1 48 BULIM ULUS-BOSTR YX-PERON JEUS. 



Variable in size. The last whorl is compressed around the um- 

 bilicus, which is generally narrow and not deep. In some individ- 

 uals the umbilicus is very narrow, and the basal angle tends to dis- 

 appear. It is wider than the somewhat allied B.williamsi Pfr.

Shell compressed-perforate, oblong-turrited, rather solid, irre- 

 gularly striate or subrugulose, little shining, flesh-whitish, sometimes 

 marked with pale brownish linear streaks. Spire turrited, the apex 

 rather acute, suture impressed. Whorls 7-7 , the embryonal whorls 

 glabrous and subcorneous, the rest moderately convex, last whorl 

 scarcely two-fifths the length of shell, a little compressed at base. 



Aperture subvertical, oblong, brownish-fleshy inside ; peristome 

 simple, thin, the outer lip unexpanded, slightly arcuate above ; col- 

 umellar lip dilated above, reflexed, spreading over the perforation.

 is not angular at base.

Shell rimate, rather solid, oblong-turrited, irregularly and deli- 

 cately striatulate, shining, whitish. Spire turrited, the apex acute, 

 corneous, sometimes violaceous. Whorls 8, convex, the last shortly 

 attenuated at base, somewhat compressed around the narrow rima- 

 tion, and nearly three-sevenths the length of shell. 



Aperture oblong oval, tawny inside ; peristome simple, acute, un- 

 expanded, the outer margin lightly arcuate, columellar margin very 

 narrowly dilated above, reflexed. (Morel.).

A shell of variable size, uniform white outside, russet fawn color 

 within, with the margins of the peristome darker and the earlier two 

 whorls of a fawn or purple shade. It is engraved with superficial,
