192 . ENGINA. 



E. ROSEA, Reeve. PI. 62, figs. 34, 35. 



Rose-color zoned with dark chocolate ; aperture rose-color. 



Length, 15-21 mill. 



West Indies; Philippines (Cuming). 



E. Schrammi, Crosse (fig. 35), was described from a small 

 specimen 9 mill. long. The West Indian habitat Is attested 

 by specimens before me from three different islands ; that of the 

 Philippines needs confirmation. When the shell becomes water- 

 worn, the pink coloring has changed to white, the dark chocolate 

 to light chestnut. 



E. RUTILA, I^eeve. PL 62, fig. 36. 



Shell grayish pink, with dark chocolate zones. 



Length, 21 mill. Habitat unknown. 



I suspect that this will prove a synonym of the preceding 

 species. 



E. DEFORMIS, Reeve. PI. 62, fig. 37. 



Alternately banded with reddish yellow and brown. 

 Length, IT mill. HaUtat unknown. 



I think this will also prove to be a synonym of E. rosea. 



E. FARINOSA, Gould. PI. 62, fig. 40. 



Distantly longitudinally ribbed, and spirally granularly 

 striated ; yellowish brown, with indistinct dusky bands. 



Length, 15 mill. Sandwich Islands. 



Hindsia angicostata, Pease, and Triton eleyans, Thompson, 

 are synonyms. The latter was said to have been discovered 

 living in Dublin Bay, an obvious error. 



E. TURBINELLA, Kiener. PI. 62, figs. 38, 39. 



Spire conical, with a row of tubercles above the suture, the 

 latter forming an angle on the last whorl, and below it several 

 thin raised lines which are sometimes subnodulous ; surface 

 between these lines, and on the spire covered with fine revolving 

 strise ; dark chocolate, the tubercles, and occasionally the inferior 

 nodules white ; aperture usually chocolate, with the teeth white. 



Length, 15 mill. 



West Indies. 



Engina elegans, Gray, an unfigured species, may almost 

 certainly be assigned here.
