 

 haviug the type of that genus to compare with it), the peritreme 

 is continuous, and the outer lip thickened — characters which 

 prevent its being referred to any existing genus.

 cata. Apertura subquadrata ; labio rectiusculo, antice dilatato ;
