One dead specimen was found, differing from the most 

 dwarfed varieties of P. insiguis in the above characters. It is 

 of a uniform reddish brown, and apparently had very fine 

 striula3 between the ribs. It is at once known from P. gem- 

 mata by the tumidity of the whirls. It has the general aspect 

 of Buccinum biliratum, Rve. Conch Ic pi. 10, sp. 71 (Galapagos, 

 Cwming), but differs in sculpture. It may be a dwarf B. 

 pagodus ; but the Cumingian type is not at present accessible ; 

 and it is rarely safe, in critical cases, to identify from the 

 figures and descriptions in the Conch. Ic. alone. Long. '98, 

 long. spir. "45, lat. '54, div. 50".
