*This shell reminds us of a young olivvla. Con., but differs from that species in texture, 

 t Differs from ebenum, Lea, in being smaller, narrower, and more angulate at the periphery. 

 J Lighter olored and more rounded than iostoma, Anthony. Mr. Lea considers that species to 

 be identical with ebfnum. 

 I Simplex, Say ?
