 gitudinally striate, sinus rather large ; whitish, stained with

Philippines. 



Yery closely allied to D. axis, Reeve, but only one-third the 

 size of the figure of that species, if the latter be not magnified. 



D. TICAONICA, Reeve. PL 26, fig. 84. 



Whorls rather ventricose, spirally irregularly ridged, inter- 

 stices between the ridges very minutely latticed, sinus small ; 

 whitish, flamed here and there with orange-brown. 



Length, 12 mill. 



Philippines. 



The figure of the above species exhibits some slight peculiar- 

 ities, yet 1 suspect that all the forms having similar carinated 

 sculpture and flamed coloring should be referred to one species.
