108 COLUMBELLA. 



mercatoria, but is probably a synonym of rustica. I suppose 

 that G. xiphiteUu, Duclos (fig. 55), and G. .ripliitella, Reeve (fig. 

 56), may both be placed here, although they are very different 

 shells in form. 



C. ANACTEOLA, Duclos. PI. 44, fig. 58. 



Shell smooth, the lower part with revolving stria 1 ; color 

 chocolate-brown varied with white, somewhat longitudinally 



disposed. Length, I'l inches. 



Habit Hi nnknoicn. 



This species has not been described ; there are only the figures 

 and name in Duclos' monograph. It resembles the stouter, short 

 forms of G. rustica, somewhat, but is a larger shell. 



C. MARMOREA, Brasilia. 



Shell small, ovately subturbinate, smooth, shining, with 

 flattened whorls ; aperture dilated at the base, sublinear, longer 

 than the spire; lip but little thickened within, nodulose ; colu- 

 mella with two tubercles; color marbled with fulvous and white, 

 with a white, maculated band at the suture. 



L. 10, diam. 5 mill. 



Dalmatia. 



An unfigured species, related to C. rustica, and possibly a 

 young individual of that protean species. 



C. PARDALINA, Lam. PL 44, figs. 59-74; PL 45, fig. 75. 



Shell oval, smooth, with moderate, somewhat convex spire ; 

 white, tessellated or longitudinally fiexuosely striped with chest- 

 nut or chocolate, with frequent!}" a white band, similarly tessel- 

 lated at the suture. Length, '75-1 inch.

The synonyms are: G.vulpecula, Sowb. (tig. 61); C. quintilia, 

 Duclos (figs. 62, 63); G. fabula, Sowb. (fig. 64); G. Japonica, 

 Reeve (fig. 65); C. zopilla, Duclos (fig. 0(5). 



Var. TYLERI, Gray. PL 44, figs. 67-74; PL 45, fig. 75. 



Only d lifers by having a more produced spire, and is readily 

 united with the typical form by such synonyms as ('. xayena, 

 Reeve (fig. 69 ', Japan. Other longer forms are (}. ohm-urn, Sowb. 

 (fig. 70); G. palmer ina, Duclos (fig. 71); G. lacfescens,$ouv. (fig.
