lines, diminishing in breadth from the top to the base of each whorl. 

 They are crossed by numerous fine elevated striae, which are broad and 

 indistinct, or obsolete on the spiral lines, but sharp and distinct in the 

 interstices. 



Locality. Claiborne, Ala, 



In its sculpture the species is remarkably similar to Scalaria (Eglisia) 

 vincta, Desh.,* but it is much larger. 



EGLISIA REGULARIS, n. sp. PI. 2, fig. 3. 



Whorls rather rapidly increasing in size, regularly rounded ; covered 

 by four sharp elevated revolving lines, the uppermost of which is the 

 smallest ; the interstices with numerous transverse riblets, which in con- 

 nection with the revolving lines give to the surface an almost cancellate 

 appearance. 



Locality. Red Bluff, Miss. 



EGLISIA INAEQUISTRIATA, n. sp. PL 2, fig. 4. 



The only specimen found, a fragment of two whorls, has less rounded 

 whorls than the preceding species; they are covered by six revolving 

 strise, alternating in size and far less elevated than in Eglisia regu/aris; 

 the little riblets in the interstices are similar to those in the preceding 

 species ; aperture rounded ; subeffuse anteriorly ; base flattened, spirally 

 striated. 



Locality. Red Bluff, Miss. 



CJECUM SOLITARIUM, n. sp. PI. 3, fig. 9. 

 Cazcum, sp., Am. Jour. Sci., XXX., 1885, p. 71. 



Small, regularly curved, somewhat contracted at the aperture ; section 

 and aperture circular; smooth, except concentric rings of growth. 

 Locality. Vicksburg, Miss.; "Lower Vicksburgian." 



CRUCIBULUM ANTIQUUM, n. sp. PL 1, fig. 11. 



Subconical ; margin oval, striate within ; diaphragm entire ; rhombical, 

 close to the shell. 



Locality. Claiborne, Ala. 



The surface of the single specimen is badly preserved If I am not 

 mistaken it is the first Crucibulum found in the Old Tertiary Formation.
