Genus STRAPAROLLINA. (N. gen.) 



G-eneric characters. Shell turbinated, with round or obscurely angu- 

 lated whorls ; spire varying from obtusely to acutely conical ; aperture 

 nearly circular, sometimes with a notch in the inner lower angle of 

 the lip. 



This group appears to stand between Straparollus and Holopea. The 

 species known are S.pelagica and those figured in the Geology of Canada 

 on p. 144, under the names of Straparollus asperostriatus, S. Circe, 

 and S. Eurydice.

Pig, 205. 

 Fig. 205. Straparollina pelagica. 



Description. Shell turbinate, pyramidal ; spire of four or five mode- 

 rately- ventrieose whorls ; apical angle between 65 and 70 ; base convex. 

 The body whorl is obscurely rounded angular at the margin, just above 

 which there are indications of a faint concave band ; thence moderately 

 ventrieose to the suture. Below the margin the whorls are depressed 

 convex or somewhat flattened. The umbilicus is about one-fourth the 

 whole width, with an angular elevated carina on the edge ; whorls within 

 the umbilicus nearly flat, all of them exposed to the apex. Surface 

 obscurely striated parallel to the edge of the aperture, the latter obscurely 

 rhomboidal. 



Length of the largest specimen 10 lines ; width 9 lines. 



Locality and Formation. Gr, H, Pistolet Bay, and Cape Norman, 

 Newfoundland ; Quebec group. 



Collector. J. Richardson.
