16. Odostomia insculpta. 



Turbo*divisus, Adams in Linn. Trans, iii. 254 ?

17. Odostomia dolioliformis. 



Testa ovalis, Dolio Perdix forma assimilans^ tenuis^ pellucida, 

 alba, circa 20 striis undulatis transversim exarata ; anfractus 4, 

 ventricosi, subproducti, ad apicem cuj usque complaiiati, ultimo f 

 testae sequaute ; apex subacutus ; sutura profunda ; apertura ro- 

 tundato-ovalis, subtus vix efFusa, angulo exteriore superne in 

 ultimum anfractum inflexa ; columella fere recta ; peristoma retro 

 subreflexum et incrassatum ; umbilicus parvus, angustus ; den- 

 ticulus validus, conspicuus. Long, jj, lat. gV ^^c. 



Hab. Exmouth (Mr. Clark). Swansea shore; Tenby; Sandwich; 

 Scarborough. Rare. 



This shell can scarcely be the Turbo Sandvicensis of Mont, 

 (from Walker), because that is described as " elegantly reticu- 

 lated.^' It is extremely difficult to say what many of Walker^s 

 shells are, by reason of his descriptions and figures being so very 

 indistinct. 



The fry of this species is, I believe, the Helix resupinata of 

 Montagu (p. 444), from Walker^s figure 24.
