146 PISANIA. 



The typical form is well represented by its synonyms, P. picta, 

 Reeve (fig. 190), P. flammulata, Quoy (fig. 191), and P. buccinu- 

 lum, Martini. 



P. MOESTUM, Phil. 



A small, unfigured species, the locality of which is unknown. 

 It has revolving sulci, the intermediate spaces being articulated 

 with white upon a dark brown ground. The description is not 

 sufficient for positive identification witli P. pu#io or ignea. 



P. KOSSMANNI, Pagenstecher. -PI. 71, fig. 196. 



Described from a distorted specimen which is said to resemble 

 P. pusio, but shows within the aperture eight brown revolving 



bands. Length, 30 mill. 



Red Sea. 

 A doubtful species. 



P. FASCICULATA, Reeve. PI. 71, figs. 195, 197- 



Orange-yellow, the narrow revolving riblets chestnut-color 



dotted with white. Length, 1*25-1*5 inches. 



Philippines. 



P. crenilabrum, A. Adams, described in error as from the West 

 Indies, is apparently a mere color variation of this species ; it is 

 found at New Caledonia, and probably equals P. Monlrouzieri, 

 Crosse, the latter name having priority. If my surmise prove 

 correct, the latter may be distinguished as 



Yar. MONTROUZTERI, Crosse. PI. 71, fig. 197. 



Color purple-brown, with darker revolving riblets, sometimes 

 obsolete; an obscure white, irregular band on the periphery, 



riblets sometimes white spotted. 



Neir Cult don i. 



P. STRTGATA, Pease. PI. 71, fig. 198. 



Orange or light brown, mottled and spotted with white, incised 

 revolving lines darker ;, upper whorls granular ; aperture white. 



Length, 37 mill. 



Tnsl. Ponape. 



P. HERMANNSENT, A. Adams. PI. 71, fig. 199. 



Smooth, fulvous, obscurety punctate with white ; body-whorl 



sulcated below. Length, 1*5 inches.
