86 fusus. 



cinoidea; spira elevata, anfractibus rotundis, liris prorninen- 

 tibus rubris et nonnunquam parvis intermediis, spiraliter dis- 

 tanter cinctis, longitudinaliter rotunde plicatis, apertura 

 ampla, margine crenato, canali brevi, extus varicoso. — The 

 form of this species is rather that of the genus Buccinum 

 than of Fusus ; it has some of the characteristics of the 

 present genus. 



93. mtristicds, f. 144, Reeve. — Testa flavida, subovata, 

 ventricosa, longitudinaliter angulatim plicata, spiraliter 

 sulcata, spira brevi, anfractibus brevibus, rotundis ; ultimo 

 magno, canali distincto, brevi, truncate — Possibly this doubt- 

 ful species may prove to belong to some other genus. 



94. angulatus, f. 130, Sowerby. — Testa quam F. ancepa 

 angustior, utrinque magis acuminata ; anfractibus superio- 

 ribus pallide eastaneo tincto. — The sculpture of this and the 

 following is similar, but the form of the present is more 

 elevated and acuminated. This has been named Pyrula 

 lignaria by Rue., a name we cannot conveniently adopt on 

 account of its previous application (although erroneous) to 

 the true corneus of Linnasus. 



95. anceps, f. 131, A. Adams. — Testa crassa, alba, ventri- 

 cosa, breviter quadrilatera, angulata, valide longitudinaliter 

 plicata, plicis nudatis, profunde spiraliter sulcata et lirata ; 

 anfractibus supra angulum declivibus, brevibus ; apertura 

 intus lirata, margiue crenulato ; labio interno incrassato ; 

 canali brevissimo, latissimo, extus expanso. 



96. turbinelloides, f. 83, Reeve. — Testa trapezoidea, tenuis, 

 flavide fulva, fusco lineata, spiraliter sulcata ; spira acumi- 

 nata, anfractibus depressis, angulatis, ad angulum acute 

 tuberculatis, supra angulum declivibus ; apertura subpyri- 

 formi, alba, canali brevi, lato. — A lighter and smoother shell 

 than others of similar form. 



97. tornatus, f. 118, Gould. — Testa lyrata simili, sed 

 tenuior, anfractibus rotundis, liris tenuiusculis, spira magis 

 exserta. — Although this species has the whorls rounded, 

 while those of F. lyratus are angular, it is quite possible 

 that specimens will be found passing from one to the other. 

 F. subantiquatus, Pennant, may probably be a variation of 

 F. tornatus. 



98. heptagonalis, f. 132, Reeve. — Testa crassa, castanea, 

 oblique quadrilatera, medio angulata, late longitudinaliter
