The lar.n'O luiniber ol" this attractive loini collected at St. Taul has 

 enabled me to select an extensive andbeaiitifiil series. The valves are 

 sometimes white with ])uri)l(' rays and zones, auain white, or yellowish 

 orange, with broad rays of purple; sometimes li^ht i»urple with darker 

 purple rays and zones, and some examples exhibit a purplish };rouud 

 with a p,laze of sienna yellow, overlay! n.i;' and tonin.ij- tlie color beneath. 

 The interior of the valves is often white, or white rayed with i)urple or 

 l)ink aud frequently dark purple witli the edi^e of the valves white 

 rimmed. One l)eautinil example is of a. clear delicate pink, tinj;ed 

 slif;htly with yellow, boumled t(»war<l the ventral edge by a broad band 

 of deep rose pink.
