150 Rev. Canon Norman's Revision 



This -would certainly seem to be the Buccinum rugosion, 

 Linn, (nee Gmelin). Hidalgo, in support of this view, draws 

 special attention to the words italicized in the following 

 description of Linn^ : — '' Testa magnitudine ovi, alba, striis 

 transversis, elevatis, numerosissimis, confertissimis : quarum 

 sexfa (a sutura spirali) crassi'or, tuberculis constituens cingu- 

 lum. Ppira onmino ovata, acuta. Cauda exserta, leviter 

 ascendens. Labrum marginatum, intus ineequaliter tubercu- 

 latum. Labium inferius late explanatum, i7i ipsa fau.ce in- 

 cpquole. Crypto, inter testam et labium interius, profunda. 

 Bonanni, Eecr. 3, fig. 160." 



This description seems clearly to apply to the present 

 species and not to a variety of Cassidaria echinophorus. For 

 fuller observations on the subject see Hidalgo's work.
