E. Testa oblongd; spird elatd, apice acuto, anfradibm angulosis; angulis acutis et 

 prominentibus, superne tabulatis, infcrne planis; aperturd ma^nd, labro sinistro excavato et 

 umbilicato. 



Shell oblong, spire elevated, its apex acute, volutions angulated, the angles acute and 

 prominent, the upper surfaces of the whorls nearly flat, but rising a little towards the 

 suture, the lower portion flattened; aperture large, inner lip excavated with an open 

 umbilicus. 



This species most nearly resembles E. canaliculata, but in the present shell the spire 

 is very much more elevated ; the upper surfaces of the whorls are not channelled, and their 

 lower portions are not convex. 



Locality. Minchinhampton. It is very rare, and has been found only in the planking. 

 Length 18 lines, breadth 15 lines.

EUSPIRA PYRAMIDATA. Plate VI, fig. 8, 8a. 



E. Testa ovatd, spird data, pyramidatd, apice acuminate, anfradibus (4) anffulatis; 

 angulo in carinam obtusam producto; anfractibus superne tabulatis, in/erne planis, aperturd 

 ovatd, basi rotundatd,jissurd angustd. 



Shell ovate, spire elevated, pyramidal, apex pointed, whorls (4) angulated, the angle 

 forming an obtuse carina ; upper surface of the whorls tabulated, lower flattened, aperture 

 ovate, base rounded, umbilical fissure narrow. 



In this species the spire and aperture are nearly of equal length, beneath the angle of 

 the body whorl a slight depression is perceptible ; the flattened upper area of the whorls 

 is naiTow compared with the other contemporaneous species. 



Locality. Minchinhampton. It occurs in the planking, and is rare.
