costulate-striate, opaque, pale corneous. Spire a little taper- 

 ing above, the 13 remaining whorls rather flattened, the last 

 shortly free in front, more strongly costulate-striate, angular 

 at the base. Aperture oblique, subcircular, the peristome 

 white, equally expanded and a little reflexed throughout. 

 Internal column with 3 lamellae in the median whorls, the 

 upper one wider; in the last whorl there are 2 lamellae 

 (Gundl. in Arango). Length 17, diam. 3 mm.; diam. apert. 

 2.5 mm.

 from Gundlach mss.). 



Probably belongs to Liocallonia, but the description of the 

 axis also fits some of the U. elegans group.

Differs from Cyl. blainiana by having the riblets the color 

 of the shell, and the internal columella 3-lamellate, the upper 

 lamella larger (while in blainiana it is nearly simple) 

 (Arango) .

74. U. INFORTUNATA (Arango). PL 48, figs. 11, 14, 15. 

 Shell cylindrical, the upper third tapering to a rather wide 



truncation; thin, corneous, subtransparent. Surface glossy, 

 sculptured with thread-like riblets, separated by intervals of 

 double or three times their width, somewhat stronger on the 

 neck. Whorls convex, the last rounded below, grooved below 

 the axial chink, produced in a slightly descending neck in 

 front. Aperture circular, oblique, the lip thin, narrowly 

 reflexed. Axis with three lamellae, the upper one much the 

 larger in the intermediate whorls, middle lamella smallest, 

 lower lamella with distant delicate spines, which are wanting 

 in the two lower whorls (fig. 14).
