Shell very much depressed, very thin, hyaline-glassy, somewhat 

 opalescent, shining; striated with flexuous growth lines, obsoletely 

 decussated with spirals. Spire minute, flat, scarcely papiHar ; whorls

 Aperture very oblique ; peristorne with the right margin sinuously 

 produced, the basal margin with a broad membranous margin. 

 Alt. about 3^, greatest diam. 12, lesser 9 mill. 



Animal pale greenish-buff, pellucid, ornamented with very fine

This species is very much depressed and very fragile, with the
