UROSALP1NX. 155 



U. INNOTABILIS, E. A. Smith. PI. 70, fig. 439. 



Light brown, with two interrupted darker bands ; aperture 

 white within, the outer lip with about six teeth. 



Length, 20 mill. 



Japan. 



U. PAIVJE, Crosse. PL 39, figs. 495, 499. 



Ash-gray to cinereous, whitish or purple within the aperture. 

 Length, 1 inch. 



So. Australia : under stones at low-water. 



U. Hanleyi, Angas (fig. 499), is founded on elate specimens 

 of this species. It is not readily distinguished from U. Floridana, 

 Conrad. Yon Martens considers Fusus corticatus, Hutton, a 

 synonym of U. Paivae. 



U. FUSIFORMIS, A. Adams. PL 39, fig. 498. 



A yellowish brown shell, thirty millimetres in length. No 

 locality. Described as a Murex* but appears to be a Urosalpinx, 

 and remarkably similar to U. Floridana, Conrad, besides being- 

 very like U. Paivas, Crosse. 



U. ASSIST, Woods. 



Ovately fusiform, grayish olive ; whorls six, convex, angular 

 above, elegantly ribbed and peculiarly thickly striate lengthwise, 

 with very fine lamellose striae ; transversely conspicuously lirate, 

 lira' alternating and passing over the ribs; suture impressed; 

 ribs elevated, narrow, eleven in last whorl ; aperture ovate, outer 

 lip thin, acute, canal long-oblique, purple within. 



Length, 12 mill. 



N. Coast of Tasmania. 



In form resembling 1. Paivae, Crosse, and T. Hanleyi, Ang., 

 but easily distinguished by its long canal and peculiar lamellose 

 striations. 



The above is Woods' description. I doubt its distinctness 

 from U. Paivae, Crosse. It is probably a young shell. 



U. UMBILICATA, Woods. 



Ovate, yellow or pale chestnut, solid, spire raised ; whorls five 

 to six, angulate above and concave, conspicuously plicate length- 

 wise (eight in the last whorl), and transversely thickly lirate, 

 lira* alternating large and small, the larger flattened, squamately
