  Our 
  specimens 
  being 
  old, 
  with 
  the 
  sculpture 
  eroded, 
  we 
  are 
  

   unable 
  to 
  determine 
  confidently 
  what 
  the 
  species 
  is, 
  it 
  being 
  

   unfortunately 
  the 
  custom 
  in 
  this 
  genus 
  and 
  in 
  Giama 
  to 
  describe 
  

   and 
  figure 
  little 
  more 
  than 
  those 
  exterior 
  characters 
  which 
  are 
  

   very 
  rarely 
  found 
  in 
  perfection. 
  One 
  of 
  the 
  most 
  permanent 
  

   characters 
  of 
  this 
  species 
  is 
  the 
  broad 
  deep 
  red 
  purple 
  finely 
  

   wrinkled 
  limb 
  of 
  the 
  otherwise 
  white 
  interior.
