A handsome species, of which two specimens were received 

 by Mr. John Brazier from the Solomon Islands. The type 

 is now in Mr. Melvill's collection ; the other specimen, which 

 I have not seen, remains at Sydney in Mr. Brazier's collec- 

 tion. The body of the shell is delicately coloured, and very 

 sparingly spotted, but the spire is very boldly marked and 

 handsome.
