Charleston Bar, So. Carolina. 



A single specimen from the stomach of a black-fish. Is very 

 probably synonymous with C. Hotessieri, d'Orb., and C. Pretrii, 

 Duclos. In the event of their proving identical, the latter name 

 must be adopted, having priority of publication.

 revolving striae; spire sharp, composed of seven, flat whorls,
