150 EUTHRTA. 



E. ARACANENSIS, Angas. 'PL 72, fig. 220. 



Pale olivaceous brown, with longitudinal irregular, chestnut 

 markings ; aperture pale flesh-color. Length, 2 inches. 



Aracan. 



Appears very like a Siphonalia, and is tfre most ponderous 

 species of the genus. 



E. PLUMBEA, Phil. PI. 72, figs. 221-226. 



Smooth, or upper whorls slightly co state in fresh specimens ; 

 ashy brown, sometimes light ch6colate. 



Length, T25 to 1*5 inches. 



(Jape llorti to Chili ; Japan. 



Var. FEBREA, Reeve. PI. 72, fig. 223. 



Spirally lineated with brown. 



Japan. 



E. ferrva, Reeve, and E. viridiila, Bunker (fig. 225), from 

 Japan, are doubtless the same as E. plumbed, notwithstanding 

 the great difference of locality : that of plumbea being undoubt- 

 edly as quoted. As to the identity offerrea and plumbea, P. 1*. 

 Carpenter and A. Adams, admit it, whilst E. A. Smith makes 

 viridula = ferrea. To these synonyms I add Fas us rufus, 

 Hombr. et Jacq. (fig. 222) Buccinum Mdgellanicum, Phil. (fig. 

 224), and B. Patagonicum, Phil. (fig. 226), from Cape Horn. 



E. SIMONIANA, Petit. PL 72, fig. 227 



Whitish (stained greenish) with reddish brown flames, spir- 

 ally lirate, lime plano-convex ; brownish within the aperture. 



Length, 48 mill. 



Cape of Good Hope. 



The color is difficult to ascertain, says M. Petit, on account 

 of a stain resulting from the waters where it lives. 



E. ANTARCTICA, Reeve. PL 72, fig. 228. 



Whorls strongly plicately ribbed towards the apex, ribs of the 

 last whorl fading away ; epidermis thick, olive ; interior purple- 

 brown, columella and inner edge of lip white. Length, 1-3 inch. 



Falkland Islands. 



Its pertinence to this genus, where it is placed by H. and A. 

 Adams, is doubtful.
