CHILINA RUSHII Pilsbry. 



(Plate XLV, Figs. 31-34.) 



Chilina rushii Pils., Proc. A. N. S. Phila., 1896, p. 561, pi. 26, figs. 6, 7. 

 This species is closely related to C. fluminea, but differs by the acute 

 keel at the shoulder. This keel arises rather abruptly at the end of the 

 second whorl ; and either runs to the end, or after continuing for several 

 whorls, gradually dies out, leaving the last whorl rounded, as in fig. 33. 

 In a young shell 4.3 mm. long, with yA whorls, the last whorl only is 

 acutely carinate.
