Specimens before me from Pinetown are -about typical in 

 size and form, length 14.5, diam. 4.4 mm., aperture 5 mm. 

 long, are of a greenish-corneous tint, rather opaque. The fine 

 striae are arcuate and stronger near the suture, almost obso- 

 lete on the base ; whorls 8y 2 , the first smooth, hemispherical. 

 The early whorls are just perceptibly attenuate. Suture 

 deeply impressed. The apex is small ; the diam. of the third 

 whorl 1 mm. Some eggs of these specimens are globular, 

 1.2 mm. in diam. 



E. turriformis sarissa n. subsp. PI. 10, figs. 84, 85. 



Shell perforate (more openly than in turriformis), acu- 

 minate-turrited, the upper fourth perceptibly contracted, the 

 apex small, obtuse; bluish-corneous under a very thin pale 

 yellowish cuticle, subtranslucent, the columellar axis faintly 

 visible through; thin, glossy. Sculpture of fine, irregular 

 wrinkles of growth, arcuate and strongest near the suture. 

 Whorls 10, moderately convex, separated by an impressed 

 suture, faintly margined by translucence below. Aperture 

 long-ovate, the outer lip arched forward above, somewhat re- 

 tracted basally. Columella nearly straight with triangularly 

 reflexed edge. Length 20.7, diam. 6, length of aperture 7 

 mm. ; diam. of iapex 1 mm.

This form is represented by a dozen specimens presented to 

 the Academy by John Cassin many years ago. It is in every 

 way larger than turriformis, more transparent, with more 

 whorls and a narrower aperture, but in other respects it 

 agrees closely.
