anterior end of the moutli ; at the extremity is a prominent

 PI. 29, Fig. 235. 



SHELL moderate in size, thin, ovoid, most prominent about 

 one-third of the length from the upper end, the sides gradually 

 curving downwards and approaching to near the anterior end, 

 when they curve rapidly inwards ; summit umbilicated. Mouth 

 broad, the upper end projecting a short distance above the pre 

 ceding whorl, and regularly rounded; anterior end broad, pro 

 duced; outer lip simple, thin; inner lip unknown, apparently 

 not incrusted, covered in such a manner by the matrix, espe 

 cially in advance, as to hide the characters. Surface marked by 

 numerous, very fine, impressed, revolving lines. 



Figure, slightly magnified. 



Locality: A single specimen was found by Dr. Horn, near Fort Tejon. 



The shorter and more convex outline will serve to distinguish this species from 

 Cylichna costata, which is also found at the same locality. A further difference is 

 to be found in the sculpture, the lines, in this species, being much further apart 

 than in the other ; the shell is also much thinner. 



I take great pleasure in dedicating this species to the discoverer, to whom I am 

 indebted for many fine specimens, not a small portion of which were new to me.
