This shell resembles O. Blandiana. Its divergence in the 

 upper whorls is less than in that shell, but its mean divergence 

 is greater. 



7G. Oleacina perplexa. 



Shell ovate-fusiform, much elongated, almost transparent, pale 

 yellowish-brown, with transverse moderately curved lines of dark 

 brown, of which the last colours the labrum, three to four on 

 each whorl, wanting on the upper whorls, and scarcely percep- 

 tible at and above the middle of the spu-e ; with fine, not crowded, 

 transverse striae ; lines, which indicate the varices that are coin- 

 cident with the brown stripes, scarcely distinguishable from the 

 striae ; apex subacute, AAith nearly one and a half smooth whorls ; 

 spire much elongated, with the outlines moderately curvilinear ; 

 whorls about six and a half, moderately convex, with a well-im- 

 pressed suture ; aperture long, ovate, quite narrow and acute 

 above ; columella a little twisted, scarcely truncate. Length 0"3i{, 

 breadth 09 inch. {Adams.)

7". Oleacina vicixa. 



" Perhaps a variety of O. Phillipsii ; but the shell is furnished 

 with numerous longituchnal strite, never brown-banded ; the 

 infra-sutural line is more remote from the suture ; the si)ire is 

 shorter." Div. 22°: spire Ion. 03 : total Ion. 054, lat. 0-175

Shell oblong-tTu-reted, rather solid, \er\ closely costulate, dia- 

 phanous, shining, luteous-horny, remotely white-striped; spire 

 turreted ; suture marginate ; whorls eight, nearly level, the last 

 less than three-sevenths the length, imi)rcssed midway in front ; 

 columella vertical, abruptly truncated at the base of the aperture;
